testing/device-samsung-j4lte: New device

Successfully built and booted postmarketOS on Samsung Galaxy J4. It's based on Exynos 7570, same SoC used by samsung-xcover4lte [1].

Currently, these are tested working:

  • Boots from internal storage
  • Display (console framebuffer is NOT working, kernel panics)
  • Framebuffer (additionally with msm-fb-refresher to refresh the screen)
  • Touchscreen
  • USB Networking (RNDIS)
  • Wi-Fi

Tested UI environments:

  • XFCE 4
  • Console (Kernel log doesn't show up because CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE is not enabled, but enabling it panics the kernel. This is a known issue for some Samsung devices, notably samsung-crownlte [2].)
