mkimage: fit: Do not tail-pad fitImage with external data



There is no reason to tail-pad fitImage with external data to 4-bytes,
while fitImage without external data does not have any such padding and
is often unaligned. DT spec also does not mandate any such padding.

Moreover, the tail-pad fills the last few bytes with uninitialized data,
which could lead to a potential information leak.

$ echo -n xy > /tmp/data ; \
	./tools/mkimage -E -f auto -d /tmp/data /tmp/fitImage ; \
	hexdump -vC /tmp/fitImage | tail -n 3
