Norbert Kamiński 60e84c617f contrib/qubes: Add Qubes wrapper source and create packages
This patch is adding the fwupd wrapper for Qubes.
The wrapper provides fwupd functionalities for Qubes R4.1.
It creates three packages (two RPMs and one Debian package):
fwupd-qubes-dom0 (RPM)
fwupd-qubes-vm (RPM)
fwupd-qubes-vm-whonix (deb)
More information about the wrapper could be found in the
contrib/qubes/README.md

Whonix support

The qubes-fwupd uses the sys-whonix VM as the update VM to handle downloading updates and metadata via Tor. The tests detect if sys-whonix is running, but do not check if you are connected with Tor. So before running the test make sure that sys-whonix has access to the network.

Refresh

$ sudo qubes-fwupdmgr refresh --whonix

Update

$ sudo qubes-fwupdmgr update --whonix

Downgrade

$ sudo qubes-fwupdmgr downgrade --whonix
