* Minimum version: 2.7.2 (which fixes two CVEs)
* Check the minimum apk version before doing something with apk and
before entering the chroot manually (previously, it has just checked
the apk-tools-static version, which gets used to set up the chroot)
* Reword the message for an outdated APK version. Most likely it is
just the outdated http cache, instead of a man-in-the-middle attack.

* New commandline parameter --mirror-pmOS, where the binary repository
URL for postmarketOS can be specified (empty by default as of now,
this will be filled with the real URL once the repo works)
* Do not build packages, when they are in the binary repository and
the version of the package in the binary repository is up-to-date.
* Add a testcase for pmb.build.is_necessary().
* The supported architectures are inside the config now
* Symlinks get created for that list of supported architectures now.
* During initialization, the architecture from the selected device
gets checked against the list of supported architectures. When
it is not included, a meaningful exception gets raised.
* the aportgen and (cross-compiler) build tests make use of the
new variable now (they had armhf and aarch64 hardcoded previously).
* allows to build/extract/list initramfs, add/del hook
* rebuild the initfs whenever running install or trying to flash/boot it
* flasher flash/boot: automatically set up a minimal rootfs with kernel and initfs,
if it does not exist yet
* The check for valid sdcard paths has been removed (because it
doesn't make sense for /dev/sd*, this might as well be a real
harddrive)
* New check: abort if any partition of the sdcard is mounted
* Automatically detect if the partitions are called "p1", "p2" etc.
or just "1", "2" etc. (/dev/sda1 vs. /dev/mmcblk0p1)
* pmb.helpers.mount.ismount(): check the source (new) and the target
path in /proc/mounts
* automatically find the chroot binary on Debian, even if it is not
in the user's PATH
* don't use subprocess.run anymore (remove related testcase, that explicitly
checked for subprocess.run usage, and used recursive globbing, another
post 3.4 Python feature, for the checks. A similar case can be added in the
future, but right now it's more important to get Debian 3.4 working and all
PRs are reviewed anyway.)
* pytest fixtures: don't use the newer "yield" feature, as this is only
supported in a newer version of pytest, than provided on Debian Jessie
From manually testing, most stuff works in Debian Jessie. However, the
testsuite does not run through - creating an empty .tar.gz with Python
fails for some reason (this is done in test_apk_static.py).
