kern-tools: make fuzzy matching optional
It was reported that BSPs that only matched the machine were
being returned as the configuration entry point. This could lead
to warnings, or unexpected runtime results.
Integrating the following commit to ensure that only strict matches
are returned by default, with a flag to do fuzzy matching
spp: make fuzzy matching optional
Add a flag that can be used to toggle wether or not a partial
match is an error.
--fuzz
When passed, partial patching will be used. If not passed the
default is to return nothing (which can be interpreted as an
error by the calling routines) if both the kernel type and
machine do not match.
