Description
The image-tools repository has a few different terms that are being applied to image layouts that seems unintuitive or confusing. To ensure that tools have operational parity, it seems like a solid idea to define the terminology for this common operations.
Specifically, we should define the high-level terms for "unpack", "create", "pack", "verify" (?).
This will make it clear what functionality the specification actually provides.
