Extract Android firmware images from an OTA payload.bin file.
With the introduction of the A/B system update, the OTA file format changed. This tool allows to extract and decompress the firmware images packed using the 'brillo' toolset.
Incremental firmware images are not supported (source_copy, source_bsdiff operations).
