Hello,

extended firmware manifest is a method to retrieve capabilities
directly from the firmware file instead of routing the information via
the DSP and reading it back via IPC (latter mechanism still supported
but will be deprecated).

This feature was briefly merged to 5.8 with the series sent on
2020-Apr-15, but due to a regression hit with exporting uapi headers,
the patches got dropped.

Here's an update with the uapi header issue fixed, rebased to latest
'for-5.8' and a few minor fixes. This has been sitting in sof-dev for
some weeks and no further issues have been found. We also added
a check for the uapi-export case to SOF CI, so such errors would
not slip through again in the future.

Tooling support to create firmware files with an extended header
is available in SOF firmware repository (see the rimage tool) and
this part is already merged.
