This is done as part of Stable Identity, which requires Caliptra to have a single SVN. As part of this work, FMC's SVN is being deprecated. Instead, the runtime SVN now describes the security state of the entire firmware image. This is safe because the FMC and runtime images are always signed, validated, and updated in tandem.

Future changes will update build tooling to prevent callers from setting FMC's SVN.
