This makes a lot more sense; we can parse a firmware and export the same XML
we would use in a .builder.xml file. This allows us to two two things:
* Check we can round trip from XML -> binary -> XML
* Using a .builder.xml file we can check ->write() is endian safe
This has better multi-core performance and can run in persistent mode -- which
allows us to construct a test harness of all the parsers (which takes time) and
then just reuse the process for lots of different data.
At the moment there are commands to convert one file format to another, but not
to 'merge' or alter them. Some firmware files are containers which can store
multiple images, each with optional id, idx and addresses.
This would allow us to, for instance, create a DfuSe file with two different
raw files that are flashed to different addresses on the SPI flash. It would
also allow us to create very small complicated container formats for fuzzing.
This can be used by writing a `firmware.builder.xml` file like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<firmware gtype="FuBcm57xxFirmware">
<version>1.2.3</version>
<image>
<version>4.5.6</version>
<id>header</id>
<idx>456</idx>
<addr>0x456</addr>
<filename>header.bin</filename>
</image>
<image>
<version>7.8.9</version>
<id>payload</id>
<idx>789</idx>
<addr>0x789</addr>
<data>aGVsbG8=</data>
</image>
</firmware>
...and then using something like:
# fwupdtool firmware-convert firmware.builder.xml firmware.dfu builder dfu
