Description
I think it might have been better to use the JSON syntax aware mk_rom_config()-style approach for this, rather than textual patch files -- but we need to get moving so we'll use it as-is for now. Thanks!

Research direction
The issue proposes replacing textual patch files with a JSON syntax-aware, mk_rom_config()-style approach for defining manufacturing images. Start by locating the manufacturing image definitions and the existing mk_rom_config() implementation; done would require an agreed scope and validation that the image definitions work through the new approach.
