[Su Hang]

These series of patchs implement Intel Hexadecimal File loader and
add QTest testcase to verify the correctness of Loader.

v1: Basic version.
v2: Replace `do{}while(cond);` block with `for(;;)` block.
v3: Add two new files information in MAINTAINERS.
v4: Correct the 'test.hex' path in hexloader-test.c.
v5: Split huge parse_hex_blob() function into four small function;
    Add check for memory bounds;
    Check validation for Record type;
    Replace function ctoh() with glib function g_ascii_xdigit_value();
    Remove check for '.hex' suffix;
    Remove unnecessary type cast;
    Remove duplicate zero-initialization;
    Correct typos;
v6: Call Intel HEX loader after load_uimage_as();
    Remove use of KERNEL_LOAD_ADDR;
    Change (hwaddr) type argument to (hwaddr *) type;
    Use new struct HexParser to contain all arguments needed by
        handle_record_type();
    Enable discontiguous data records (again);
    Remove unnecessary memory clean: bin_buf and HexLine line;
    Correct typo;
    Remove unnecessary check for hex file size;
    Add entry point handle for START_SEG_ADDR_RECORD and
        START_LINEAR_ADDR_RECORD record type;
    Use hwaddr * type to store entry point;
