Subject: [PATCH v5 1/1] soc: qcom: mdt_loader: Enhance split binary detection

It may be that the offset of the first program header lies inside the mdt's
filesize, in this case the loader would incorrectly assume that the bins
were not split. The loading would then continue on to fail for split bins.
This change updates the logic used by the mdt loader to understand whether
the firmware images are split or not. It figures this out by checking if
each programs header's segment lies within the file or not.

V5: Removes extra empty lines from V4.

V4: Removes the unneceessary change in qcom_mdt_read_metadata(), the
exisiting check holds good in case the hash segment is in the loaded image.

V3 is separated out from [1] and includes
changes addressing comments from that patch set.

Please read Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst section about
Developer's Certificate of Origin 1.1, then apply that for each person
in the S-o-b chain from the top. Finally consider how Melody's name can
be the last one in this list, while the patch is coming from you.

That's nice, but what about the other changes I asked for?
