Add support for a simple tagged database in the PS3 flash rom
os-area. The database allows the flash rom os-area to be shared
between a bootloader and installed operating systems. The
application ps3-flash-util or the library libps3-utils from the
ps3-utils package can be used for userspace database operations.
The latest ps3-utils package is available here:
