The board config file was likely copy-pasted from a former `media` board and thus includes some stuff that is not needed, like the abandoned U-Boot repo which is basically an old fork from Raxda's vendor U-Boot.
- Switch to default rk3588 vendor U-Boot (using a generic rk3588 defconfig)
- Cleanup board config file
All remaining `media` boards have been integrated into the `rockchip64` family.
- Remove the family config
- Remove all kernel patch folders
- Remove all U-Boot patch folders
- Remove all kernel configs
Also move the ROCK_USB variable for RK3588 from rk3588.conf to rockchip64.conf to achieve consistency.
Remove the now obsolete variable for OrangePi 3B

The aml-s9xx-box builds use the native TV Box u-boot. I've had as a
todo item to figure out how to not build and include an unused u-boot.
In a recent PR for a different board the opposite was being done
(adding a u-boot where a board didn't previously ship one), thus
I then had the info to remove it here.
This also changes the generated extlinux.conf to include a fdt line
by adding the boot_fdt_file to the board config file. This reduces
the effort needed to manually modify the extlinux.conf.
- in practice:
- boards that didn't specify their own blobs: bump DDR 1.08->1.16 ; BL31 1.28 -> 1.45 (example: rock-5b!)
- boards that specified 1.16/1.45 individually now follow the defaults (no change)
- boards that specified a different version: no change; just a TODO suggesting review/removal/go-with-the-defaults
- Mekotronics boards: bump from 1.11/1.38 to defaults (1.16 / 1.45)
The "swapaccount=" option has been deprecated in 6.1. Disable it in almost all boot scripts except "boot-sun50iw9.cmd" since that one is used in sun50iw9 legacy kernel, which is version 4.9.

PR #6659 broke upgrades for the aml-s9xx-box package. That PR introduced
two new files in /boot which is a fat filesystem on this box. The
standard package upgrade fails on a fat filesystem when files already
exist. PR #6659 failed to add the files to the remove list. This
PR does that.
This variable was originally introduces for the board "Espressobin" (mvebu64): 38db0b55f9
Use a hook in the mvebu64 and mt7623 family config to set ignored devices for NetworkManager instead.
- Rename extensions with "net-*" prefix
- Put the extensions into their own folder
- Split off time sync packages into their own extensions to be able to be used separately
- Put their config files into directories instead of using inline `cat <<- EOF >`
- Move some other NetworkManager related stuff into the extension
- Remove unneeded steps
- Install iproute2 by default on all images (for the `ip` command)
- use Chrony with Network Manager
- use timesync with systemd-networkd
- use NetPlan with Network manager only
- move command-not-found to CLI image only
- improve firstlogin ip detection
