- move `fakeroot_dpkg_deb_build()` from runners.sh to new utils-dpkgdeb.sh
- and make it debug show the size of the source
- clean off `.git` directory earlier for full build
- @TODO: get rid of the "hardlinks" funky biz in there and not-copy `.git` to begin with
- introduce generic `prepare_tmpfs_for()`, which manages it's own cleanup/dir removal
- use it for `WORKDIR` (which is `TMPDIR`) and `LOGDIR`
- adapt previous cleanup handlers for those, so they delete their contents but not the dir itself (which might be mounted)
- also: make `ARMBIAN_LOG_CLI_ID` readonly together with other superglobals
- set `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` & `XDG_RUNTIME_DIR` together with `TMPDIR`
- kernel-make.sh: pass `CCACHE_TEMPDIR` down to Kernel make (thanks @the-Going)
- consolidate at `prepare_python_and_pip()`
- sanity check for Python version 3.9+ regardless of HOSTRELEASE
- TODO: pip vs sudo/root: need pip 22.2+ to curb warning, not doing it
- .config is now compared with previous one byte-wise, diff shown, and mtime preserved directly via `cp -p`
- this does away with the previous mtime-based BS I had written during the fasthash era (and thus remove file-mtime.sh, regen lib)
- split some functions, to better control the interactive piece in the _middle_ of kernel config process
- no more `kernel_config_maybe_interactive()`, now `kernel_config()` that controls its own logging sections
- extract `kernel_determine_toolchain()` out of config into make
- introduce internal hook `armbian_kernel_config()` that runs before custom version (for .config defaults, coming soon)
- remove a lot of hopefully / hardly confirmed, unused dependencies
- don't use crossbuild-essential-xxx; avoid the c++ compiler that comes with it, install gcc-only instead
- hostdeps: use `libc6-dev make dpkg-dev gcc` (without `g++`) instead of `build-essential`
- drop `btrfs-progs` and `f2fs-tools` (@TODO add in extension when/whereused)
- more: drop `cryptsetup` (@TODO add in extension when/whereused)
- don't be too quiet when doing apt-update for hostdeps
- completely remove support for building under `buster` -- that's way too old, sorry.
- de-hardcode `python3` invocations, instead use `python3_binary_path` set by `prepare_python3_binary_for_python_tools()`
- juggle `$HOSTRELEASE`: read from actual host, or determined from Docker image name (during Dockerfile build)
- TL;DR: include and use `python3.9` for focal-like host OS's
- Python patching: tune some logging all-around
- Python patching: *FINALLY* set the dates on the patched files to `max(patch_date, root_makefile_date)` thus making lighting-fast rebuilds again
- new EXTRAWIFI patch generator harness; Python patching EXTRA_PATCH_FILES_FIRST
- Python patching: use temp file for patching rejects; clean it up
- new EXTRAWIFI patch generator harness; Python: mark drivers as autogen, don't split or parse them, read as bytes, apply bytes directly
- new EXTRAWIFI patch generator harness; somewhat-works, but patches are per-family
- Python patching: add the `cache/patch` as a mountpoint
- Darwin Docker performance is 20x with namedvolume; the cached patches are very large
- Python patching: hopefully better Markdown: split series dir; detect more status/problems; arche only for missing Subject
- Python patching: archeology only for missing Subject:, not description; clarify CLI pushing
- Python patching: use `{file_base_name}.patch` for archeology as `file_name` might include a dir
- Python patching: fix: don't skip board/target patches for no reason
- Python patching: fix for series.conf patches (sunxi/sunxi64): don't sort; mark as series and show on summary
- Python patching: don't fail if archeology found no commits (but add warning)
- Python patching: CLI command `kernel-patches-to-git` with archeology summary, and git pushing of results & summary
- Python patching: patches-to-git small fixes, auto-push if it's rpardini

