CI: tools: reogranize and split workflow
Generilize tools workflow for future usage in shared workflow for tools
build.

Split tools workflow to tools and push-containers:
- tools just execute build test
- push-containers build and push prebuilt containers

tools: Improve diffability/maintainability
There's no purpose to squish multiple tools into a single line (and
spread those out over multiple lines). It might look 'nice' in certain
conditions, but it's annoying to maintain.

For example, but not limited to:
* adding/removing tools, causes hard to read diffs
* Duplicates are harder to spot
* Sorting can not be (easily?) automated

With this proposed change, the above annoyances go away. Inserting a new
tool can be done with a single line-change-diff, sorting can be done by
any editor (in vi, select, :sort for example) and dupes are much easier
to spot.

bf06a7c865 uboot-sunxi: use UUID of bootdev and bootpart
Several sunxi devices come with multiple mmc devices. On such devices,
the mmc device order is unpredictable, so using /dev/mmcblk0p2 as root
device doesn't always work, which results in unbootable devices.

For the Banana Pi BPI-R3 in the mediatek target, this has been solved by
defining aliases for the mmc devices in the DTS. Ideally we would do the
same here, but for sunxi-a64 we already use UUID probing, so let's start
with that (5f2ff607e2 ("uboot-sunxi: a64: allow booting directly from
eMMC")).

Since we're building and including u-boot in each supported device
image, and this method has been proven to work fine for a64, let's just
change the default u-boot env file to do the same.

Commit a01d23e75 ("image: always rebuild kernel loaders")
is a step in the right direction, but exposed some issues
and regressions in the makefile.

Some of the files made by device specific COMPILE targets
start with an "append" command (i.e. >> instead of > redirection)
and if the file already exists, the target file is the
input to itself before the first recipe-specified input.

mac80211: add ath11k PCI support
ath11k is the upstream driver for Qualcomm 802.11ax radios, both for the
internal AHB and PCI based cards.
This commit does however only provide PCI support while AHB will follow
but its SoC specific so it will require an OpenWrt target first.

It differs a bit from ath10k as it requires stuff like QRTR, MHI and QMI
helpers.

PCI variant requires qrtr-mhi and mhi-bus which backports do provide,
however we are dropping those in a patch as they will conflict with
support for the AHB variant as that one requires qrtr-smd which in turn
requires RPMSG and GLINK and its not feasable to provide those in
backports as they are really SoC specific.

QRTR and MHI in kernel 5.10 are not usable and backporting the changes
is not easy as they have changed drastically from 5.10 to 5.15 ath11k will
only be available on targets that use kernel 5.15.

kernel: package QRTR support
QRTR is Qualcomm IPC router protocol and ath11k requires it for both
AHB and PCI support, so package it as a kernel module so it can be
added as a dependency to the ath11k module.

Only kernel 5.15 is currently supported due to various things missing in
5.10 whose backporting is out of scope for this patch.

SMD, TUN and MHI variants are packaged.

SMD variant depends on the ipq807x
target as it has dependency on the RPMSG drivers which are Qualcomm
and SoC specific anyway.

a442974cfa gdb: Do not link against xxhash
libxxhash is now available in the OpenWrt package feed and gdb will link
against it if gdb finds this library. Explicitly deactivate the usage
of xxhash.

This should fix the build of gdb in build bots.

d9566d059c ath79: add support for KuWFi C910
KuWFi C910 is an 802.11n (300N) indoor router with LTE support.

I can't find anywhere the OEM firmware. So if you want to restore the
original firmware you must do a dump before the OpenWrt flash.

According to the U-Boot, the board name is Iyunlink MINI_V2.

Hardware
--------
SoC:   Qualcomm QCA9533 650/400/200/25/25 MHz (CPU/RAM/AHB/SPI/REF)
RAM:   128 MB DDR2 16-bit CL3-4-4-10 (Nanya NT5TU64M16HG-AC)
FLASH: 16 MB Winbond W25Q128
ETH:
  - 2x 100M LAN (QCA9533 internal AR8229 switch, eth0)
  - 1x 100M WAN (QCA9533 internal PHY, eth1)
WIFI:
  - 2.4GHz: 1x QCA9533 2T2R (b/g/n)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the power barrel side)
LTE:
  - Quectel EC200T-EU (or -CN or -AU depending on markets)
  - 2 external non detachable antennas (near the sim slot side)
BTN:
  - 1x Reset button
LEDS:
  - 5x White leds (Power, Wifi, Wan, Lan1, Lan2)
  - 1x RGB led (Internet)
UART: 115200-8-N-1 (Starting from lan ports in order: GND, RX, TX, VCC)

Everything works correctly.

