d9055f5e4f bootstd: Add a simple command to list images
Add a new 'bootstd images' command, which lists the images which have
been loaded.

Update some existing tests to use it. Provide some documentation about
images in general and this command in particular.

Use a more realistic kernel command-line to make the test easier to
follow.

3809fd35a5 bootstd: Add command to enable setting of bootmeth specific properties
We have previously added logic to allow a "fallback" option to be
specified in the extlinux configuration. Provide a command that allows
us to set this as the preferred default option when booting.

Combined with the bootcount functionality, this allows the "altbootcmd"
to provide a means of falling back to a previously known good state
after a failed update. For example, if "bootcmd" is set to:

    bootflow scan -lb

We would set "altbootcmd" to:

    bootmeth set extlinux fallback 1; bootflow scan -lb

Causing the boot process to boot from the fallback option.
