This implements the equivalent of the COMPATIBLE_SPEC configuration in the stock L4T update tools, but the computation of the compatibility spec is directly coded, rather than implemented in a separate script and stored in a configuration file.

With this change, we can reduce the size of BUP payloads by including fewer variants, and support bootloader updates for new revisions of Jetson modules when those revisions have no impact on boot firmware compatibility.

Verified with:

  • Jetson TX1
  • Jetson Nano
  • Jetson Nano-eMMC
  • Jetson TX2
  • Jetson TX2-NX
  • Jetson Xavier NX
  • Jetson Xavier NX-eMMC
  • Jetson AGX Xavier

* Compatibility logic derived from the nv-l4t-bootloader-config
  script in stock L4T

* BUP entries are compared to the exact TNSPEC first, then
  the compatibility spec in bup_enumerate_entries()

* Adds some cleanup in TNSPEC parsing handle machine names
  containing hyphens, and the actual maximum number of fields

Note that to actually use these changes, you need BUP payloads that have been created under the same compatibility rules. I'll be submitting the needed TEGRA_BUPGEN_SPECS changes in the meta-tegra PR where I include the upgrade to this version of the tool.
