Add a note with the reason for archiving and a suggestion to use the generic port (qcom-msm8953), remove maintainers. These individual ports was replaced (MR 5800) by the generic one (qcom-msm8953)

[ci:ignore-count] [ci:skip-vercheck]

Like quite a few other values being set to false, this one has a default
of false so can be safely removed.

This is the port for the Librem 5 devkit, I still have one but haven't
booted it in years and it's unlikely anyone else is using this (since
this port is super outdated and almost certainly not functional as-is).
Let's archive it so that it doesn't cause any confusion.

there is available qcom-msm8953 which is working with latest lk2nd fine on kuntao, but after flashing by building with device-lenovo-kuntao, it is resulting rebooting the system continuously with latest lk2nd, so imo it should be archived

device/*/*: enable deviceinfo_create_initfs_extra instead of depending on initramfs-minimal (MR 5636)

Make use of the new multi-stage initramfs rather than the minimal
variant, and inform mkinitfs that the initramfs-extra archive should be
created to save space.

... and install the firmware package using _pmb_recommends instead.

Applied to both downstream and mainline ports.

Resolves this harmless, but annoying error on mainline:

This cmdline argument is now a no-op. Drop it everywhere and add a new
CI check to enforce this.

Adjust the deprecated "minimal" initramfs variant to use
pmos.debug-shell to enable logging instead. It doesn't /support/
dropping to a shell, so the variable takes on a different meaning. But
that's ok since it's at least more consistent.

[ci:skip-build]: kernel builds are very likely to go through now

This device has a small boot partition (8 MB). The big initramfs
won't fit.

This device probably has a small boot partition where the big initramfs
won't fit, so use this. And also reformat depends.

Unmaintained is a name which on multiple occasions have seen lead to
confusion with people having the impression that unmaintained is for all
unmaintained devices, which is not how we're really using it. Many
devices in testing do not actually have a maintainer, yet there has been
no push to move these out of there and into unmaintained.

I think this is a result of that unmaintained was introduced not to keep
unmaintained ports but rather a place to store ports that have a better
replacement but where the inferior one still holds some sort of value,
such as for debugging purposes. These ports also are not necessarily
entirely unmaintained and see more fixes than many ports in testing.

While one approach to solving this problem could be to simply moving all
unmaintained ports to unmaintained, I think this comes with some
problems: It would require an initial effort to figure out which ports
are indeed unmaintained and which just don't have a maintained noted in
the package, and given how many ports there are in testing this would be
a big endeavour. It would also require continuous work on moving ports
into unmaintained as the maintainers go silent if we are to keep testing
and unmaintained's state consistent with reality. Additionally, just
because a port doesn't have a maintainer on paper doens't mean that
there aren't people who aren't willing to fix it up if there are issues
that arise.

As such, I think the way to go is renaming unmaintained to better
reflect the original intent. Thanks to Luca Weiss for suggesting
"archive", and to Arnav Singh for suggesting that "archived" would match
the other category names better.
