This allows us to pass additional arguments to mkDerivation when calling mkStuartDrv.
This allows us to pass additional arguments to mkDerivation when calling mkJetsonUefi.
If the base Jetson UEFI rebuilds due to uniqueHash change, we also rebuild jetsonStandaloneMMOptee. This is unnecessary because the hash is not used anywhere. Break the not-needed dependency and consume jetsonStandaloneMMOptee directly.

Introduce a tool to patch a string in a UEFI Firmware Volume. The Python script recursively explores all firmware volume structures and does a find/replace on a given string argument. This tool will be used to patch the UEFI version string.
…patchfv When anything in the BUP changes (e.g. devicetree), it requires rebuilding all of uefi-firmware which takes several minutes in order to use the new BUP unique hash. To help increase the develop-test cycle, we can build EDK2 with a well-known version string and then do a find/replace to the unique version string using patchfv.
