1. Set deviceinfo_flash_offset_base to 0x00000000.
2. Enable deviceinfo_bootimg_qcdt, and make dt.img for it.
Directly use zImage instead of zImage-dtb for smaller boot.img size.
3. Reduce kernel size by disable xz, lzma and bz2 compressing.
4. Update kernel to the last version in LineageOS repository.
Please note that it is ONLY TESTED on XT1079 "thea", aka Moto G 2014 LTE.
However, "thea" and "titan" are nearly identical, sharing same kernel
and defconfig on LineageOS, etc.
[ci:skip-build]: already built successfully in CI
This reverts commit ee659a5bb4
and increases the pkgrels of all affected linux pmaports.
I have compiled *every single kernel* that was modified with this
commit, and it worked. That took 12 hours. So I'm pretty confident that
this is a good commit. Let's roll it out and go back to stability \o/
I'll kick off the binary repo building directly after pushing this, but
it will take some time until all binary packages are available again.
[skip ci]: it wouldn't finish in time.
All kernels compile again, after the GCC 8 upgrade.
All 3.x kernels have been changed to use GCC 6 now, because we can't
say for sure that they boot with GCC 8 even if we made them compile
with that newer GCC. If someone wants to test a kernel for a newer
device which they can test, see the instructions on
<https://postmarketos.org/vendorkernel>.
The linux-sony-castor-windy 4.x kernel did not compile out of the box
with the latest GCC, so we set it to GCC 6 as well. This can probably
be fixed easily.
linux-teclast-x80-pro: removed Werror and updated to latest 4.14 kernel
from kernel.org, otherwise this would not compile anymore (tested with
both GCC 6 and 8, probably incompatibility with the latest binutils or
something).
This commit will take too long to compile in CI, so let's [skip ci].
I've compiled all kernels multiple times and fixed them up until all of
them were working again.

* change "pmbootstrap kconfig_check" to "pmbootstrap kconfig check"
* change "pmbootstrap menuconfig" to "pmbootstrap kconfig edit [-x|-g]"
(with legacy alias, because the first syntax was referenced to a lot)
* enable X11 interfaces: -x: xconfig, -g: gconfig
* new function to copy the xauthority file:
pmb.chroot.other.copy_xauthority()
* remove menufconfig() function from the kernel template and all kernel
aports ([skip ci] because it would rebuild all kernels and run out of
time). Alpine has dropped this as well, and it wouldn't work with the
new code anyway.
Binary packages are rebuilding. If your kernel is not rebuilt yet, and
you don't want to build it yourself, just checkout the previous
pmbootstrap commit.
This commit also changes the arch from the postmarketOS kernels from
"all" to the ones where we actually have a kernel config.
Fixes#1229.
@drebrez deserves much credit for this one for all the testing,
bisecting and for fixing everything. Thank you very much!

* devices which need a custom weston.ini ship it with a install_if
subpackage, so it only gets installed when weston is installed. This
sounds complicated, but is actually pretty clean in the APKBUILD.
* postmarketos-ui-weston: has a weston.ini.default, which enables
xwayland and uses fbdev as backend (because that's what most
devices use!). It defaults to the weston.ini.default if there is no
weston.ini (as installed by the device package).
* changed spaces to tabs for consistency, general minor refactoring of
device-APKBUILDs
