Stop announcing services using DNS-SD we don't offer.
Drop AVAHI and use systemd-resolved to announce hostname via mDNS
and LLMNR. Also continue to offer the _workstation._tcp.local service
since it is used by the CoreDNS mDNS plug-in.
* Update buildroot-patches for 2020.11-rc1 buildroot

* Update buildroot to 2020.11-rc1

* Don't rely on sfdisk --list-free output

The --list-free (-F) argument does not allow machine readable mode. And
it seems that the output format changes over time (different spacing,
using size postfixes instead of raw blocks).

Use sfdisk json output and calculate free partition space ourselfs. This
works for 2.35 and 2.36 and is more robust since we rely on output which
is meant for scripts to parse.

* Migrate defconfigs for Buildroot 2020.11-rc1

In particular, rename BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_BOOT_SCRIPT(_SOURCE) to
BR2_PACKAGE_HOST_UBOOT_TOOLS_BOOT_SCRIPT(_SOURCE).

* Rebase/remove systemd patches for systemd 246

* Drop apparmor/libapparmor from buildroot-external

* hassos-persists: use /run as directory for lockfiles

The U-Boot tools use /var/lock by default which is not created any more
by systemd by default (it is under tmpfiles legacy.conf, which we no
longer install).

* Disable systemd-update-done.service

The service is not suited for pure read-only systems. In particular the
service needs to be able to write a file in /etc and /var. Remove the
service. Note: This is a static service and cannot be removed using
systemd-preset.

* Disable apparmor.service for now

The service loads all default profiles. Some might actually cause
problems. E.g. the profile for ping seems not to match our setup for
/etc/resolv.conf:
[85503.634653] audit: type=1400 audit(1605286002.684:236): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="ping" name="/run/resolv.conf" pid=27585 comm="ping" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=0 ouid=0

* Change titels to reflect official/new naming

* Use GitHub Actions to trigger Release Drafter

The Add-On is no longer developed and GitHub Actions is the recommended
way to use the Release Drafter
Make the NXP PCF8563TS on-board RTC the primary RTC of the system.
* Use /run as default location for lock files for U-Boot tools

While there is a command line parameter to set the lock file explicitly,
there are other tools invoking fw_setenv (in particular rauc) which do
not set the lock file. Using /run by default makes fw_setenv use the
correct lock file in all situations.

* Don't explicitly set lock file location

Since we patch U-Boot tools to use /run by default setting it explicitly
is unnecessary.
Make sure the builder can write the ccache directory. This is useful
e.g. when using a Docker volume or a newly created directory.
* Use double quote to prevent globbing and exit with error in case
  directory doesn't exit in hassos-hook.sh

* echo flags are undefined in POSIX, use bash instead in
  bluetooth-rtl8723
* Add resolved.conf to disable stub resolver and DNSSEC

There are Add-Ons which try to bind port 53 on all interfaces including
127.0.0.53. Disable the stub resolver to make them continue working. We
don't need the resolver currently anyway.

Also disable DNSSEC to make sure the baords can access a NTP time server
even when their time is incorrect (since DNSSEC validation may fail).
This is a known chicken-egg problem with systemd-resolved/systemd-timesyncd
and might be addressed in a future version, with what we can reenable
DNSSEC:
systemd/systemd#5873

* Make sure resolve gets added only once to nsswitch.conf

Only add resolve to nsswitch.conf if not already present.
* Initial version of release workflow using GitHub Actions

Add release workflow using GitHub Actions to replace the current Azure
DevOps pipeline. Currently the same functionality is implemented. This
uses multiple builds in parallel to make better use of CPU resources.

Remove Azure DevOps pipeline.

* Add GitHub Actions workflow for pull-request checks

Lint Dockerfile and shell scripts when PRs are opened.

* Use multiple runners in parallel

Buildroot has stretches where CPU resources are not fully utilized.
Spawn multiple builds accross builders to increase load. Also sort them
by architecture to maximize ccache hit rate.

