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/.

- Update from 3.8.7 to 3.10.1
- Update of rootfile
- libvirt needs to be updated to 7.10.0 before this patch series is implemented
otherwise the old libvirt (6.5.0) will fail to build with the new python3.
- Changelog is w2ay to big to show here. Details can be found by viewing 3.9.rst and
3.10.rst in the Doc/whatsnew/ folder in the source tarball

Not sure why this has ever been there. This simply makes it
nicer to read and edit because we can have line-breaks now.

Python 3 was linked against an old version of OpenSSL on my
system and to avoid this, we need to ship it again being built
against the current version of it.

Most of these files still used old dates and/or domain names for contact
mail addresses. This is now replaced by an up-to-date copyright line.
Just some housekeeping... :-)
