Description This set of changes tries to handle the requirement of reducing cache misses by removing the REVISION prefix from the tag of the OCI cache. It works by making use of a tag that doesn't include the version prefix. Once the artifact is fetched, if the filename is not what we expect, then the file is renamed to the expected file name. This can be required in cases when REVISION is bumped but no changes are done for the artifact. In that case, for example, we might be looking for a artifact with version 23.08.1-trunk prefix while the artifact thats available and is identical to the needed artifact might have version starting with 23.08.0-trunk. Only the OCI tags …

odroidxu4: fix the custom_kernel_config__hack_odroidxu4_firmware() for version hash @belegdol since you're the expert on xu4, is this even needed anymore? It probably works now, but would be nice to get rid of it. Context: that "firmware copy for xu4" was mixed in the middle of kernel compile logic, and was extracted into a kernel config hook; kernel configs are hashed (for caching) and thus need to work even when kernel_work_dir is not set. The hash component has been added. JIRA: AR-1548 View the full article

In my initial commit I assumed CONFIG_USE_PREBOOT=y was enabled by default. I was wrong. As reported by MicroLinux (Salva) on DISCORD the unit was still having issues booting. I sent him a patch I use which enables preboot and he reported back that "It boots fine now". NOTES: The patch he tested also had boot logo support enabled.
