Image file loaded with
-device loader,file=...
are copied back to their destination device when the generic QEMU reset feature is invoked.As OpenTitan device use a specialized reset scheme, we may need to copy the so-called "ROM" images (as QEMU non-modifiable image, not related to OT ROM controller images) at will.
Add a public API to trigger this image-to-device copy since the default API is private.
