Many architectures have similar install.sh scripts.
The first half is really generic; it verifies that the kernel image
and System.map exist, then executes ~/bin/${INSTALLKERNEL} or
/sbin/${INSTALLKERNEL} if available.
The second half is kind of arch-specific; it copies the kernel image
and System.map to the destination, but the code is slightly different.
Factor out the generic part into scripts/install.sh.

This patch extends Linux RISC-V build system to build and install:
Image - Flat uncompressed kernel image
Image.gz - Flat and GZip compressed kernel image
Quiet a few bootloaders (such as Uboot, UEFI, etc) are capable of
booting flat and compressed kernel images. In case of Uboot, booting
Image or Image.gz is achieved using bootm command.
The flat and uncompressed kernel image (i.e. Image) is very useful
in pre-silicon developent and testing because we can create back-door
HEX files for RAM on FPGAs from Image.
