armsense v0.1.0

armsense v0.1.0 — first development snapshot

Highly experimental: this release may or may not work, has not been
audited and is not fit for production use. It is provided "as is", without
warranty of any kind; use it at your own risk.

This tag versions the build tooling, branding and documentation that
produce armsense, a firewall/router distribution for arm64 derived from the
pfSense® Community Edition code base (Apache License 2.0). It is a
development snapshot: suitable for trying out in a virtual machine, not for
production use.

What works

• Full build pipeline on a FreeBSD 16.0-CURRENT arm64 host: world and
  kernel, 221 packages via poudriere, core packages, UEFI installer ISO,
  bootable qcow2/raw disk image (build/).
• The disk image boots on QEMU/KVM (UEFI), configures WAN (first virtio NIC,
  DHCP) and LAN (second, 192.168.1.1), serves the web GUI and installs
  package updates from the armsense repositories.
• Product rebranded end to end: name, packages, logo and icons, console and
  loader, installer, wizard, themes; vendor services disabled.

Defaults

• Login admin / armsense, hostname armsense, serial console enabled.

Known limitations

• Package repositories are unsigned and point at a development server.
• PPPoE uses the mpd5 path; the upstream in-kernel driver is not available.
• Stand-ins replace the upstream repository client and unique-ID tool;
  Kea is the stock version.
• Raspberry Pi images are not produced yet.

Images are built on the FreeBSD build VM and attached to this release
separately (buildvm/publish-release.sh).

The first NIC is WAN, second onwards are LAN etc.
