This means that `grub-install` and `update-grub` no longer risk
bricking the device, but will produce boot scripts with Mender support
integrated. It also means that the standard GRUB menu will be
available.
It is supported on x86_64 platforms where `grub.d` is available, and
can be turned on and off with `MENDER_GRUB_D_INTEGRATION`. The default
is to use it if available.
Devices that did not previously use `grub.d` integration won't be
upgraded correctly with it turned on, so it is advised to set
`MENDER_GRUB_D_INTEGRATION=n` if you are upgrading existing devices.

Changelog: The mender-convert docker image does now contain the mender-convert application and does no longer need companion checkouts.
Changelog: All input files passed to docker-mender-convert must be located within the input directory as opposed to anywhere in the mender-convert checkout directory

This moves the device configuration to a config script in configs/, from the
previous setup in the bootstrap scripts.
It does so by creating a new resources/ folder in the top-level directory, which
is then populated with the configuration file, and the server parameters only.
When the conversion is run with the demo configuration
configs/mender_convert_demo_config the conversion will install all the add-on's
available, and modify the configuration file in resources to align with our
regular Mender demo configuration.
Changelog: Add a demo configuration in configs/mender_convert_demo_config which
when added at run time creates a Mender demo setup in the converted image. This
includes short polling intervals, and all add-on's installed by default.

Add a deb module with reverse engineered logic to download a given deb

- Issue: #MEN-3725
The following new config variables have been added which closely mirror those used in meta-mender
to give fine grained controll over partition device paths. If partuuid support is enabled then
these partition variables must be used as format doesnt fit device/number variables scheme.
If partuuid support is disabled then partition variables are optional liek in meta-mender.
MENDER_ENABLE_PARTUUID
MENDER_BOOT_PART
MENDER_ROOTFS_PART_A
MENDER_ROOTFS_PART_B
MENDER_DATA_PART
Example:
MENDER_BOOT_PART="/dev/disk/by-partuuid/26445670-f37c-408b-be2c-3ef419866620" #gpt
MENDER_BOOT_PART="/dev/disk/by-partuuid/26445670-01" #dos
MENDER_BOOT_PART="/dev/sda1" #partuuid support disabled
Changelog: Partition UUID support added for gpt/dos partition tables for deterministic booting

Previously the user would have to manually decompress an input image prior to
handing it over to mender-convert. With this change, files compressed in the
formats: lzma, gzip, or zip archives will be automatically decompressed,
converted, and then recompressed.
Note that the zip archive can only contain one image file, otherwise the
conversion will fail. Thus if the archive contains multiple files, human
interaction is required. This simply involves unzipping the archive yourself,
and then pass in the image, just like in the old workflow.
Ticket: https://tracker.mender.io/browse/MEN-3052
Changelog: Added automatic decompression of input images, so that the convert
tool now accepts compressed input images in the formats: lzma, gzip, and zip.
The images will also be recompressed to the input format automatically.

The goals of the re-write was to achieve the following:
1. It should be easy to extend the tool to support other boards or distributions
2. We should not compile code in the tool (rely on binaries built elsewhere)
compiling code increases complexity, due to requirement of toolchains etc.
3. The tool shall not be designed around specific hardware/platform types
- This is the case today with the usage of --device-type flag
4 The tool should be to convert images without knowing anything about the hardware/platform
relates to above 3.
5. Configuration interface should be simplified
- command line flags -> configuration files
6. Platform specific code shall be provided trough “hooks”, and are not part of the “core” mender-convert code
7. It shall be easy to extend functionality
- support for rootfs overlay to inject user applications/configurations
- ability to override how the Mender Artifact is generated (to be able to sign and include state-scripts)
8. Code structure should be modular
- Eases Maintenance and possibility of making isolated changes

So far the assumption has been that we are targeting an arm (32-bit),
when we are compiling the Mender client during docker container build.
To be able to support other platfors we need to parameterize this, and
this commit adds support for arm64.

When installing the client, call "make install" from source directory
and then modify the default setup with the user input (tenant token,
server url, demo...), eliminating this way the duplication on the
install recipe.
Also, setting the default build version to 2.0.0 beta
Other minor changes along the way:
* Include liblzma build dependency
* Change --mender-client parameter to be optional
* Abort on error in convert-stage-4.sh
* Bugfix in getting server_cert from command line option
* Error reporting when using unsupported device
* Clean-up obsolete --help example

We had dependency because we where using an older U-boot version
which only compiled with gcc6. Since we now have updated to a

use binares in 'gcc-arm-linux-gnueabihf' upstream package

creation.
