Use case 2: Signing two images located in the internal flash and in the external flash

This use case shows how to sign both non-contiguous segments. The first one is located in the internal memory, and the second one in the external memory. The signing result may be a very large file because the data are converted to a binary format. Following JSON shows how to split the segments, sign each of them, and then combine back to a single file.
