Add an option to build and install the fwumdata tool on the target.

fwumdata allows to read, display and modify the FWU (Firmware Update)
metadata from Linux userspace, similarly to what fw_printenv/fw_setenv
do for the U-Boot environment. It can be used to change the
active/previous bank indices, the bank states or the image acceptance
flags, e.g. by an update agent after writing a new firmware bank.

The location of the metadata is read from /etc/fwumdata.config, which
is platform specific and is therefore not installed by the package: it
has to be provided, for example, by a rootfs overlay.
