Fix this weird help output:
-mp URL, --mirror-pmOS URL
postmarketOS mirror, disable with: -mp='', specify
multiple with: -mp='one' -mp='two', default: h, t, t,
p, :, /, /, m, i, r, r, o, r, ., p, o, s, t, m, a, r,
k, e, t, o, s, ., o, r, g, /, p, o, s, t, m, a, r, k,

The option, --no-firewall, will disable nftables on boot in the image,
and print a warning message if it's being disabled in a device image
where the device's kernel should support running the firewall.

Adjust to mkbootimg-osm0sis 2021.04.27, where the output files have been
renamed:
"use correct output names matching mkbootimg args
(zImage=Image.gz=kernel, ramdisk.gz=ramdisk)"

This can be used for example to sideload packages to
pmbootstrap's QEMU which is running on the port 2222
by default, as follows:
pmbootstrap sideload --host localhost --port 2222 --user user <pkg>
This adds a `--port` parameter to sideload subcommand.
If not specified, port defaults to 22.
Fix issues occurring when using pmbootstrap qemu with proprietary
Nvidia drivers as well as mouse misalignment issues on Phosh UI.

Unmaintained devices are device packages that:
- Are known to be broken in some way without an active maintainer
who can investigate how to fix it, or
- Have not received any updates for a very long time, or
- Are discouraged from using because they are just intended for testing.
An example for this are ports using the downstream kernel for devices
which have a mainline port that is working quite well.
Unmaintained devices are still built by bpo (otherwise it would not make
sense to keep them), but they do not show up in "pmbootstrap init".
However, it is possible to manually select them by entering the name.
pmbootstrap will warn in that case.
Unmaintained packages should have a # Unmaintained: <reason> comment
in the APKBUILD, this comment is displayed in "pmbootstrap init"
so that the user knows why the device should not be used unless they
know what they are doing.
Made changes to limit the line length in following files,
- pmb/parse/bootimg.py
- pmb/parse/depends.py
- pmb/parse/kconfig.py
- test/test_parse_depends.py
Added the above files in E501 flake8 command list.
Substitute f-string for string concatenation.

The sideload command runs the supplied names through the pmbootstrap
buildsystem to make sure they're up-to-date, then uses scp from the host
to copy the built apks to /tmp on the phone and installs them through
ssh.
If the --install-key option is set then it will also copy over the apk
key that's used for signing the packages built by pmbootstrap in case
the postmarketOS install on the device isn't build by the same machine
as you're sideloading from.
Move the numerous "install" arguments into an own function (as it was
done with actions added later). Categorize the options and update the
help output, so the options are easier to understand.
This adds a new commandline flag -E / --extra-space for
specifying the amount of additional space to be added to
the image size to work around cases where the automatically
determined size turns out to not actually be enough.
The value is also asked for in the "Additional options"
section of the interactive mode.
Fixes: #1904
Alpine indicates with arch="", that a package should temporarily not be
built for any architecture. Support this in postmarketOS too by not
complaining in the APKBUILD parser if arch is empty.
Adjust pmb.build.autodetect.arch and pmb.build.menuconfig.get_arch, so
both don't fail with an IndexError when encountering a disabled package.

This adds support for specifying an arbitrary git ref (e.g. commits,
tags, branches) to upgrade to. This can be useful if a specific commit
needs to be packaged instead of the latest available. Alternatively you
can also specify a branch to be used if the default branch is 'stable'
but 'develop' should be packaged.
This also removes old code to use the 'bionic' branch for UBports Lomiri
(formerly Unity 8) packages.
Some Mediatek devices have a special 512-byte header around the zImage
which must be generated so the device boots.
Support for that exists for a while in postmarketOS but detection was
missing. Add that.
Let UI meta-packages specify apps in "pmb_recommends" to be explicitly
installed by default, and not implicitly as dependency of the UI
meta-package ("depends"). Therefore make these apps uninstallable,
without removing the meta-package.
Add pmbootstrap install --no-recommends to disable this feature.
Add initial support for the on-device installer in pmbootstrap. Let
pmbootstrap create a regular split image, then prepare a new installer
rootfs and copy the previously generated rootfs image into the installer
rootfs. Put the installer rootfs into a new image, with reserved space.
There is more to do from here, such as disabling the generation of the
user account when using --ondev. But this requires support in
postmarketos-ondev first, so let's build that iteratively.

Alpine APKBUILDs have the concept of "provider priorities" that affect
the choice of the provider to install when multiple packages provide
a virtual package.
One use case for this is to allow installation of different firmware
versions. bq-paella can run unsigned firmware, therefore you have the
choice between using the original firmware from the manufacturer, or
a slightly newer version from Qualcomm for the Dragonboard 410c.
We add provides="firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss" (the "virtual package")
to both firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss and firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss.
At this point, attempting to install "firmware-qcom-msm8916-wcnss"
would still fail with apk. (Because it does not know which provider
to install.)
To pick a default we can set e.g. provider_priority=100 for
firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss (the slightly newer version).
In that case, firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss should be installed by default.
However, the user can choose to do "apk add firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss"
to override the default choice in case of problems. In that case,
the conflicting firmware-qcom-db410c-wcnss will be automatically removed.
At the moment, pmbootstrap does not respect the "provider_priority" at all.
In the above case, it would always install "firmware-bq-picmt-wcnss"
during "pmbootstrap install" since that has the shortest name.
Extend the pmbootstrap code to pick a provider with the highest priority
(if any of the providers has a priority set).
Use mirrordir_pmos and mirrordir_alpine from channels.cfg to generate
the mirror URLs for postmarketOS and Alpine, which get written to
/etc/apk/repositories and which postmarketOS uses to download the
APKINDEX files.
Remove hardcoded "master" at the end of the postmarketOS mirror and use
mirrordir_pmos instead (which is "master" for the edge channel). Let the
postmarketOS mirror end in a '/' for consistency with the Alpine mirror
in pmb/config/__init__.py.
Remove obsolete --alpine-version. To experiment with a different Alpine
version, one should pass a custom --config-channels from now on.
Prepare to base postmarketOS on Alpine stable by parsing the new
channels.cfg file in pmaports.git, that describes which channel
needs which branches and mirror dirs from postmarketOS and Alpine.
Use the information in pmb.helpers.git.get_branches_official() first,
more is coming in follow-up commits.
Read the file from origin/master, so we get the latest fetched version
even if the last checked out master branch is not up-to-date (think of
currently checked out release branch instead of master, master will
never be updated to point to latest origin/master). Allow to override
the file with a new --config-channels parameter.
