Create a variable called BUILD_PLATFORMS that lists the various pi images
to build. This keeps the platform list in one place in the makefile, rather
than sprinkled and repeated throughout multiple dependency and build lines.
When a platform is added (ie, the pi4) or removed, it won't touch multiple
rules and obscure other changes. This uses gmake-specific addprefix and
addsuffix.
This adds a debos recipe for building a desktop image for a ARM64-based
RaspberryPi. It include a lightweight desktop, that is LXDE, create a
default user "pi" that has sudo access rights. As on Raspbian, the "pi"
user is automatically logged in via lightdm. The buster debian splash is
also automatically enabled
This speeds up iterative development of a vmdb specification file: the
output of qemu-debootstrap and the apt installation additinal packages
are cached. They take up most of the time of a full run. If modifying
other parts of raspi3.yaml, this means an iteration drops from about
20 minutes to 16 seconds on my laptop.
If making changes to the cached parts, the cache tarball needs to be
deleted between runs.
The --rootfs-tarball options MUST now be used on all invocations.
Add the kpartx step. It is now mandtory for building an image
file. (Not necessary if building on a real drive directly.)
Use only one set of tag names: boot-part and root-fs. vmdb2 has
changed so that partitions and mount points share the same tag name
space: there's no need to have a tag for the partition and for the
mount point for that partition, anymore. As part of that, there's no
need to specify both the partition tag for the root partition, and
then also the tag for the mount point for that partition.

this works with.
