 * \brief Abstract base class for generators of specific boot image formats.
 *
 * Subclasses implement a concrete generator for a certain boot image format, but
 * they all have the same interface.
 *
 * After creating an instance of a subclass the user adds OutputSection objects
 * to the generator. These objects describe discrete sections within the resulting
 * boot image file. If the format does not support multiple sections then only
 * the first will be used.
 *
 * Options that are common to all boot image formats are handled by methods
 * defined in this class. These are the current common options:
 *	- productVersion
 *	- componentVersion
 *	- driveTag
