msm8996-common: Enable OEM unlock and bootable image signing
* Given the fact that the bootloader allows bootable images with arbitrary signatures to boot, one can relock the bootloader after installing a signed custom recovery. After that, custom ROMs can be installed from recovery as usual, as long as the boot.img's are signed. * This is NOT a security vulnerability because unlocked bootloader is still prerequisite to access fastboot boot/flash, in contrast it's a feature suggested by Google. * To make it feasible with Lineage, sign the img with AOSP verity key which is publicly available. * This doesn't mean using custom ROMs with locked bootloader is suggested.
