RFC: introduce armbian-base-files artifact, which downloads & repacks base-files from upstream distro

This was raised by Igor during upgrade testing. base-files upgrade coming from upstream distro causes many problems during upgrade, including losing the Armbian identity in /etc/os-release and /etc/issue.

  • bsp-cli: now depends on base-files (>= ${REVISION}), this way upgrading the bsp-cli causes our base-files to be installed   - bsp-cli no longer does gymnastics with /etc/os-release et al, all done in armbian-base-files now
  • general/apt-utils.sh: introduce apt_find_upstream_package_version_and_download_url()
  • base-files: add release to version, in order to comply with repo restrictions (valid repos can't have two different debs with same name and version, md5 must match)
