The GPL is not an EULA and so there is no value in having users
accept it.
The UI is very broken and so I believe it is best to drop this entirely.

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

On some installations, we are running out of space on the /boot
partition due to growing sizes of the ramdisk and the kernel.
To accomodate for that and have room to grow in the future, we increase
the size of the partition to 256 MiB.

ReiserFS is an old file system which has not been actively maintained in
the Linux kernel for a long time. It is potentially going to be removed
soon which is why we shouldn't encourage people to create new
installations with ReiserFS any more.
This patch removes support for ReiserFS from the installer.
We should keep it enabled in the kernel for as long as it is available,
but we will have to encourage users potentially to re-install on a
different file system.
Since ReiserFS isn't very popular any more, I don't think that there
will be many users left.

This patch removes support for i586 according to the decision being
taken over a year ago.
It removes the architecture from the build system and removes all
required hacks and other quirks that have been necessary before.
There is no need to ship any changed files to the remaining
architectures as the removed code branches have not been used.

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.

The installer was reading the kernel command line and was looking for
certain values which configured the installer.
GRUB appended a trailing newline character which was not accounted for