MAC Addresses
-------------
LAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48 (art@0x1002)
WAN XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:49 (art@0x1002 + 1)
WIFI XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

LABEL XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:48

Installation
------------
Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 4 seconds.
You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. (See notes)
If done correctly you should see the first lan led glowing slowly and
you should be able to enter the U-Boot web interface.

Click on the second tab ("固件") and select the -factory.bin firmware
then click "Update firmware".

A screen "Update in progress" should appear.

After few minutes the flash should be completed.

This procedure can be used also to recover the router in case of soft
brick.

Backup the original firmware
----------------------------
The following steps are intended for a linux pc. However using the
right software this guide should also work for Windows and MacOS.

1) Install a tftp server on your pc. For example tftpd-hpa.

2) Create two empty files in your tftp folder called:
	kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

3) Give global write permissions to these files:
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin
	chmod 666 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

4) Start a netcat session on your pc with this command:
	nc -u -p 6666 192.168.1.1 6666

5) Set the static address on your pc: 192.168.1.2. Connect the router
	to your pc.

6) Turn the router on while pressing the reset button for 8-9 seconds.
	You can simply count the flashes of the first lan led. If you
	press the reset button for too many seconds it will continue
	the normal boot, so you have to restart the router. (See notes)

7) If done correctly you should see the U-Boot network console and you
	should see the following lines on the netcat session:
Version and build date:
  U-Boot 1.1.4-55f1bca8-dirty, 2020-05-07

Modification by:
  Piotr Dymacz <piotr@dymacz.pl>
  https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

u-boot>

8) Start the transfer of the whole NOR:
	tftpput 0x9f000000 0x1000000 kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin

9) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16777216 (0x1000000)

10) Repeat the same transfer for the firmware:
	tftpput 0x9f050000 0xfa0000 kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin

11) The router should start the transfer and it should end with a
	message like this (pay attention to the bytes transferred):
TFTP transfer complete!

Bytes transferred: 16384000 (0xfa0000)

12) Now you have the backup for the whole nor and for the firmware
	partition. If you want to restore the OEM firmware from OpenWrt
	you have to flash the kuwfi_c910_firmware_only.bin from the
	U-Boot web interface.

	WARNING: Don't use the kuwfi_c910_all_nor.bin file. This file
	is only useful if you manage to	hard brick the router or you
	damage the art partition (ask on the forum)

Notes
-----
This router (or at least my unit) has the pepe2k's U-Boot. It's a
modded U-Boot version with a lot of cool features. You can read more
here: https://github.com/pepe2k/u-boot_mod

With this version of U-Boot, pushing the reset button while turning on
the router starts different tools:
 - 3-5 seconds: U-Boot web interface that can be used to replace the
 	firmware, the art or the U-Boot itself
 - 5-7 seconds: U-Boot uart console
 - 7-10 seconds: U-Boot network console
 - 11+ seconds: Normal boot

The LTE modem can be used in cdc_ether (ECM) or RNDIS mode.
The default mode is ECM and in this commit only the ECM software is
included. In order to set RNDIS mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",3
In order to use again the ECM mode you must use this AT command:
	AT+QCFG="usbnet",1

Look for "Quectel_EC200T_Linux_USB_Driver_User_Guide_V1.0.pdf" for
other AT commands

6361a952af ramips: improve support for SIM SIMAX1800T and Haier HAR-20S2U1
1. Use ARTIFACTS to build factory image. This change allows users to
   generate initramfs factory image using OpenWrt ImageBuilder.

2. Override the default bootargs property defined in "mt7621.dtsi".
   Although we use the "bootargs-override" property to set bootargs,
   the default "bootargs" property will still be written into the
   device tree, so it is better to override it.

Tested on SIM SIMAX1800T
