Device support for the CPE510v2 so far has been a hack to enable

additional ethernet port).
With this patch, we provide proper support for this device in ar71xx.

This is a preparation for ath79 support of the CPE210/CPE510 v1.
Kernel size is chosen equal to the latest update for CPE610 v1.
This also updates the partition size in ar71xx target, so code
remains consistent if someone looks up the device. Since CPE210,
CPE510, WBS210 and WBS510 (all v1) share the same partition
layout definition, and are on deprecated target anyway, this
changes them all at once.

TFTP recovery to stock firmware:
Unfortunately, I can't find an easy way to recover the RE
without opening the device and using modified binaries. The
TFTP upload will only work if selected from u-boot, which
means you have to open the device and attach to the serial
console. The TFTP update procedure does *not* accept the
published vendor firmware binaries. However, it allows to
flash kernel + rootfs binaries, and this works if you have
a backup of the original contents of the flash. It's probably
possible to create special image out of the vendor binaries
and use that as recovery image.

With this patch is possible to set the maximum size of the payload.
For an 8Mb flash, the corresponding maxsize is:
8 * 1024 * 1024 - 5 * 64 * 1024 = 8388608 - 327680 = 8060928

Extended mksenaofw to support new "capwap" header structure.
This supports flashing from factory 3.0.0, 3.0.1, 3.1.0 and 3.5.5
firmware.
Note that the factory image format changes for 3.1 and later firmware,
and that the 3.1.0 and 3.5.5 Engenius firmware will refuse the
factory_30.bin file. Similarly, the 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 Engenius firmware
will refuse the factory_35.bin file.
Flashing from the Engenius 3.1.0 firmware with the factory_35.bin
firmware has not been tested, as 3.1.0 firmware (Engenius "middleFW")
is only intended as part of the upgrade path to 3.5.5 firmware.
Modified ipq40xx image Makefile to appropriately invoke mksenaofw
with new parameters to configure the capwap header.
Note that there is currently no method to return to factory firmware,
so this is a one-way street.
Path from factory 3.0.0 and 3.0.1 (EnGenius) software to OpenWrt is
to navigate to 192.168.1.1 on the stock firmware and navigate to the
firmware menu. Then copy the URL you have for that page, something like
http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/luci/;stok=12345abcdef/admin/system/flashops
and replace the trailing /admin/system/flashops with just /easyflashops
You should then be presented with a simple "Firmware Upgrade" page.
On that page, BE SURE TO CLEAR the "Keep Settings:" checkbox.
Choose the openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-factory_30.bin,
click "Upgrade" and on the following page select "Proceed".
Path from factory 3.5.5 (EnGenius) software to OpenWrt is simply to
use the stock firmware update menu. Choose the
openwrt-ipq40xx-engenius_ens620ext-squashfs-factory_35.bin and click
"Upload" and "Proceed".
The device should then flash the OpenWrt firmware and reboot. Note
that this resets the device to a default configuration with Wi-Fi
disabled, LAN1/PoE acting as a WAN port (running DHCP client) and LAN2
acting as a LAN port with a DHCP server on 192.168.1.x (AP is at
192.168.1.1)

Upload openwrt-ath79-generic-tplink_archer-a7-v5-squashfs-factory.bin
via the Webinterface.
Flash instruction using tftp recovery:
1. Connect the computer to one of the LAN ports of the Archer A7
2. Set the computer IP to 192.168.0.66
3. Start a tftp server with the OpenWrt factory image in the tftp
root directory renamed to ArcherC7v5_tp_recovery.bin
2. Connect power cable to Archer A7, press and hold the reset button
and turn the router on
3. Keep the reset button pressed for ~5 seconds
4. Wait ~150 seconds to complete flashing
Changes since first revision:
- Flash instructions using stock image webinterface
- Changed "Version 5" in model string to "v5"
- Split DTS file in qca9563_tplink_archer-x7-v5.dtsi
and qca9563_tplink_archer-a7-v5.dts
- Firmware image is now build with dynamic partitioning
- Default to ath10k-ct
Changes since second revision:
- Changed uboot@0 to uboot@20000 in DTS file
- Fixed ordering issue in board led script
- Specify firmware partition format in DTS file
- Rebased Makefile device definition on common
Device/tplink-safeloader-uimage definition
- Merged switch section in network script
(same configuration as tplink,tl-wdr3600
and tplink,tl-wdr4300)

Drop the factory images and the firmware tool to create them. They don't
work any more, since the factory image has an uImage header covering the
whole kernel + rootfs. This way the uImage splitter will not be able to
find the rootfs and the kernel will panic later on.
The factory images were most likely added at a time the board had
distinct partitions for kernel and rootfs.

Currently flash from WebIF is broken for Archer C7 v5 EU models as their
SupportList entries are missing.
The added entries originate from TP-Links latest Archer C7 v5 EU
firmware.

asm/byteorder.h & hence __cpu_to_be32() doesn't exist on Darwin
Shamelessly copy some byte swap functions from oseama.c

as indicated in commit c5bf408ed6 "(ramips: fix image generation for mt76x8")
more rework was needed to fix the other issues.
Building on another machine, but using the same arch, showed
the application failing again for different reasons.
Fix this by completely rewriting the application, fixing following found issues:
- buffer overflows, resulting in stack corruption
- flaws in memory requirement calculations (too small, too large)
- memory leaks
- missing bounds checking on string handling
- non-reproducable images, by using unitilized memory in checksum calculation
- missing error handling, resulting in succes on specific image errors
- endianness errors when building on BE machines
- various minor build warnings
- documentation did not match the code actions (header item locations)
- allowing input to be decimal, hex or octal now
