functions: Create symlinks for hostfw elements
Create symlinks for the hostfw elements to point to their corresponding
lid files. The hostfw image would not have the hostfw element files,
only lid files. The symlinks allow applications such as mboxd and
openpower-proc-control to read data for the appropriate system type
since the symlink would be pointing to the right lid file depending on
system type.
No need to hardcode the symlink for HBB, this is done automatically now
based on the JSON file.
Tested:
Verified all element files pointed to the right lid file, ex:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jul 26 16:08 DEVTREE ->
81e00673.lid
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Jul 26 16:08 HBB ->
81e0065a.lid
