I don't have a strong feeling at this point, but it looks like the
Discoverable Partition Specification is getting quite well standardized
(https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/discoverable_partitions_specification/)
and adopted. And genimage indeed supports those now, so we should
probably move in this direction.
That being said, having as a first step our defconfigs comply with our
existing policy would already be good.
