Using mender-convert, no errors but not seeing the sdimg. is img.gz file the same thing?

Hello @mirzak, i also was kinda surprised by this, are you stepping away from the .sdimg concept at all? to be honest, it was kinda difficult to explain to people who are not familiar with mender about the .sdimg’s ---

We have moved away from the `sdimg` name in `mender-convert` and have adopted the more commonly used `.img` suffix in this context. We still use `sdimg` in the context of the Yocto Project. Note that there is no technical change on the image here and is simply a rename.
