We want to enable kernel.spec to optionally ship UKI addons defined in a
common config file in redhat folder.
The folder redhat/addons will contain all addons configs specifying the
UKI kernel cmdline addons to be created in the next build. An addon
config is simply a .addon plain text file, where any line
is taken as kernel cmdline, except for the ones starting with '#',
which will be automatically ignored.

redhat/scripts/uki_addons.py will take care of parsing all configs and
folders in redhat/addons and call 'ukify' to create the actual addons.
The output addon filename will be a concatenation of all folders in
redhat/addons that are part of the addon config path.

For example, an addon config redhat/addons/1/2/3/test.addon will result
in generating redhat/addons_output/1-2-3-test.addon.efi.

It is also possible to add .sbat to all the generated addons, by
populating redhat/addons/sbat/sbat.conf. Syntax is same as the addons
config.

At build time, Makefile will create a tar.gz archive (addons.tar.gz)
containing all the files in redhat/addons. It will then passed to the
kernel specfile that will extract the addons from it and generate the
UKI kernel cmdline addons.

As an example of this feature, add the fips addon to optionally enable fips
(https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-23049).
