Add support to push per branch container tools.
For anything not official stick to latest tag that correspond to test
run from master.
If we are testing something for one of the openwrt stable branch, parse
the branch name or the tag and push dedicated tools containers.
To use the stable container for local testing the branch needs to have
the prefix openwrt-[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9] (example openwrt-21.02-fixup)
Any branch that will match this pattern openwrt-[0-9][0-9].[0-9][0-9]
will refresh the tools container with the matching tag.
(example branch openwrt-22.03 -> tools:openwrt-22.03)
(example branch openwrt-22.03-test -> tools:openwrt-22.03)

This will build OpenWrt for MIPS malta BE and x86 64 Bit with all

This task probably needs 90 minutes to execute, but I hope that it
will find build problems in pull requests early.
This intentionally does not activate the feeds, because building them
too would take too long. We only build x86/64 and malta/be to save
resources.
I would like to detect build problems when a package is changed. We
often had build breaks when a package version was increased sometime
even in other packages which used it as a dependency.
This is based on the .github/workflows/packages.yml workflow.
To actually use ccache cache on kernel test from pr, the kernel workflow
has to be run first from a push action.
This will permit as a side effect to test merged commits and catch commit
that may cause regression in kernel compilation even outside the github

build: handle directory with whitespace in AUTOREMOVE clean
Package with whitespace in their build directory are not correctly
removed when CONFIG_AUTOREMOVE is enabled. This is caused by xargs that
use whitespace as delimiters. To handle this use \0 as the delimiter and
set find to use \0 as the delimiter.
While experimenting with the AUTOREMOVE option in search of a way to use
prebuilt host tools in different buildroot, it was discovered that the
md5 generated by find_md5 in depends.mk is not reproducible.
Currently the hash is generated by the path of the file in addition to
the file mod time. Out of confusion, probably, there was an idea that
such command was used on the package build_dir. Reality is that this
command is run on the package files. (Makefile, patches, src)
This is problematic because the package Makefile (for example) change at
each git clone and base the hash on the Makefile mtime doesn't really
reflect if the Makefile actually changes across a buildroot or not.
A better approach is to generate an hash of each file and then generate
an hash on the sort hash list. This way we remove the problem of git
clone setting a wrong mtime while keeping the integrity of checking if a
file changed for the package as any change will result in a different
hash.
Introduce a new kind of find_md5 function, find_md5_reproducible that
apply this new logic and limit it only with AUTOREMOVE option set to
prevent any kind of slowdown due to additional hash generation.

ath79: disable image building for Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 8XP
The downstream OpenWrt driver for the BCM53128 switch ceased to work,
rendering the 8 LAN ports of the device unusable. This commit disables
image building while the problem is being solved.
This patch is needed to handle interrupts by the second VPE on the Lantiq
ARX100, xRX200, xRX300 and xRX330 SoCs. Switching some ICU interrupts to
the second VPE results in a hang. Currently, the vsmp_init_secondary()
function is responsible for enabling these interrupts. It only enables
Malta-specific interrupts (SW0, SW1, HW4 and HW5).
The MIPS core has 8 interrupts defined. On Lantiq SoCs, hardware
interrupts are wired to an ICU instance. Each VPE has an independent
instance of the ICU. The mapping of the ICU interrupts is shown below:
SW0(IP0) - IPI call,
SW1(IP1) - IPI resched,
HW0(IP2) - ICU 0-31,
HW1(IP3) - ICU 32-63,
HW2(IP4) - ICU 64-95,
HW3(IP5) - ICU 96-127,
HW4(IP6) - ICU 128-159,
HW5(IP7) - timer.
This patch enables all interrupt lines on the second VPE.
This problem affects multithreaded SoCs with a custom interrupt controller.
SOCs with 1004Kc core and newer use the MIPS GIC. At this point, I am aware
that the Realtek RTL839x and RTL930x SoCs may need a similar fix. In the
future, this may be replaced with some generic solution.

commit, 6fba88de1913), and the "use lzma-loader" fix (commit 09faa73c53bd) didn't catch that to include the "loader-kernel" part.
I contributed an LZMA ERROR 1 fix (commit ce1957100411) for the SEAMA
device D-Link DIR-860L B1, where I had to duplicate the whole
uimage-lzma-loader recipe because of the special needs of the vendor
bootloader.
This new recipe reuse most of uimage-lzma-loader's KERNEL definiton to
avoid duplication.
It uses "relocate-kernel" as it needed for D-Link DIR-860L B1 to
boot from flash, and it's compatible with D-Link DIR-645 too.
It repacks lzma-loader with lzma for kernel (without uImage), because
these weird hacked vendor bootloaders accepts only LZMA compressed
kernels from flash:
We have SEAMA, Image Size = 4759794
Verifying Checksum ...
Uncompressing SEAMA linux.lzma ... OK
It uses uImage header for initramfs kernel to be little bit verbose.

ath79: fix MAC address assignment for TP-Link ar7241 devices
On TP-Link ar7241 devices LAN and WAN interfaces are swapped. Keeping
that in mind fix MAC address assignment as used in vendor firmware:
LAN MAC - main MAC stored in u-boot and printed on label
WAN MAC - LAN MAC + 1

Installation from Serial Console
------------
1. Connect to the serial console. Power up the device and interrupt
autoboot when prompted
2. Connect a TFTP server reachable at 192.168.1.0/24
(e.g. 192.168.1.66) to the ethernet port. Serve the OpenWrt
initramfs image as "openwrt.bin"
3. To test OpenWrt only, go to step 4 and never execute step 5;
To install, auto_recovery should be disabled first, and boot_part
should be set to 1 if its current value is not.
ath> setenv auto_recovery no
ath> setenv boot_part 1
ath> saveenv
5. Copy the OpenWrt sysupgrade image to the device using scp and
install it like a normal upgrade (with no need to keeping config
since no config from "previous OpenWRT installation" could be kept
at all)
# sysupgrade -n /path/to/openwrt/sysupgrade.bin
Note: Like many other routers produced by Linksys, it has a dual
firmware flash layout, but because I do not know how to handle
it, I decide to disable it for more usable space. (That is why
the "auto_recovery" above should be disabled before installing
OpenWRT.) If someone is interested in generating factory
firmware image capable to flash from stock firmware, as well as
restoring the dual firmware layout, commented-out layout for the
original secondary partitions left in the device tree may be a
useful hint.
Installation from Web Interface
------------
1. Login to the router via its web interface (default password: admin)
2. Find the firmware update interface under "Connectivity/Basic"
3. Choose the OpenWrt factory image and click "Start"
4. If the router still boots into the stock firmware, it means that
the OpenWrt factory image has been installed to the secondary
partitions and failed to boot (since OpenWrt on EA4500 v3 does not
support dual boot yet), and the router switched back to the stock
firmware on the primary partitions. You have to install a stock
firmware (e.g. 3.1.6.172023, downloadable from
https://www.linksys.com/support-article?articleNum=148385 ) first
(to the secondary partitions) , and after that, install OpenWrt
factory image (to the primary partitions). After successful
installation of OpenWrt, auto_recovery will be automatically
disabled and router will only boot from the primary partitions.

ath79: add support to TrendNet TEW-673GRU
Add support for the TrendNet TEW-673GRU to ath79.
This device was supported in 19.07.9 but was deprecated with ar71xx.
This is mostly a copy of D-Link DIR-825 B1.
Updates have been completed to enable factory.bin and sysupgrade.bin both.
Code improvements to DTS file and makefile.
