Passing this option tells amdfwtool to create a text file, containing the versions of the blobs below:
- PSP bootloader (type 0x01),
- SMU firmware (type 0x08),
- AGESA bootloader 0 (type 0x30).

$ amdfwtool --fsp-version bla.txt $ more bla.txt […]
That would also show the format.
Patchset:
PS1: As I do not know, what the option is going to be used for, I think the KISS way would be to just output the versions to standard out. If somebody wants to store the output in a file, they can simply redirect the output with `>` or `| tee`.
No idea, how often this is going to be used, but why not add a switch for each blob: `--print-psp-bootloader-version`, `--print-smu-version`, and `--print-agesa-bootloader-version` (probably too long, but just a suggestion).
