The changelog entries should be directly used for the release notes,
thus they need to be short and hold only information relevant to the
end user, and should be in the markdown bullet point format.
Stop relying on github redirects, they are a mixed blessing and using
them broke emerge-gitclone inside dev-container in silent way. The
script could not find a desired revision of portage-stable or
coreos-overlay, because it tried to pull from kinvolk instead of
flatcar-linux github org. The redirects seem to hinder fetching a
specific commit, so the script pulled something else (HEAD or main?).

- use `cp --reflink=auto`
- spelling error fixes

This change introduces a containerised SDK as a replacement for cork SDK
operations. It also simplifies versioning by removing the need for
manifest repos as well as usage of the "repo" tool by use of git
submodules for coreos-overlay and portage-stable.
The following feature scripts are added:
- run_sdk_container: Run a command in an SDK container, using the
current scripts repo + ebuild submodules.
current scripts repo + ebuild submodules.
- bootstrap_sdk_container / build_sdk_container_image: Bootstrap a new
SDK and create an SDK container from the resulting SDK tarball.
The following additions have been made to SDK scripts:
- setup_board: add --pkgdir parameter to use a custom binary packge
directory.

If we use date format of DD-MM-YYYY in changelog file names, the files
will not sorted by date. e.g. 01-12-2021 will come before 25-11-2021.
Use date format of YYYY-MM-DD to make the files sorted by date.
We override `PARALLEL_TESTS`, because kola run with PARALLEL_TESTS >= 4
causes the tests to provision >= 12 ARM servers at the same time. As the
da11 region does not have that many free ARM servers, the whole tests
will fail. With PARALLEL_TESTS=2 the total number of servers stays < 10.
In addition, we override `timeout` to 10 hours, because it takes more
than 8 hours to run all tests only with 2 tests in parallel.
Flatcar is in the NIST CPE dictionary. Let's programmatically build the
`CPE_NAME` in the build process in order to be scanned.
`CPE_NAME` is part of `/etc/os-release` with the following manual entry:
```
CPE_NAME=
A CPE name for the operating system, in URI binding syntax, following the Common Platform Enumeration Specification[2] as proposed by the NIST.
This field is optional. Example: "CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:fedoraproject:fedora:17""
...
[^2]: Common Platform Enumeration Specification
http://scap.nist.gov/specifications/cpe/
```
Which indicates that the current version of CPE is 2.3.

Equinix Metal ARM server are not yet hourly available in the default `sv15` region
so we override the `PACKET_REGION` to `Dallas` since it's available in this region.
We do not override `PACKET_REGION` for both board on top level because we need to keep proximity
for PXE booting.

Currently the os/sdk and os/toolchains job perform a chroot update whose
results are immediately discarded because the rest of the build uses a fresh
chroot and catalyst. Towards the end of a release period this can extend the
build time by about an hour (longer if rust is involved).
Introduce a `--setuponly` flag that bails after the chroot configuration, and
the skips chroot update.

and add script used for that purpose. This requires access to a github PAT
with 'repo.status' permissions.
