tools: Add a new script for firmware boot stress testing

This requires the kernel changes that expose the debugfs entries for
executing the different DSP ops and reading the current DSP firmware and
power states.

The script takes the firmware name and the path as inputs along with the
number of iterations of firmware boot. It takes care of putting the DSP
in the D3 state and unloading any existing firmware before starting
firmware boot.
