My first version of the zynq fpga manager had byte swapping in there
and detection of which format was used. Greg even (accidentially)
merged my initial code
which I then cleaned up in 4d10eaff5bfc69997a769f9c83b749f0a8c542fa
("fpga: zynq-fpga: Change fw format to handle bin instead of bit.") to
address the review
comments.

I do see your point about useability, and if this is something that
keeps coming up
we could pull that into the framework with a flag to SWAP or as part
of the image_information
struct.

Thoughts?

Cheers,

Moritz
