mesa-dri-swrast no longer exists and just installs,
mesa-dri-gallium. However, this might not always be the case, so
let's change it before it causes any issues.

I'd say this is not appropriate to be in postmarketOS because
this is just a bog standard x86 computer, it has UEFI BIOS and
everything, and you can just boot a Linux distro on a USB
stick.
It also has a 64-bit UEFI unlike some other tablet, so there
should be no issue installing a Linux distro with a fairly
modern kernel these days.
So, let's just drop it and forget this port even existed.
The charging script does nothing other than annoy a few people,
so get rid of it.
While at it, let's remove hybris reference from the APKBUILD as
hybrisOS is dead.

Powerful beast with Snapdragon 855 - 8 cores up to 2.8 GHz,
6 Gb RAM and fast UFS storage.
Mainline port is bare minimum (UART, framebuffer display, physical
keys, USB network). No storage support yet (UFS refuses to work)

Device uses mainline kernel. What works:
- boots
- pstore log
- simple framebuffer
- storage including sdcard
* payload mock device tree:
Payload mock device tree is needed to mock device tree,
when we're overriding linux with u-boot in android boot image.
Stock bootloader needs this dtb appended to gzipped u-boot.
Bootscript is a simple hush shell script, dedicated to boot OS.
It may be customized to implement dual boot or to change kernel
command line.
To make panel driver upstreamable to mainline linux, we need to use
proper panel selection in secondary bootloader (still TODO), and
therefore lk2nd will be strictly required to boot mainline port.
Switch flashing method to fastboot, enable sparse rootfs generation,
and depend on lk2nd package.
Depends on: postmarketOS/pmbootstrap!2174, to provide full
integration of lk2nd in pmbootstrap.
So, full flashing procedure for samsung-klte will look like:
$ pmbootstrap init
$ pmbootstrap install
$ pmbootstrap flasher --method=heimdall-bootimg flash_lk2nd
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_kernel --no-install
$ pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs
$ fastboot reboot
This removes u-boot from our image and allows booting via an
UEFI-compatible platform firmware instead. So to flash pmOS on the PPP
now we will require the user to flash Tow-Boot to the SPI. See the edge
post for more information.

Add option for mainline kernel iso downstream kernel. Note that a lot is
not working yet due to incomplete devicetree, so this is for development
purposes only.
Now that internal storage is supported, we actually need a 4096 sector
size, otherwise kpartx won't work on internal partitions.

Unfortunately, the oppo-a51f has been unmaintained for quite some time
now. The original author (harutora) has disappeared and no one else
seems to have this device. The device port has several open problems:
1. The device was never added properly to upstream lk2nd, because
of a special (OPPO-specific) boot image format. Users need to
compile and install some outdated version of lk2nd, which is no
longer (fully) compatible with newer kernel versions.
2. The authorship of the Linux changes are unclear: They were created
with a "no-reply" email address and without Signed-off-by line
that clarifies the licensing of the changes and permits upstreaming
the patches.
Since oppo-a51f is the last remaining device port in linux-postmarketos
-qcom-msm8916 with this problem, I decided to drop the patches from the
kernel, at least until harutora returns or can clarify the authorship
of the created patches.
