Support using u-boot with Image format for raspberrypi3-64
For raspberrypi3-64 we need to use the Image or Image.gz format with u-boot instead of the legacy uImage format. We also need to issue the 'booti' command to boot the kernel instead of 'bootm'. Signed-off-by: Paul Barker <pbarker@toganlabs.com>
