According to Purism, PM on the Sparklan WiFi module works now with
recent kernels, the upstream bug referenced earlier (see diff) was
closed.
Note that this has no effect on the Redpine WiFi module, which is the
default module shipped with the L5.

Includes changes that might improve modem stability (with resetting,
that is...), and some ucm tweaks.

Installing wys and anything else on all gnome-related UIs is better than
just having a special case for phosh. Phosh should pull in
pmos-base-ui-gnome.
According to
https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux/-/issues/303#note_160864 enabling
the modem power management results in a unreliable modem, but more power
savings.
With power management on the modem can disconnect at any time,
including during calls. This makes the Librem 5 a very bad phone.
Instead let's ensure it works as a phone with a semi-reliable modem
(there is still the sleep/resume issue
https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux/-/issues/423) at the cost of
battery life.
As the Librem5's battery life is already poor, a little bit worse
isn't much different. Either way you need an external battery pack.

This wifi module doesn't ship with the L5, but I have one because it's
generally more stable than the redpine thing that does ship with the
L5... however there's a known problem with having PM enabled on it.
This adds a NM config option, that matches specifically on this
device/driver, to disable wifi. PM for the redpine should not be
affected by this config change.

This fixes gnss out of the box on the librem 5, by configuring geoclue
to use gnss-share as a nmea source.
I went this route, of overriding a .service file that invokes geoclue
with a command line option, because forking this .service file is much
nicer than forking geoclue.conf. The conf file will likely change over
time to add new app permissions or whatever, and it's unlikely
(hopefull!) that this .service file will change much upstream...

Apparently upstream names udev rules with the .udev extension... which
doesn't work with udev (I guess debian has a helper for installing rules
and it renames them?). This adds the expected ".rules" extension to them
so that udev actually uses them.
This update also includes improved ucm config from Purism.
"Lockdown suppport" is also added here, which allows toggling off all of
the hks on the L5 to disable all radios, etc without breaking some
sensors. For more info, see 65ec7038 in librem5-base.
Based on some new (to me...) info from Purism's Sebastian K, there are
apparently Evergreen devices that return different values for board rev,
so we shouldn't assume only r4 are Evergreen, and default to the r2 DT.
But many earlier devices (Birch, Chestnut, Dogwood) may or may not have
the board rev set either. Who knows! Defaulting to the Evergreen DT on
these devices is bad too, but there weren't many of those shipped (I
guess?), at least not compared to the number of Evergreens that aren't
properly identifiable in u-boot... so this using this DT by default is
the best of the two bad options we have.

- update to use librem5-base v52
- install usbguard config / new subpackage
- move xorg.conf to new x11 subpackage
- refactor udev rule install to just install everything available from
librem5-base upstream
- use purism's shipmode script, see:
https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux/-/merge_requests/333#note_195511
Using uInitrd is no longer necessary. I'm not sure *why*, but it just
works using the non-u-boot-image initramfs. The post-upgrade script was
changed to clean up the old images from /boot/u{Image,Initrd}, restoring
a lot of free space in that partition (~25MB)
This also sneaks in a small 1 character change to silence removing the
gpsd service from the default runlevel

gnss-share is a location provider I wrote for the librem 5's GPS module,
and can be used directly from geoclue. It allows saving and loading
A-GPS data (manual steps, for now) to facilitate faster fixes.
I'm not completely happy with having to use sed to patch geoclue's conf,
but:
1) I really only need to change 1 line
2) there's a non-zero chance geoclue's conf will be changed in aports if
new permissions are required for things later
So carrying the config in the device package and using
"replaces=geoclue" (like the postmarketos-* stuff) didn't seem like a
maintainable solution long term since the geoclue conf might gain needed
fixes/features that might make a copy in the device package outdated...
This installs some new udev rules added in purism's librem5-base
package, and adds the charger module to initfs to that PD is available
earlier on in the boot process.

[ci:skip-vercheck] needed for the postmarketos-ui-* packages in this
series
[ci:skip-build] already built ui-* packages in CI, and device pacakges
are just trivial deviceinfo change (manually built some just to verify)
Workaround for https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/linux-next/-/issues/303.
It seems worth sacrificing some power savings for a modem that won't
disappear, at least until the above issue is fixed.

uboot-tools is provided by u-boot-tools but sometimes apk still gets
confused. This change prevents errors such as
