The single pbl does not work with this patch. It only adds the size to
barebox.z, but that files is only generated and used for the multi pbl
case.
Generally we can go in this direction, but the single pbl case must
work, or alternatively, the multi pbl and single pbl case should be
unified.

I believe we must substract 4 from pg_len here as pg_len now includes
the additional size including bss value. pbl_barebox_uncompress() needs
the real size of the compressed binary. I don't know how tolerant the
different decompression algorithms are against additional garbage at the
end. I think this should be:
- pg_len = *(image_end);
+ pg_len = *(image_end) - sizeof(uint32_t);
+ barebox_mem_len = get_unaligned_le32((void *)(pg_start + pg_len));

This last change that changes the way the size is converted to binary is
not necessary, right?
