------------
1. Download the OpenWrt initramfs image. Copy the image to a TFTP server
2. Connect the TFTP server to the EAX17. Conect to the serial console,
interrupt the autoboot process by pressing '0' when prompted.
3. Download & Boot the OpenWrt initramfs image.
$ tftpboot openwrt.bin
$ bootm
4. Wait for OpenWrt to boot. Transfer the sysupgrade image to the device
using scp and install using sysupgrade.
$ sysupgrade -n <path-to-sysupgrade.bin>

When building in environments that set IS_TTY, the feeds script does not
honor it and passes a hardcoded value to scan.mk, causing unwanted
control characters to appear in stdout.
This commit addresses the issue by checking IS_TTY and MAKE_TERMOUT
variables and uses their values if defined.

Certain existing tooling, such as 'package-metadata.pl', are written
to accept the output of 'opkg list' with package manifest delimited
by '-'. The 'make-index-json.py --manifest' output was emulating
the 'apk list --manifest' format without the delimiting dash,
thus breaking these legacy tools.
We fix this by adding the dash to the manifest output, which allows
all existing tooling to process the output irrespective of whether
the build system uses opkg or apk.

It's expected the mkits.sh script to generate only the relevant DTS
entry and have all the blob already prepared to use for mkimage.
This is not the case for the RootFS case where the script generates a
.pagesync with the dd command.
To better handle this, drop the dd command and instead error out if the
.pagesync blob is not found if RootFS is used.
Adapt the generic fit build in image-commands.mk to call the dd for
.pagesync right before mkits.sh.

Some feeds might need to set the source for their packages in a
different directory than the cloned one.
For example a feed "test" might be an entire repository and the relevant
packages that wants to be included are in the directory "foo".
In such scenario the source info in the package will result in something
like "feeds/test/foo/network/dnsmasq" instead of an expected entry like
"feeds/test/network/dnsmasq".
To give a more real-world example, this problem is currently present
with OpenWrt SDK where the SDK clone the entire OpenWrt core repository
as "base" feeds but the package are present in the "package" directory.
This cause every package to have the source entry set to
"feeds/base/package/..." conflicting with what a non-SDK build do with
setting the source entry to "feeds/base/..."
To solve this, actually enable support for "flags" in the feeds script
and implement a new option "--root" to set the root directory for the
defined feed to an inner directory.
The "flags" in the feed script are no more than argument option that can
be defined right after the "src-" type in the feed.conf file.
This feature was partially implemented but never actually used for
anything keeping it dormant with all the core piece there (the pattern
regex always accounted for these extra option but they were never passed
to the relevant functions)
An example of the "--root" flag is the following:
src-git --root=package base https://git.openwrt.org/openwrt/openwrt.git;main
With "--root" defined, the script will append "_root" to the feed name
clone directory and will create a symbolic link named with the feed name
and pointing to the feed name clone directory + the value in root.
From the previous example:
feed name: base -> clone directory: base_root
symbolic link: base -> base_root/package
The script internally reference the "_root" directory for every update
operation and OpenWrt build system transparently use the feed name
directory to reference feed packages producing consistent source info
entry.

Flashing instructions:
======================
Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:
ap51-flash
----------
The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.
initramfs from TFTP
-------------------
The serial console (115200 8N1) must be used to access the u-boot shell
during bootup. It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image
from a TFTP server (here with the IP 192.168.1.21):
setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
tftpboot 0x83001000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr
The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via
scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

Since we are not using patch -b, *.orig files are only created when
there are conflicts, or never according to posix patch.
As such, it doesn't really make sense to always delete *.orig files
presuming they are patch backups, even if they are patch backups.
Doing so is both deleting potentially useful information for failed
patch applications and creating hard to diagnose bugs [1].
In a similar vein, checking for *.rej files does not add any value
since we're already checking the patch command's return code.

Parsing "git log" is fragile. The actual output depends on both global and
local configuration files. Enabling "log.showSignature" makes "git log" prefix
signed commits with multiple lines of gpg verify output, regardless of the
configured log format.
Add "--no-show-signature" to "git log" commands to work around this particular
issue.

When downloading a snapshot archive from gitweb,
the filename is not part of the URL,
and adding the filename to the URL causes errors.
The gitweb API exclusively uses query parameters
instead of paths in order to execute snapshot downloads.
Add a condition to the Perl download script
that removes the filename if the relevant
query parameter matches in the URL.
Also, to reduce server load of the original sources
try the Openwrt CDN servers first for these downloads.
Even though snapshot downloads are not ideal
due to the impact on the source's server health,
they are better for download performance than using git only.
Therefore, attempting it last will reduce the impact
and thus encourage maintainers to keep the option enabled.
This change is partly inspired by a conversation linked below
about snapshot downloads and server performance issues
which led to the feature being disabled for a particular server.

There is some confusion in the Git log of this file. Specifically,
the commit message on 7b7f1702 incorrectly indicates that there was
"potential fear" about copyright infringement.
Upon review of this situation, there is, in my opinion, no concern of
copyright infringement here. This is not legal advice; it is my
opinion based of years of work on copyright policy for FOSS.
However, Elliott Mitchell's idea was obviously helpful as inspiration
in writing this script and deserves credit. Ideas alone, however,
are not to my knowledge copyrightable anywhere in the world.

Not all targets have CONFIG_PINCTRL=y set in their kernel config.
Let's introduce a feature for that so kernel module packages which

try to prevent leaking CONFIG_PINCTRL=y also into targets which do
