From: John Harrison <John.C.Harrison@Intel.com>

The validation of the firmware table was being done inside the code
for scanning the table for the next available firmware blob. Which is
unnecessary. So pull it out into a separate function that is only
called once per blob type at init time.

Also, drop the CONFIG_SELFTEST requirement and make errors terminal.
It was mentioned that potential issues with backports would not be
caught by regular pre-merge CI as that only occurs on tip not stable
branches. Making the validation unconditional and failing driver load
on detecting of a problem ensures that such backports will also be
validated correctly.

This requires adding a firmware global flag to indicate an issue with
any of the per firmware tables. This is done rather than adding a new
state enum as a new enum value would be a much more invasive change -
lots of places would need updating to support the new error state.

Note also that this change means that a table error will cause the
driver to wedge even on platforms that don't require firmware files.
This is intentional as per the above backport concern - someone doing
backports is not guaranteed to test on every platform that they may
potential affect. So forcing a failure on all platforms ensures that
the problem will be noticed and corrected immediately.

v2: Change to unconditionally fail module load on a validation error
(review feedback/discussion with Daniele).
v3: Add a new flag to track table validation errors (review
feedback/discussion with Daniele).
