This is needed for devices such as Xiaomi Mi 5 (gemini), having backlight embedded in the panel controller

Fixes an issue where /dev/video2 can't be used by Megapixels (and thus
Megapixels crashing) when having PipeWire installed. The problem was
that the node could only be used by a single application, which was
PipeWire in that case.

Adjust post-upgrade script to not remove vmlinuz-*. This causes problems
with devices using kernels from Alpine, where the kernel is not
installed to /boot/vmlinuz, as it is now the case in postmarketOS, but
e.g. in /boot/vmlinuz-rpi. The intention was to clean up files when
migrating from the old postmarketos-mkinitfs to the new one (>= 1.0.0).
However, the /boot/vmlinuz* files are managed by apk, so they should
already get removed.
Add -v, so it prints a message when removing a file from /boot.
kernel filename must now be /boot/vmlinuz
[ci:skip-build]: ollie is pretty sure that this will work. it's a
critical fix, so let's not delay it by waiting for two kernels to build.
Kernel file names will be generic (/boot/vmlinuz).
Release path still has the 'flavor' in it so that pmbootstrap can still
get a reference to which kernel package is installed
This replaces the mkinitfs script with a re-write (in Go). The
re-written mkinitfs will atomically replace the initfs in /boot, check
for free space before doing so, and try to do whatever it can to not
leave the system in an unbootable state by botching the initfs
creation/installation.
pmb:cross-native with go cross compiling doesn't work exactly, it makes
the correct binary, but on Alpine go uses -buildmode=pie which creates a
dynamic thing, and the interpreter is wrong (e.g. it it set to use the
host arch's interpreter, like /lib/ld-musl-x86_64 even though
GOARCH=arm64)
The init.sh script is no longer a template, "initramfs-extra" is used.

This tool is used by the new mkinitfs to finalize/install boot files.
It's based on the old mkinitfs_functions.sh, but includes some
improvements like verifying free space in target directory, and trying
to atomically mv files.
This fix was pending since before charging-sdl was deprecated and still
provides value should anyone wish to pickup and improve charging-sdl
again.
charging-sdl currently does not check for devices using mesa, even
though it supports it in the same way as osk-sdl. Check for msa support
and set SDL_VIDEODRIVER in that case.
Also fix the font path, as it was reading both keyboard-font and
keyboard-font-size from osk.conf.
Installing "onboard" onscreen keyboard and enabling autostart.
Option "Don't auto-show while external keyboards are connected" is
activated.

Disable the hostname management feature of NetworkManager. This isn't
useful for the postmarketOS use case, where we set one hostname in
/etc/hostname via pmbootstrap and want it to be used. (It makes more
sense for normal PCs, which may just have the hostname 'localhost' at
the end of the installation and then not be unique in the network.)
NetworkManager is supposed to only change the hostname if it is set to
localhost, however this detection does not work properly in
postmarketOS. I've skimmed through sources of elogind, NetworkManager
and OpenRC a bit and found that in OpenRC the definitive location to put
the hostname is /etc/hostname. The other path, /etc/conf.d/hostname, is
just a fallback. Experiments show that setting something in
/etc/conf.d/hostname does prevent NM from setting a hostname offered by
the DHCP server, but it's not clear to my why this happens. I suspect
elogind + dbus. Disabling this feature we don't need anyway seems like a
good approach to me without wasting too much time here.
