Binary bootloader release on github #72

I would like to develop a sdcard installer image for NixOS for the Pioneer board and contribute it to https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware. I currently face problems packaging LinuxBoot for NixOS. I also have no Go experience which does not help. To get things started it would be convenient to just use binaries of the bootloader stages compiled on a different distribution, and then iteratively replace them by NixOS versions.

For acceptance into nixos-hardware it would be better to have vendor-provided binaries, i.e. you, instead of binaries from some random guy on the internet, i.e. me ;) So could you package compiled versions of the different bootloader stages and release it here on github? A compressed tarball containing the individual files is also better for packaging than a firmware image/bin.

Note: The artifacts from the CI runs unfortunately only have a limited retention time, so they are not suitable.
