The release notably includes fixes that allow us to start shipping color
correction matrices in tuning files. This commit includes the current
tuning iterations for the imx363 (used e.g. as Pixel 3a rear camera) and
the s5kjn1 (used on e.g. as FairPhone 5 front camera). The later is also
used for the other correspondig cameras on the mentioned devices, as
they improve the quality over the default. This is of course planed to
change in the future.
The GPU-ISP also received major performance improvements, in particular
if the dmabuf direct import path can be used. If that's not the case
some INFO logs are printed, giving hints what needs to be improved in
the V4L2 or GPU drivers.
Finally we can drop all previously backported patches, only keeping two
PinePhone (OG) specific ones around for now. These should probably be
dropped in future releases, giving the poor performance and limited GPU
capabilities (GLES 2.0 only) on that device.

Remove various upstreamed and move downstream tuning files into a
folder instead of wrapping them in patches.
Also sync up a bit to the alpine package by adding dependencies and the
python package.
Note: unfortunately this release does not contain the GPU-ISP. There
are various improvements to the SW-ISP, the simple pipeline handler and
other areas which should improve the experience on various devices with
pmOS, though.
