image_types: add IMAGE_ROOTFS_ALIGNMENT
Introduce a new variable called IMAGE_ROOTFS_ALIGNMENT that allows to control the aligment of the size of the rootfs. Its default value is set to 1KiB so that the existing behaviour is not changed. In case the SD card emulation of a QEMU system emulator gets used you may set the alignment to 2MiB. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
