scripts: gen_relocate_app.py: Script for relocating files in memory.

This script will relocate .text .data and .bss sections from
required files and places it in the required memory region. This
memory region and file are given to this python script in the form
of a string. Refer to the script for the format of this string and
the procedure to invoke it.

The main goal of this script is to provide a robust way to re-order
the memory contents without actually having to modify the code
(C source code and the linker code).
In simple terms this script will do the job of
__attribute__((section("name"))) for a bunch of files together.

# This script will relocate .text, .rodata, .data and .bss sections from required files
# and places it in the required memory region. This memory region and file
# are given to this python script in the form of a string.
# Example of such a string would be:
# SRAM2:/home/xyz/zephyr/samples/hello_world/src/main.c,\
# SRAM1:/home/xyz/zephyr/samples/hello_world/src/main2.c
# To invoke this script:
# python3 gen_relocate_app.py -i input_string -o generated_linker -c generated_code
# Configuration that needs to be sent to the python script.
# if the memory is like SRAM1/SRAM2/CCD/AON then place full object in
# the sections
# if the memory type is appended with _DATA / _TEXT/ _RODATA/ _BSS only the
# selected memory is placed in the required memory region. Others are
# ignored.
# NOTE: multiple regions can be appended together like SRAM2_DATA_BSS
# this will place data and bss inside SRAM2
