Decryption utility for Yaesu ham radio firmware images.

Background

Yaesu provides a firmware update utility for their ham radios that contains an encrypted firmware image. This utility reimplements the decryption algorithm found in the update utility and emits a decrypted image.

A more in-depth blog post about how the encryption works can be found on my blog.
