Subject: [PATCH 08/31] gpu: nova-core: move firmware image parsing code to firmware.rs
Up until now, only the GSP required parsing of its firmware headers.
However, upcoming support for Hopper/Blackwell+ adds another firmware
image (FMC), along with another format (ELF32).
Therefore, the current ELF64 section parsing support needs to be moved
up a level, so that both of the above can use it.
There are no functional changes. This is pure code movement.
