util/spd_tools: output binaries instead of hexdumps
Instead of generating hexdumps, output binary SPD files since we plan to convert all hex SPD files to binary. Also adjust the file extension where needed. Test: compared generated binaries with converted binaries from hex files Change-Id: Ie99d108ca90758d09dbefad20fe6c9f7fc263ef1 Signed-off-by: Michael Niewöhner <foss@mniewoehner.de> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/44878 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@google.com> Reviewed-by: Angel Pons <th3fanbus@gmail.com>
