The latest package does not have the Debian version suffixed.
Therefore, simply remove it in the case where it is needed.

The 'latest' tag is always pointing to the latest released Mender-client.
Therefore it is no longer necessary to update the client version on release.
Changelog: Package latest released Mender-client by default

Remove all the logic for the special handling of this submodule, and
treat it instead a regular Git submodule.
This commit updates the submodule to latest, removes the --no-pull
functionality, and removes the ignore of the submodule to make
developers aware
To ease maintenance, add also dependabot to pay attention to the future
updates of the submodule.

Originally the intention was to fix the U-Boot integration for
Beaglebone, but this seems to have been broken for a long time, almost
a year, and no one has complained about it. The problem appears to be
connected to this commit [1], but it's not entirely clear to me what
the fix should be, and there are a lot of patches for our U-Boot fork.
However, since the U-Boot integration is supposed to be the backup
solution, rather than dig into U-Boot I decided to just fix the UEFI
path instead. This method doesn't require any patching, but there is
a problem with the specific image which is available for download at
the time of writing. So just grab the boot loader and kernel pieces
from a later, yet unbuilt, image, and it all works again.
Changelog: Title
Changelog: beaglebone: Remove U-Boot integration, which has not worked
for a long time. U-Boot will still be used for booting, but GRUB will
be used for integration with Mender, by chainloading via UEFI.

Sounds scary, but it happens at build time, not runtime, so it cannot
brick devices. However, it was a frustrating exercise to uncover it,
as it is not entirely deterministic. This has been there for quite a
long time and I honestly cannot tell why it happened to me now.
Perhaps the exact location of the sparse holes on the filesystem makes
a difference. Or perhaps some versions of mkfs can handle it, others
not. All I know for sure, is that with `sparse` enabled I got massive
filesystem corruption (though sane enough to be somewhat readable) on
the rootfs. Without it, it's clean.

... not just for EFI configuration. This doesn't fix any immediate
problems, but some U-Boot configurations seem to make a reference to
this, so this is just being proactive.

Because we hardcode the name in the boot loader script, you can never
upgrade to a kernel with a different version string. Fix by using a
generic name and symlinking instead.

Since we chown and chmod files in the overlay, we need to ensure that we
can write to them in each of the bootstrap-rootfs-overlay generation
scripts.
Eventually, I think we should make overlays as tarballs with ownership
and permissions inside the archive to avoid this dance.

It turns out that issue was caused by selinux. Idea for relabeling rootfs

- 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
