Split firmware from classic hardware

[rusefillc]

At the moment https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi has amazing firmware and pretty legacy hardware.

Primary problem is stale HW next to active FW
Repo size is secondary much less important problem

Theoretically that could be sending a wrong signal.

it also contributes to cloned copy 2Gb size which could be a non-issue

Kind of related to rusefi/rusefi#3433

Split hardware and firmware repository into one specific for each?
If so, 100% agree with that idea

[rusefillc]

@OrchardPerformance at this point I am not sure how we would implement the split. there is a lot of GIT magic details

option 1: new https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi repo, bad option because history loss

• rename https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi to https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi-hardware
• copy master of https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi without hardware into
• delete firmware from https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi-hardware

option 2: move hardware content to new repo

• copy-paste https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi/hardware into new repo https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi-hardware
• delete hardware from master
• I guess having hardware history in https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi is not horrible?

[OrchardPerformance]

I like option 2, but I am an idiot.

I think the history showing there used to be hardware but now it has moved and there is newer hardware is fine.

a bunch of hardware (but not all) moved to https://github.com/rusefi/rusefi-hardware/tree/main/classic-designs
