Add DER-encoded ASN.1 as an image format. There is no fixed signature
for DER files. We treat an image as DER if it comprises a single
valid SEQUENCE object covering the entire length of the image.

[image] Detect image type when image is first registered
The current usage pattern of image_probe() is a legacy from the time
before commit 34b6ecb ("[image] Simplify image management") when
loading an image to its executable location in memory was a separate
action from actually executing the image.
Call image_probe() as soon as an image is registered. This allows
"imgstat" to display image type information for all images and allows
image-consuming code to assume that image->type is already set
correctly.
Ignore failures if image_probe() does not recognise the image, since
we do expect to handle unrecognised images (initrds, modules, etc).
Unrecognised images will be left with a NULL image->type, which
image-consuming code can easily check.
