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.

upgrade kernel to recent stable release 6.10.11
1, scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh does not work for 6.10.11
2, vmlinux BTF binary name changed in 6.10.11
3, remove rtl8812au for now since it has compiling error
4, remove 5.15 nfqueue patch since it does not apply cleanly

when loxilb is enabled and started, enable the
firewall SNAT for green network so green network
could have initiate outgoing traffic like internet
access.
we can achieve this by restoring firewall SNAT setting
from default /var/ipfire/loxilb/FWconfig.txt when loxilb
start up with --config-path=/var/ipfire/loxilb thanks

LoxiLB 0.9.4 lack of SNAT feature for egress traffic
initiated from BPFire green network, when loxilb is
enabled, it breaks BPFire green network client Internet
access, this issue is fixed in the loxilb development
branch, temporarily I make loxilb development branch
as 0.9.5 in BPFire so I could test the SNAT feature and
it works.

When loxilb and keepalived are enabled, after BPFire
rebooted, loxilb and keepalived failed to start and
shows as "STOPPED" from UI, this is not expected since
we want to loxilb and keepalived to continue to be enabled
after reboot based on the enabled state of loxilb and
keepalived before reboot.
