Description

Our generated fake Hubris artifacts don't have the various extra files in them that help us detect whether they are an SP, ROT, or ROT bootloader image, so guessing these artifacts ultimately fails. (Both slots of the ROT bootloader fakes also have the same hash.) We should improve these fakes.

Research direction

Start by locating the code that generates fake Hubris artifacts and the logic that distinguishes SP, ROT, and ROT bootloader images. Compare the generated files and hashes for both ROT bootloader slots; done when the fakes contain distinguishing extra files and the two slots no longer share a hash.
