Make it clear, that these kernels are not mainline, but "close to
mainline".

[ci:skip-build] [ci:skip-vercheck]: just changing pkgdesc

Enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_XTS for each kernel, so we can switch to using
aes-xts-plain64 as default cipher for cryptsetup (override with
"pmbootstrap --cipher"), instead of aes-cbc-plain64 (pmbootstrap#1940).

I have executed "pmbootstrap kconfig edit" on each kernel, and manually
toggled the option. The diff is not always clean, because for some
kernels it is apparently the first time, that menuconfig was executed on
the configs like that. In a few instances, it turned out that
CONFIG_ANDROID_PARANOID_NETWORK needed to be disabled too (this is
already a requirement, but as the config was incomplete, it was not
visible that this option was enabled). Very few times, I had to enable
CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL in order to see and enable CONFIG_CRYPTO_XTS.

It would be great if we could automate such mass kconfig edits in the
future, see pmbootstrap#1942.

[skip ci]: I have verified, that every single one of these kernels builds.
           CI will likely run out of time while downloading source tarballs.

Fixes: 10cbdc72 ("linux-samsung-i9100: modernize with new gcc8 linux aportgen code")

Remove it, to prevent the following error:
	rm: can't remove '.config': No such file or directory

This must have been necessary before, because the prepare script was
different, or abuild did something differently.

Make it possible to find the kernel config with "pmbootstrap kconfig
edit". While at it, also remove redundant -C "$builddir" arguments for
make (since prepare is running in $builddir already).

Add a $_commit prefix infront of each distfile, so bcmdhd.cal and
fw_bcmdhd.bin do not conflict with firmware-sony-sumire.

After moving the firmware packages used by devices in community to
device/community, move the rest of the firmware packages to device/testing.

For most firmware packages we use a vendor- prefix to make it clear
who has provided the firmware. The firmware-rtl8723bt package is only
used for Pine64 devices and actually contains configs that are specific
to Pine64 hardware (e.g. rtl8723bs_config-pine64.bin).

Let's rename it to firmware-pine64-rtl8723bt to make this more clear.
Also cleanup the APKBUILD a bit and provide the LICENSE file in a -doc
subpackage so we can legally redistribute that firmware.

Initial support for Samsung Nexus S, using vendor kernel.

This is the downstream u-boot port for the Galaxy S2.

The load script has been slightly altered to load the kernel from the
KERNEL partition at the 512 KiB offset, instead of loading it from the
RECOVERY partition, since PostmarketOS places the second initramfs in
the RECOVERY partition.

Newer Qualcomm SoCs (e.g. SDM845. MSM8953) seem to use a different
method to talk to the modem. There are no longer separate rpmsg/SMD
channels for QMI messags, instead the modem is also available through QRTR.

On these newer SoCs, installing msm-modem-mainline is pointless,
because the created /dev/modem device will not actually allow
communicating with the modem. However, you still need the part from
the base package (msm-modem), which installs+enables rmtfs.

To avoid confusion, rename the msm-modem-mainline subpackage to
msm-modem-rpmsg. Install only "msm-modem" on SDM845 because that
likely does not allow communication with the modem through RPMSG
anyway.

In the Linux kernel, the ST-Ericsson NovaThor U8500 SoC is barely
ever mentioned under the "NovaThor" name, more common are names like
U8500, Ux500, ST-Ericsson, STE, ...

Let's rename the kernel package to linux-postmarketos-stericsson
to make that more clear. Also cleanup the APKBUILD a bit while we're
at it, HOSTCC is unneeded, remove unnecessary depends, ...

Accessing the sound system causes freezes of the system, so it is
disabled for now.

bq-paella allows running unsigned firmware from other devices.
We can use that advantage to replace some of the original firmware
with newer versions from other devices. The DB410c has updated WCNSS
firmware that reportedly improves WiFi/BT coexistence (i.e. behavior
when both WiFi/BT are active at the same time).

Depend on the virtual "firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss" package to give
the user the choice which firmware version they would like to run.
The newer version from "firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss" is installed by
default (since it has a higher "provider_priority"), but the user
can choose to replace it by running "apk add firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss".

The WCNSS firmware configuration was moved to firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss-nv,
ensure to install it additionally.

Following discussions in
https://gitlab.com/postmarketOS/pmaports/-/issues/398, swclock has been
removed from postmarketos-base to avoid setting time incorrectly on
devices with a hardware clock. The various raspberry pi don't have
an hardware clock. This activate swclock back.