- Python patching: `git add` everything all at once, for speed
- armbian-next: fixes to ORAS-related logging
- armbian-next: actually enable ORAS-based kernel git bare tree seeding/bundles; enable cleaning of bundle articfacts after confirmed working
- armbian-next: introduce ORAS-based kernel git bare tree seeding/bundles (although it is a .tar, not a bundle); this is 20x faster than cloning
- armbian-next: introduce `ORAS` tooling; pull and push functions & downloader/launcher
- WiP: Python patching delusion, pt 1: finding & parsing patches; apply & git commit with pygit2; Markdown summaries (also for aggregation); git-to-patches tool

- Python patching: initial apply patches & initial commit patches to git (using pygit2)
- Python patching: add basic `series.conf` support
- Python patching: force use of utf-8; better error handling; use realpath of dirs

- Python patching: use modern-er email.utils.parsedate_to_datetime to parse commit date
- Python patching: unify PatchInPatchFile; better git-commiting; re-exporting patches from Git (directly)
- Python patching: switch to GitPython
- GitPython is like 100x slower than pygit2, but actually allows for date & committer
- also allows to remove untracked files before starting
- Python aggregation: fix missing `AGGREGATED_APT_SOURCES_DICT`
- Python patching: add `unidecode` dependency to pip3 install
- Python patching: don't try archeology if SRC is not a Git Repo (eg, in Docker)

- Python patching: don't bomb for no reason when there are no patches to apply
- Python patching: fully (?) switch kernel patching to Python

- Python patching: include the problem breakdown in Markdown summary
- Python patching: sanity check against half-bare, half-mbox patches
- Python patching: try to recover from 1) bad utf-8 encoded patches; 2) bad unidiff patches; add a few sanity checks
- Python patching: try, and fail, to apply badly utf-8 encoded patches directly as bytes [reverted]
- Python patching: try to recover from patch *parse* failures; show summary; better logging
- set `GIT_ARCHEOLOGY=yes` to do archeology, default not
- armbian-next: Python `pip` dependencies handling, similar to `hostdeps`
- same scheme for Dockerfile caching
- @TODO: still using global/shared environment; should move to a dir under `cache` or some kinda venv
- WiP: add `python3-pip` to hostdeps; remove `python-setuptools`
- remove `python-setuptools` (Python2, no longer exists in Sid) from hostdeps
- add `python3-pip` to hostdeps; part of virtualenv saga

- `advanced_patch()`: rename vars for clarity; no real changes
- Python patching: introduce FAST_ARCHEOLOGY; still trying for Markdown links
- share a single `.git` for all u-boots
- all fetches are done against it, maximizing cache hit ratio drastically
- also reduces the size of each working copy by more than 70%
- split uboot's git stuff into uboot-git.sh
- split `uboot_prepare_git()` from `compile_uboot()`
- now we've a single `.git` for all kernels with all branches; a "master" cache

- move cleaning of old sources/kernel to mountpoints code
- sharing most UEFI code, will replace the `virtual` one soon
- x86: patch uboot defconfig to use the `q35` machine type, not `i440fx`
- separate x86 bootscript, due to non-uInitrd-ness of it
- hack ramdisk load address both in u-boot source and bootscript
- use 32-bit u-boot, not 64-bit
- grub: introduce `UEFI_GRUB=skip`, does not deploy GRUB (but does the kernel packages, etc)
- auto-enable qcow2 output for these
- works with both distro's and Armbian's kernels
- introduce `SHOW_CCACHE=yes` for detailed ccache statistics and logging
- fix: kernel build is done under "env -i", so pass CCACHE_DIR down to Make if CCACHE_DIR is set...
- split from kernel.sh, show stats also for u-boot targets; show compile time
- add volume definition (under `${SRC}/cache/ccache`); auto-use that in Docker builds via `CCACHE_DIR`
- better logging for `do_with_ccache_statistics()`
- there's some CCACHE_DIR code from before; unify @TODO
