Could you make the signing inside the barebox build system optional
for HAB? Then we could have a prompt symbol that depends on HABv4, e.g.
CONFIG_HAB_SIGN_IMAGES or something and disabling that would require
external signing like for AHAB. I think this would improve user experience
a fair bit, because HAB and AHAB could be handled the same build-system
side and it would be easily discoverable in Kconfig that one supports
sigining internally and the other doesn't.

This would also allow us to build-test this configuration.

Thanks,
Ahmad
