Add the missing serial linux command so the
flash image can be converted to qcow2, the
bpfire qcow2 image can be deployed in KVM
virtual environment through serial console
installation.
for exmaple:
virsh define BPFire-VM.xml
virsh start BPFire-VM
virsh console BPFire-VM
we will have serial console access to BPFire
VM and the installation will start.

Is XFS is being selected as file system, the minimum size requirement is
300 MiB. In order to keep it to a round number, this patch increases the
size of /boot to 512 MiB.
To keep all systems consistent, we will also do this on systems that are
being formatted using different file systems.
Fixes: #13077 - xfs cannot installed anymore because boot is to small

This removes support for building IPFire for 32 bit ARM architectures.
This has been decided in August 2022 with six months notice as there are
not very many users and hardware is generally not available any more.

This is now being dropped since the image won't fit onto a 2GB device
any more and since there is only one type of image, we don't need to
state the filesystem type.

Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

rockchip has a large bootloader so this also increase the gap between partitiontable

This patch uses the new Zstandard algorithm to compress the file system
image on the ISO image. This comes with these advantages:
* Compression is about twice as fast than XZ with the parameters we have
selected here
* We use a lot less memory during compression and can therefore utilise
all processor cores of the build machines
* Decompression (when installing IPFire and when creating the
flash-image) is substantically faster
The downside is that the generated ISO image is slighty larger (~10MiB)
which I am okay with as a trade-off for the points mentioned above.

we have no supported armv5tel board left so we can switch to the higher
arch. This now can use the vpu (still in softfp calling convention to
not break existing installations.)
this fix many compile problems, also boost is now working again.

This is necessary due to the increased size of the base OS which is
mostly driven by linux-firmware.

System capabilities are stored in extended file system attributes
which are by default not stored in tar balls.
This patch ensures that they are packaged and extracted.
