khadas-vim1 / khadas-vim2: bump prebuilt u-boot blob to khadas-uboot 0.17.3

[igorpecovnik]

Summary

Updates the prebuilt SD u-boot blobs for Khadas VIM1 and Khadas VIM2 from the khadas-uboot 0.11 release to 0.17.3 (u-boot 2021.07+, dated 2025-09-19).

Changes

• khadas-vim2: u-boot-vim2-sd.bin → 0.17.3 (VIM2.u-boot.sd.bin, md5 b52581b80040a56778e0cc0389308b58)
• khadas-vim1: u-boot-vim1-sd.bin → 0.17.3 (VIM1.u-boot.sd.bin, md5 34cf7192baebc532ac9a2aead76461e4)
• Both blobs verified against the release list.md5sum. On-disk layout is unchanged (1363968 bytes), so UBOOT_TARGET_MAP is untouched apart from the provenance comment (0.11 → 0.17.3).

Depends on

#9995 (artifact-uboot: hash local blob content) — without it the artifact version doesn't change when a blob is bumped in place, so the build would reuse the cached .deb and the new blobs wouldn't be packaged. Merge #9995 first.

Testing

Both boards tested successfully booting from SD card and eMMC.

Poem

🐰 A comment once read "zero point eleven,"
Now "zero point seventeen point three" — closer to heaven!
The VIM boards still boot with their prebuilt U-Boot grace,
Just a version string hopped to its proper place.
This bunny approves with a wiggle and a hop! 🌟
