Now two plugins are using hardcoded SPI constants for various CFI chips,
and it makes sense to have some common quirk data that can be used by
both.
Add a FuSpiChip helper object that can be used by FuDevice subclasses
to get the specific SPI commands to use for each flash ID.
Quite a few plugins are using a FuDeviceLocker to detach then attach in
the error path, and finding them isn't easy as we explicitly cast to a
FuDeviceLockerFunc.
For sanity, just provide both symbols so we can do the right thing in
both cases. It seems like a sensible thing to allow.

It's actually quite hard to build a front-end for fwupd at the moment
as you're never sure when the progress bar is going to zip back to 0%
and start all over again. Some plugins go 0..100% for write, others
go 0..100% for erase, then again for write, then *again* for verify.
By creating a helper object we can easily split up the progress of the
specific task, e.g. write_firmware().
We can encode at the plugin level "the erase takes 50% of the time, the
write takes 40% and the read takes 10%". This means we can have a
progressbar which goes up just once at a consistent speed.
The benefit of using the proxy device is that we can 'use' the proxy
device for device access, but 'report' the progress on the passed
FuDevice instance.
This means the front-end reports the device status correctly when
updating composite devices that us proxies.
The comment always said we should move it to the daemon if another
plugin started doing this, and that is now.
I assume at some point we forgot to remove it when converting an object
from FINAL to DERIVABLE and the anti-pattern just got copied around the
codebase...
The CustomFlags feature is a bit of a hack where we just join the flags
and store in the device metadata section as a string. This makes it
inefficient to check if just one flag exists as we have to split the
string to a temporary array each time.
Rather than adding to the hack by splitting, appending (if not exists)
then joining again, store the flags in the plugin privdata directly.
This allows us to support negating custom properties (e.g. ~hint) and
also allows quirks to append custom values without duplicating them on
each GUID match, e.g.
[USB\VID_17EF&PID_307F]
Plugin = customflag1
[USB\VID_17EF&PID_307F&HUB_0002]
Flags = customflag2
...would result in customflag1,customflag2 which is the same as you'd
get from an enumerated device flag doing the same thing.
Add a FuDevice->ready() vfunc that is run after ->setup()
This allows plugins to perform setup actions that require quirk matches
after the instance IDs have been converted. This allows us to also
remove FuVliDevice->setup() as the ordering chain has been broken.
There are two USB-3 hubs internally (with the same VID&PID), and the
MSP430 is only attached to the top-level one.
Fixes https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/issues/3366
Before this change calling FuUsbDevice->open() opened the device, and
also unconditionally added various GUIDs and InstanceIDs which we
normally do in setup.
Then fu_device_setup() would call the FuSubclass->setup() vfunc which
would have no way of either opting out of the FuUsbDevice->setup()-like
behaviour, or controlling if the parent class ->setup is run before or
after the subclass setup.
Split up FuUsbDevice->open() into clear ->open() and ->setup() phases
and add the parent class calls where appropriate.
This means that ->setup() now behaves the same as all the other vfuncs.
There is a lot of code in fwupd that just assigns a shared object type to
a FuPlugin, and then for each device on that plugin assigns that same shared
object to each FuDevice.
Rather than proxy several kinds of information stores over two different levels
of abstraction create a 'context' which contains the shared *system* state
between the daemon, the plugins and the daemon.
This will allow us to hold other per-machine state in the future, for instance
the system battery level or AC state.
This makes a lot more sense; we can parse a firmware and export the same XML
we would use in a .builder.xml file. This allows us to two two things:
* Check we can round trip from XML -> binary -> XML
* Using a .builder.xml file we can check ->write() is endian safe
This allows us to 'nest' firmware formats, and removes a ton of duplication.
The aim here is to deprecate FuFirmwareImage -- it's almost always acting
as a 'child' FuFirmware instance, and even copies most of the vfuncs to allow
custom types. If I'm struggling to work out what should be a FuFirmware and
what should be a FuFirmwareImage then a plugin author has no hope.
For simple payloads we were adding bytes into an image and then the image into
a firmware. This gets really messy when most plugins are treating the FuFirmware
*as* the binary firmware file.
The GBytes saved in the FuFirmware would be considered the payload with the
aim of not using FuFirmwareImage in the single-image case.
Rather than trying to guess typos, force each plugin to register the quirk
keys it supports, so we can show a sensible warning if required at startup on
the console.
The best way of not getting something wrong is to not require it in the first
place...
All plugins now use DeviceInstanceId-style quirk matches and we can just drop
the prefix in all files. We were treating HwId=, Guid= and DeviceInstanceId= in
exactly the same way -- they're just converted to GUIDs when building the silo!
Devices may want to support more than one protocol, and for some devices
(e.g. Unifying peripherals stuck in bootloader mode) you might not even be able
to query for the correct protocol anyway.
It is far too easy to forget to set FWUPD_DEVICE_FLAG_NO_GUID_MATCHING for new
plugins, and without it it all works really well *until* a user has two devices
of the same type installed at the same time and then one 'disappears' for hard
to explain reasons. Typically we only need it for replug anyway!
Explicitly opt-in to this rarely-required behaviour, with the default to just
use the physical and logical IDs. Also document the update behavior for each
plugin to explain why the flag is being used.
This allows you to have two identical Unifying plugged in without one of them
being hidden from the user, at the same time allowing a HIDRAW<->USB transition
when going to and from bootloader and runtime modes.
This removes the workaround added in 99eb3f06b6.

This allows us to check that the plugin is writing into a mutable buffer. Also
fix up the plugins that are currently 'wrong' and use the new function for the
plugins doing the right thing.
At the moment FuChunks are sometimes mutable, and sometimes immutable, and it's
all a bit too low level for comfort.
Before we can do any kind of optimisation or verification we need plugins to
stop reading directly from the C structure. The aim here is to make FuChunk
optionally mutable without making assumptions about the memory model, and also
to be able to introspect it for the docs.
When this is done, include:
* Including the hash
* Including anything that is not ABI stable in plugins yet

The end year is legally and functionally redundant, and more importantly causes
cherry-pick conflicts when trying to maintain old branches. Use git for history.
