On Mikrotik SPI NOR devices, the firmware partition must be erased when
flashing from stock firmware, otherwise leftover bits (in particular a
kernel signature) can trigger a boot loop.
When booted from initramfs (the only way to install OpenWRT on these
devices), this patch unconditionally erases the firmware partition in
the do_upgrade() stage for all supported SPI NOR devices.
This is forward-ported from ed49d0876 and 20452a8db

The commands to read ath9k caldata on mikrotik subtarget are
mostly repetitive, so let's put them into a function to make
writing and reading them easier.
This function will only be required when patching the MAC address.
For cases where it is put correctly into the calibration data by
the vendor, caldata_sysfsload_from_file can be used directly as
done for ath10k at the moment.

The MikroTik SXT Lite5 (product code RBSXT5nDr2, also SXT 5nD r2) is
an outdoor 5GHz CPE with a 16 dBi integrated antenna built around the
Atheros AR9344 SoC. It is based on the "sxt5n" board platform.
Specifications:
- SoC: Atheros AR9344
- RAM: 64 MB
- Storage: 128 MB NAND
- Wireless: Atheros AR9340 (SoC) 802.11a/n 2x2:2
- Ethernet: Atheros AR8229 switch (SoC), 1x 10/100 port,
8-32 Vdc PoE in
- 6 user-controllable LEDs:
· 1x power (blue)
· 1x wlan (green)
· 4x rssi (green)
- 1 GPIO-controlled buzzer
See https://mikrotik.com/product/RBSXT5nDr2 for more details.
Notes:
The device was already supported in the ar71xx target. There, the
Ethernet port was handled by GMAC1. Here in ath79 it is handled by
GMAC0, which allows to get link information (loss, speed, duplex) on
the eth0 interface.
Flashing:
TFTP boot initramfs image and then perform sysupgrade. Follow common
MikroTik procedure as in https://openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/common.

adds a common dtsi for this series and includes this to the final dts-files.

This drops the shebang from all target files for /lib and
/etc/uci-defaults folders, as these are sourced and the shebang
is useless.
While at it, fix the executable flag on a few of these files.
This does not touch ar71xx, as this target is just used for
backporting now and applying cosmetic changes would just complicate
things.

This commit takes advantages of base-files 220 which introduces routines
to perform caldata loading directly via the kernel sysfs loader helper.
This has the benefits of not wasting flash space to store caldata.
Memory footprint is reduced to the bare minimum: for devices that don't
need MAC patching, the caldata is loaded directly, for devices that do
need MAC patching, the caldata is extracted to /tmp, patched and then
loaded.

As evidenced here[1] the device MAC address can be stored at a random
offset in the hard_config partition. Rely on sysfs to update the MAC
address correctly.
To match sticker and vendor OS behavior, WAN MAC is set to the device
base MAC and LAN MAC is incremented from that.
Note: this will trigger a harmless kernel message during boot:
ag71xx 19000000.eth: invalid MAC address, using random address
There is no clean workaround to prevent this message from being emitted.

In RouterBOARD parlance there never was an "art" partition.
This partition has always been named 'hard_config' on ar71xx.
This partition contains more than just ART (Atheros Radio Test) data. It
includes the hardware description (product code, serial, board
identifier, name, hardware options, MAC address), as well as other bits
affecting the operation of RouterBoot.
To avoid confusion with regular ART data, this partition is renamed in
line with historical ar71xx and ramips nomenclature as 'hard_config'.

So far, specifying "BOARD_NAME := routerboard" is required by the
upgrade code of Mikrotik NAND devices, as "sysupgrade-routerboard"
is hardcoded in platform_do_upgrade_mikrotik_nand().
This patch replaces the latter with a grep for the name like it
is already done in nand_upgrade_tar() in /lib/upgrade/nand.sh.
By that, BOARD_NAME is obsolete now for this device.

This commit creates the ath79/mikrotik subtarget in order to support
MikroTik devices based on Qualcomm Atheros MIPS SoCs.
MikroTik devices need a couple of specific features: the split MiNOR
firmware MTD format, which is not used by other devices, and the 4k
sector erase size on SPI NOR storage, which can not be added to the
ath79/generic and ath79/nand subtargets now.
Additionally, the commit moves the two MikroTik devices already in
the generic and nand subtargets to this new one.
Tested on the RB922 board and the wAP AC router.
