Feature request from @xalbertoisorna Add a way to specify an XN file which is not in the application directory. The motivation for this is to be able to have a single copy of an XN file which is used by multiple applications in a repository.

Possible implementation: The APP_HW_TARGET could take one of three forms:

  1. a name which refers to an XN file shipped with the XTC Tools
  2. a filename ending in .xn which can be searched for within the application source directory
  3. a path to the XN file: eg. ${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../../shared/foo.xn
