Description
Some options, like what tools to include, are not board dependent. It depends on the user, if they want to use GPG, have a TPM connected, or have a lot of tools or want a small/fast image. Options passed to Linux are also not board dependent. These options should be factored out into a user configuration file.

Research direction
No file or test is named. Start by tracing how board configurations currently define tool selection, TPM/GPG options, image sizing, and Linux arguments; identify the configuration entry points that can be separated. Done means board-independent options are supplied through a user configuration file without requiring board-specific changes.
