The serial device name on Arm is ttyAMA, not ttyS. This splits the
configuration for Cloud images based on the architecture and adjusts the
kernel command line.
Note that prior to this change, aarch64 would still output kernel logs
to the ttyAMA0 console (on Azure, at least) due to the ACPI SPCR table.
On aarch64 the console in this table, if it's present, is _always_
configured as the kernel's default console. However, systemd logs would
not be sent to the serial console because it seems it was honoring the
kernel command line configuration which had ttyS0 as the default.

Although we include curl, some folks expect wget. Also, one of the more
common uses of WSL is in combination with VS Code, and its setup script
on remote hosts uses wget.

This should improve the experience by having separate clickable
links for each test matrix item and see the pass/fail more early.
Also make Testing Farm scale better as it uses separate TF requests
for testing.

This became necessary with 10.0.13 / after merging
https://github.com/OSInside/kiwi/pull/2535 but doesn't seem to
noticeable effects besides miisin "GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true" in
/etc/default/grub.
menu_auto_hide=1 is required for the boot_success provided by Fedora's
grub2 package. This will fall back to the previous kernel and show the
usually hidden grub menu when booting fails.
This makes it unnecessary to override the timeout_style and using a
reduced timeout of 1 second for disk images.
This drastically reduces the content included in the embedded ESP
for live media, and avoids weird side-effects caused by extra EFI
binaries being present.
It can be useful to have access to `setfiles` inside a `toolbx`
container. Especially when using them as bootstrap roots to setup
other trees.

The ldconfig cache generator runs on first boot and attempts to
read the whole image into memory, which eats gigabytes of RAM and
slows the boot down by half a minute. This is unnecessary for
images being booted unmodified.
Thus, create the necessary dot files to inhibit their runs.
It seems the larger chunk size seems to slow the start of images in
low memory environments due to the ldconfig cache generator unit
eating gigabytes of memory from mapping the chunks into memory.
Attempt to work around this by lowering the chunk size while raising
the compression level to attempt to maintain image sizes.
The Raspberry Pi 3 does not recognize a FAT filesystem marked with
the 0xef type, so until we drop support for this device, hack the
partition manually to use a legacy FAT filesystem partition type.
It is hard to ensure that hardware support packages are pulled in
universally when it's splintered across different variant profiles.
To fix this and ensure Server benefits from this, unify everything
into a common profile and make everything require it.
U-Boot does not support XFS and this causes significant issues
when trying to boot Fedora Server on single board computers.
Resolve this by using ext4 here, as all U-Boot variants generally
support this.
Turns out that different boards needs different values, so
hardcoding a specific one here is not a good idea. Luckily,
Linux can usually figure things out on its own and automatically
provide a working serial console.

This switches from SquashFS to EROFS using LZMA compression
with a 1M chunksize and fragement dedpulication for inodes enabled.
This attempts to match the defaults for SquashFS in kiwi and provides
a good balance for image compression and creation time.
Note that "-Ededupe" is not used because it is not multi-threaded and
is currently extremely slow.
Of the profiles that are currently listed, only LiveInstall
actually exists. Use BootCore instead, which all profiles derive
from. In most cases we'll end up locking the root user as part
of config.sh anyway.

This renames the minimal profile to "tiny", it's useful to have a
profile that builds quickly and provides a small artifact. However, the
minimal name mirrors the Fedora Minimal spin name and might confuse
people building images about what they're actually building.
The Tiny descriptions do not replicate the Fedora Minimal spin.
