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.

Most device ports that are added to pmaports (particularly the testing
category) are not actually "maintained". Many of them are never updated
after the initial contribution. There is little reason to list a
"Maintainer:" if the device package is actually not actively maintained
by that person.
Let's stop generating the Maintainer: line by default.
Instead, contributors should add the lines themselves if they are willing
to (actively) maintain the device package for a longer period of time.
Once they no longer want to maintain the package, the Maintainer:
line should be removed again.
Let apkbuild-lint check options again, and pass the pmbootstrap specific
options with the new CUSTOM_VALID_OPTIONS variable. Add a test case and
adjust pmb.helpers.lint.check to return the output of apkbuild-lint, so
we can properly test it.

Fixes: pmaports#553
The `mesa-dri-swrast` package was merged into `mesa-dri-gallium` in Alpine.
(See 298e20d04f)
The old alias might be removed in the future, so change the generated APKBUILDs
to depend on `mesa-dri-gallium` instead.
Many of the multi-line strings already contain a new line at the
end of the file. When using .split("\n") this will result in an empty
line at the end of the file that is again followed by a new line.
In other words: we have two new lines at the end, which looks weird.
.rstrip() the whitespace at the end of the string to avoid this.
In case a package can't be built using crossdirect, add an APKBUILD
option to unconditionally disable crossdirect and use the slower
distcc approach instead. This is needed e.g. when using LD_PRELOAD during
the build as crossdirect cannot work with that.
After an abuild update in Alpine envkernel.sh now throws an error
when activating envkernel:
ash: to: not found
Run 'pmbootstrap log' for details.
This happens because functions.sh fails with:
Unable to deduce build architecture. Install apk-tools, or set CBUILD.
For now it seems to be enough to set CBUILD appropriately to make it
work again.
Have explicit selection of the "native" cross compilation method with a
new "pmb:cross-native" option. Deprecate the implicit pkgname pattern
matching.

The ui-extras questions will attempt to find a postmarketos-ui-<ui>
package in pmaports. If the package does not exist as "root" APKBUILD
it currently attempts to parse all APKBUILDs in case it is somewhere
defined as a subpackage. This is really slow (up to 2-3 seconds),
which feels weird during "pmbootstrap init".
For the UI packages we specifically look for the root UI package,
not the subpackage, so let's skip searching for subpackages in this
case. This makes selecting the "none" UI nice and fast again.
Don't assume that the device selected in "pmbootstrap init" is in the
testing subdir anymore. The default device, qemu-amd64, was recently
moved to main, so this does not hold up anymore. Instead, use
pmb.helpers.pmaports.find to figure out the currect dir.
Fix the function, so it does not crash anymore when the
replace_subpkgnames argument is set and a dependency cannot be resolved.
Instead, print a useful warning that shows which pmaport caused the
error (that has always been a pain to figure out), and simply don't
replace the potential subpkgname with the real pkgname, just use the
dependency name as-is.
Resolve annoying crashes in bpo dependency resolving, like this one
(caused by a few linux-* pmaports for bad downstream kernels that depend
on python, not apparent at all from the message):
[09:08:15] Calculate packages that need to be built (all packages, aarch64)
[09:08:26] ERROR: Package 'python': Could not find aport, and could not find this package in any APKINDEX!

Previously these two commands would both print the current value:
pmbootstrap config extra_packages
pmbootstrap config extra_packages ''
With this change, the second command will instead set the given config
value to the empty string.
Prevent "pmbootstrap pull" from failing with:
NOTE: your pmaports folder has version 4, but version 6 is required.
ERROR: Run 'pmbootstrap pull' to update your pmaports.

Use pmb.helpers.args.add_cache() with the args used during
autocompletion, so pmb.helpers.pmaports._find_apkbuilds() does not fail
when trying to access args.cache.
No build is necessary if pmaport can't be built for given arch.
pmbootstrap must use Alpine's binary package in that case, even if the
pmaport version is higher than Alpine's binary package version.
Fixes: #1897
The --no-depends option is supposed to stop pmbootstrap if it was
instructed to build a package, but a dependency must be built first. So
far, this only covers the case if there is no binary package for a dependency.
Make it stop if the binary package exists, but is outdated, too.
Fixes: #1895
At the moment we set samsung-i9100 as default device.
This is probably only for historical reasons.
For someone/something using pmbootstrap without a specific device in mind
(e.g. CI) it's really better to use a generic device. QEMU runs natively
in a virtual machine so everyone can use it for testing.
