* BootReason is now saved before security engine/warmboot firmware setup.

* The SYSCTR0 registers are now validated to contain expected values on bootup.
 +
* generate_srk() is now called before any other security engine key derivation is done.

* Code was added to implement new key gen inside initialize_se_derive_keys(), deriving the firmware's master kek and device key using keyslots initialized by the TSEC firmware.
 +
* Keyslots were shuffled around, the master key is now stored inside keyslot 0xD, and the device master key is now stored inside keyslot 0xC.
 +
* The usual code changes for adding a new master key/device master key are in place.