* Checkout before validate version
* Remove busybox Linux module support

Since systemd relies on the upstream Linux kernel module handling
utility "kmod" the busybox implementations are not required. Already
today the official "kmod" utility takes precedence:
haos # ls -la /usr/sbin/*mod*
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/depmod -> ../bin/kmod
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/insmod -> ../bin/kmod
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/lsmod -> ../bin/kmod
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/modinfo -> ../bin/kmod
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/modprobe -> ../bin/kmod
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            11 Nov 11 11:32 /usr/sbin/rmmod -> ../bin/kmod

* Move modprobe configuration alsa-base.conf to correct location

The official modprobe package from kmod checks three locations:
/etc/modprobe.d/, /lib/modprobe.d/ and /run/modprobe.d/. Since usr-move
/lib is a symlink to /usr/lib, the correct location for distribution
provided modprobe files is /usr/lib/modprobe.d.
The current default size of 6GB can fill up pretty quickly. Since most
disk images we offer resize dynamically its not really problem to ship
with a bigger default size. It avoids support cases when people forget
to increase the disk image size.
* Fix N2+ boot by disabling USB enumeration

On some devices USB enumeration in U-Boot seems to freeze:
starting USB...
Bus usb@ff500000: Register 3000140 NbrPorts 3
Starting the controller
USB XHCI 1.10
scanning bus usb@ff500000 for devices... <freeze>

We don't use USB currenty in the U-Boot script, disable it for now.

* Disable USB enumeration on all ODROID devices
* Avoid trying to boot non-existing kernel image in fail-over case

The A/B update system automatically switches to the other boot slot when
booting fails. However, in a fresh installation, only boot slot A
exists. If booting fails three times (e.g. if somebody plugs out power
before the slot can be marked as good), then the system switches to boot
slot B which does not contain a kernel image yet. Avoid trying to boot
the non-existing kernel image.

With this change, if slot B is empty U-Boot will restore both slots to 3
attempts and retry booting from slot A on next reboot:

```
Trying to boot slot B, 2 attempts remaining. Loading kernel ...
** Unrecognized filesystem type **
No valid slot found, resetting tries to 3
storing env...
```

* Add development build version part to version number

Add third part in the version number to indicate development builds.
Generate a default version number based on the date, e.g.
"5.6.dev20201124".

* Add GitHub Action workflow for development builds

Add another GitHub workflow for development builds. Make it triggered
only for now. The version number is generated by the workflow and
passed to all builds to make sure all builds have the same development
build version.

* Add documentation
The xz compression allows higher compression rates and higher speeds,
a quick measurement lead to this numbers:
gzip --best: compression 131.11s, decompression 9.797s (299M)
xz -3 (single thread): compression 95.13s, decompression 14.902s (228M)
xz -3 (multi thread): compression 12.146s, decompression 14.902s (228M)
* Add 2020-10-28 beta EEPROM

This improves boot from USB and speeds up boot times.
also includes sd card v1 boot reliability.
see raspberrypi/rpi-eeprom#246

Also add HDMI_DELAY=0 so HDMI display is always visible
for easier debugging.
HAOS builds add a lot of files and things get quickly messy. Use a
directory per build.

Also don't abort the complete build if a single board failed, we still
might be interested in the rest.
* Bump dev channel after build

Bump version on dev channel automatically when building a dev branch
pre-release.

Backport patches for RPi400 and CM4 support. Tested on a RPi400 which
seems to successfully boot and run Home Assistant OS with this.
The change "Avoid trying to boot non-existing kernel image in failover
case" introduced a broken boot script on Raspberry Pi (when booting from
partition B) and ODROID-XU4.
* Add sound card by default using the hdaudio driver (#925)

* Use virtio-net for VirtualBox

The virtio-net driver is a paravirtualization driver which means less
overhead than virtualizing a full network card. The driver is supported
by VirtualBox since several releases by now.

* Use full OS name in product name.
The version banner was showing "Amlogic Meson G12A (Unknown) Revision
28:0 (0:0)" in all cases instead of the correct SoC name and revision.
Make sure the SoC revision is properly read also for the banner.
* Update buildroot to 2020.11-rc3

* ODROID: Update kernel 5.9.11

* Remove patch which has been applied upstream

* Linux: Update kernel 5.4.80
