There is nothing in this commit except for the changes made by
nix-shell -p nixfmt-rfc-style --run "nixfmt ."
If this has mucked up your open branches then sorry about that. You
can probably nixfmt them to match before merging
this is so that we don't have to obfuscate store paths in
systemConfiguration to avoid dragging in build system
deps.
breaking-ish change to workflows, docs updated
config.boot.commandLineDtbNode can be set from `bootargs` to
`bootargs-override` (used for boards where the u-boot on the board does
set `bootargs` on its own).
In that case, the code updating the cmdline for tftpboot purposes also
needs to update this node, not the `bootargs` node.
Otherwise the kernel won't find the phram device, as it never heard
about it, as it didn't get the necessary cmdline options.
Zyxel "firmware" format is just… a FIT with some metadata on the models.
This FIT is like this:
--------------------------
uImage FIT header
--------------------------
Linux kernel
--------------------------
FDT DTB
--------------------------
Padding so that
this makes
8192kb [1]
--------------------------
UBI volume
as a root filesystem
--------------------------
We just reproduce this in a very brutal and naive way.
In the future, this seems worth to generalize and modularize this idea
so that zyxel-nwa-fit is just an instance of a more general output.

I believe there should be another module exposing `rootubifs` as `rootfs`
or let any other module just subsume that component like `zyxel-nwa-fit` output.

Some devices have a U-boot variant that does not accept a third
parameter on the "bootm" command, meaning we can't override the dtb
in the bootloader so have to smush it back into the kernel image
This doesn't work in QEMU but I think the problem is with the
U-Boot configuration for QEMU. It does work on at least one
hardware device so I'm pushing it anyway

Adding the reserved-memory node to the dtb can cause it to grow
by enough that it needs an extra page - this will overlap the start
of the kernel image if we calculate offsets based on the original size

new layout has rootfs followed by kernel and dtb, so that we
know the rootfs start and size to embed them into the dtb instead
of having to use dummy values and fill them in afterwards
