James Hilliard 928cc5dc5c package/uboot-tools: fix host FIT signature support
U-Boot host tools use the tools configuration namespace when code calls
CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(). With USE_HOSTCC, CONFIG_IS_ENABLED(FIT_SIGNATURE)
resolves to CONFIG_TOOLS_FIT_SIGNATURE, while
CONFIG_VAL(FIT_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE) resolves to
CONFIG_TOOLS_FIT_SIGNATURE_MAX_SIZE.

The host-uboot-tools package only generates the old CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE
define. This makes tools/Makefile include fit_check_sign, but the host code
sees FIT signature support as disabled and the OpenSSL-backed signing and
verification objects are omitted. As a result, mkimage accepts a signature
node without writing its value or injecting a required public key.
fit_check_sign then has no required key and reports success without
checking the configuration signature.

A FIT-support-only configuration never exercises this path, which is why
the existing hash-only runtime test still passes.

Generate the tools FIT signature options needed by the host code and pass
CONFIG_TOOLS_LIBCRYPTO=y so the OpenSSL-backed signing, verification and
cipher objects are selected. Keep CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE=y in the make
options because U-Boot tools/Makefile still uses it to build
fit_check_sign.

Extend TestHostUbootTools to create an RSA-signed FIT, require a 256-byte
configuration signature and a required public key, verify the FIT, corrupt
the signature, and require verification to fail.
