The factory-shipped MinnowBoardMAX board has firmware that does not include
the ESRT table. Create a 'fake' UEFI device with the lowest possible version
so that it can be updated to any version firmware.
All the HwId GUIDs are used for the fake UEFI device, and so should be used in
the firmware metadata for releases that should recover the system.
The fwupd UEFI plugin refuses to start if bit 3 of the "BIOS Characteristics
Extension Byte 2" (13h) is cleared. Bit 3 is UEFI Specification is supported.
Also, double-check that /sys/firmware/efi does not exist before disabling the
plugin as other machines may be affected too. The quirk then acts to supress
the console warning about the broken SMBIOS value.
Fixes https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/1342
- Moved version discovery routine to PKGBUILD
- Set PKGEXT to .pkg.tar to avoid the package being compressed
- Added --needed to pacman arguments when installing the dependencies to
avoid reinstalling packages

These are a more scalable way to apply firmware across a variety of
platforms.
An example:

The new firmware for receivers with the nordic chips is using the 0x04
record type. This was previously not handled when parsing the file,
causing wrong behavior when trying to update the device. This patch
tries to properly deal with the record types, being them 0x04 or other.

This brings consistency to all fwupd output and allows stuff like
this:

Version: 0.1.7.0
Remote ID: lvfs
Summary: Firmware for the Dell XPS 13 9380
License: proprietary
Size: 0x1563d67
Vendor: Dell Inc.
Flags: is-upgrade
Description: This stable release fixes the following issues:
Fixed the issue where the Dell Power Manager displays an error when a 130W Type-C adapter is connected to the system.
new functionality has also been added:
Added a new feature to automatically suspend BitLocker before upgrading the firmware. After the firmware upgrade is complete, BitLocker is automatically enabled.
```
Mostly for consistency purpose. Details:
* It's confusing that internally the functions for `FwupdClient` use
`upgrade` in the name.
* The logical antonym of `downgrade` is `upgrade` not `update`
* People who don't use the tool frequently may try `get-upgrades`
This allows the daemon to set the base directory to store remotes.
This fixes issues with systemd where the installation prefix was set
to soemthing not writable such as `/usr/local` but systemd
`STATE_DIRECTORY` doesn't match up.

It should also hopefully help with immutable systems.
There are commits to the Thunderbolt kernel driver that make sure
that the upgrade process goes smoothly. If these commits aren't
present then it will look like a fwupd problem, when it's actually
a kernel problem.
When this issue was reported it appeared that commit
e4be8c9b6a
was missing from the locally tested kernel, but it's impossible
to determine that from userspace.
Prevent running the thunderbolt plugin on older kernels than that
set in `$sysconfdir/fwupd/thunderbolt.conf`.
By default that is set to 4.13.0, but if a distribution vendor has
backported all the necessary support it can be decreased to a lower
version for distro packages.
This removes the 'two-layer' FuDevice and FuSyanpticsmstDevice model, where
a complicated plugin cache was used to add and remove devices to the daemon.
By making FuSynapticsmstDevice derive from FuDevice rather than GObject we can
also use a lot of the helper functionality like the other plugins, for instance
->prepare_firmware().
The `drm_dp_aux_dev` devices do not emit uevents on unplug/re-plug and so all
devices of `drm` class are watched and the actual DP AUX devices rescanned after
a small delay. When the AUX devices emit changes from the kernel this workaround
can be removed.
Also drop force power support for MST controllers in the Dell plugin. Overall
this has just led to more problems than it's helped.
* Monitor flickers when turned on
* Crashing graphics drivers from time to time
* Fragile logic that doesn't always represent the device state
* Show "No Device ID" if no matching devices
* Don't show flags if no flags available

The test is run if a physical TPM is available or if the environment
variable "TPM_SERVER_RUNNING" is set. In the latter case, the user is
expected to start a TPM simulator on their own, like we do in the Arch
Linux CI script here.
Using the library instead of the command line tools provides a more
stable interface. This implementation only fetches PCR 0 for all
available hash algorithms since this is the only PCR that is actually
used in fwupd.
This allows plugins to rescan hardware based on uevents of any device class
registered with fu_plugin_add_udev_subsystem().
Additionally, the events are rate limited to avoid causing lots of extra plugin
processing when replugging hardware.
