      main/msm-firmware-loader: add a package to load firmware on msm devices (MR 2431) · bc50dd02
      Nikita Travkin authored and Alexey Minnekhanov's avatar Alexey Minnekhanov committed
      Many devices need proprietary firmware blobs. So far those blobs were
      packaged and installed from the repository but this approach has many
      drawbacks:
      
      - The rootfs can only be used on a single device model.
       - If a model has multiple variants that have diferent secire-boot key,
         each must have it's own firmware blobs.
      
      This makes maintaining packaged firmware very hard and outweights the
      benefits of having a repeatable installation in most cases.
      
      Instead we can load blobs dynamically from preexisting firmware
      partitions that usually have same structure and contain the blobs we are
      interested in.
      
      The proposed scripts place symlinks to the blobs in a special dir that
      then given to the kernel. Blobs from firmware/postmarketos (or another
      dir that was set as extra path prior the script execution) will take
      priority which allows to override some blobs (e.g. for deviecs with no
      secure-boot)
