Add support for fetching binary artifacts to EdkRepo #285
Description
It would be great if EdkRepo supported fetching binary artifacts from Artifactory as an alternative to Git LFS. This would be useful for integrating binary ingredients such as microcode, GOP, OpROMs, etc. Because it makes sense to have strong versioning of artifacts, this should be made as a separate file from the manifest XML.
Instead, I propose adding an optional .edkrepo config file to the root of every Git repository. This file would use INI syntax, similar to .gitconfig files. It would provide a means of fetching artifacts by URL. Perhaps something like this:
[binary-artifacts]
path/to/local/myfile.bin=https://ubit-artifactory-or.intel.com/artifactory/client-bios-or-local/myfile.binThis feature would need to automatically add these files to the repo-specific .gitignore file... similar to has been done for #279.
