Signed boot

Creating elliptic curve keys and embedding these to the bootloader (both new nuttx-based and the old one)
Enabling signature generation at build time
Explain how to customize signing process for production (replace cryptotools.py)
Explain the crypto_backend architecture and how to make a custom keystore / crypto components

These are relevant PRS: #17672 #17814 #18387 #18761 #19093 #19158 #19932 #20103 (note, may also cover encrypted logs, which are already docuemented).

This is copied from #2186 (comment)

FYI @jlaitine - just cleaning up old PRs to remove some of the info that is now noise. Hope you might be able to add docs for this at some point.
