<h2>Description<a class="headerlink" href="#description" title="Permalink to this headline"></a></h2>
<p>Adds an image header to the created binary file for the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">target-name</span></code> target. The image version is set to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">version</span></code>.
