Let me connect with you offline, I'm currently building out the requirements for the SBL boot flow here and want to make sure we're aligned at that level (also there's a LOT of code here for me to review 😆 )

Adding ROM API support for MCXA 5xx family with Post-Quantum Cryptography hybrid secure boot (ML-DSA-87 and EC-DSA P384).
Added ec-slimloader-mcxa under libs and mcxa-577 examples (bootloader and blinky).
Validated on MCXA577 eval kit with hybrid signed AHAB MBI images which successfully authenticate and boot up.
Not yet added to PR: Imaging tools and secure boot provisioning library for MCXA.
BSD-3 license is acceptable (e.g. NXP-PAC), need to update deny.toml.
Clippy currently fails because SGI hashing PR waiting to be merged in embassy-mcxa
