I didn't find any obvious reference to this format in the UEFI spec.
This might be specific to the Quark UEFI EDK2 that Intel ships (it's not
in upstream edk2) and that was used as foundation for the IOT2000
series. The capsule driver that Intel includes in their Galileo BSP does
something similar (I don't have a browsable reference to that at hand,
sorry, must be in this nice package
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24702/Intel-Galileo-Board-GPL-Compliance-files-1-0-4?product=83137).
