Changes
=======

- Re-enabling support for the External System using linux remoteproc (only supporting switching on and off the External System)
- UEFI Secure Boot and Authenticated Variable support
- RSE Comms replaces OpenAMP
- The EFI System partition image is now created by the meta-arm build system.
  This image is mounted on the second MMC card by default in the FVP.
- The capsule generation script is now part of the meta-arm build system.
  Corstone1000-flash-firmware-image recipe generates a capsule binary using the U-Boot capsule generation tool that includes
  all the firmware binaries and recovery kernel image.
- SW components upgrades
- Bug fixes
