Since I've already been involved in that one, I'll handle it.
It needs a bit of a refresh.

I'm not sure we need that one. We already have:
- host-dosfstools to generate (empty) fat filesystems in a image file;
- host-mtools to add files to a fat filesystem, and it works with
image files.
For example, I use it as thus:

So I suggest we just drop makebootfat, there's no need to duplicate our
host packages.
