This pulls in https://github.com/flatcar/init/pull/114 to
support a flag to skip providing OEM payloads, with the goal of easing
downgrades to non-sysext-OEM releases or, when backported to LTS with
the default behavior switched, to opt-in to OEM payloads for airgapped
updates that can't use the fallback download.
During the release of Alpha-3794.0.0 we further improved changelog
messages for the docker 24 upgrade and the torcx removal. This PR
updates the respective changelog entries in the repository.

The special Brightbox image uses the OpenStack userdata in Ignition but
lacked Afterburn usage. It actually works to use the OpenStack image and
directly which also enables Afterburn, thus we can drop the special
image.
Don't build a special image for Brightbox but recommend to use OpenStack
images directly. A symlink is added to help with the download of
hardcoded user scripts.
This change bumps the image ref of the mantle container to
ghcr.io/flatcar/mantle:git-20a2f8ffee8c8a1a042b1da99f0f59312110f285.
This version includes 2 PRs (https://github.com/flatcar/mantle/pull/465
and https://github.com/flatcar/mantle/pull/466) which add support for
sysext docker / torcx removal in the OS image.

In the past user had to customize Kubernetes or use a bind mount to make
writing the default /usr/libexec/kubernetes/ path work. With
systemd-sysext on by default the bind mount doesn't work anymore because
it can get lost. A newer workaround is to use a systemd-sysext image
that creates a symlink in /usr/libexec/... to redirect to somewhere
under /var/.
Instead of relying on workarounds, make Kubernetes work by default on
Flatcar by having the symlink be part of the generic image. The target
folder will be created through a tmpfiles rule.
The vendor tools on the OEM partition weren't updated. We now want to
ship them as systemd-sysext images which we can easily update. This
change extends the Flatcar A/B update mechanism to cover the OEM
systemd-sysext images. The same mechanism is also able to support
"official" Flatcar extensions, e.g., a ZFS extension.
When changed to oneshot, the subsequent services wiill actually wait for the nvidia.service to finish, i.e. wait for drivers to be installed. The subsequent services can be configured to wait for nvidia.service. This needs to be coupled with
RemainAfterExit=yes to ensure it doesn't get kicked-off automatically again.
