- Allow squashfscompression for plain squashfs
  The schematron rule to limit the squashfscompression attribute
  to certain image types did not allow it for a plain squashfs
  filesystem build. This commit fixes that limitation.
  This Fixes #2241

- Use rsync defaults to sync the initrd root-tree
  This commits makes use of rsync default options to sync
  the root-tree of the boot image for custom initrds.
  Fixes bsc#1207128 where it was noted hardlinks
  were not preserved inside the initrd.

- Fixed wrong test assertions
  Former versions of pytest did ignore invalid assertions.
  Now they are reported as an error and show the mistakes
  of the past

- Added 90-brd.conf for test-image-disk-ramdisk
  By default the brd ramdisk module is no longer added to the
  initrd. For ramdisk deployments this is required though.
  This Fixes #2230

- Allow to pass credentials as file reference

- Fixed handling of container archive compression
  In kiwi we support handling of the container archive compression
  via a runtime configuration setting of the following form, eg
  in /etc/kiwi.yml
  ```yaml
  container:
  # Specify compression for container images
  # Possible values are true, false, xz or none.
  - compress: true
  ```
  However, this setting was only taken into account in the kiwi
  bundler. Meaning if the user calls 'kiwi result bundle ...'
  after the container image has been created the result bundler
  will take the compression setting into account. From my perspective
  this behavior is misleading and also prevents users from
  creating compressed container archives without a subsequent
  result bundler call. Therefore this commit moves the place to
  handle the compression setting into the container classes.
  The bundler code for containers will no longer operate on it
  and just takes what it gets, which can be either compressed
  or not. The default setting was "No compression" and this
  was not changed. This Fixes #2217

- Eliminate redundant partx calls for cleaning up loop devices
  partx can clean up all partition loops associated with a loop device
  when deleting the main loop device. Apparently, sometimes it goes and
  does this even when only deleting the partition loop, so to avoid
  this problem, we will just eliminate the redundant call.

- Update test-image-vagrant
  virtualbox-guest-x11 seems to be deleted from TW

- Fixed test-image-custom-partitions
  The test was done prior kiwi added the partitions element and

  These scripts uses kpartx and the device mapper. Due to the
  recent change from kpartx to partx the scripts must be
  adapted

- Swap from DM kpartx to util-linux partx for creating loop devices
  The device-mapper (DM) based loop devices that kiwi has historically
  generated creates issues when trying to run kiwi in confined build
  environments. The DM tools prefer to have a tighter coupling between
  userspace and kernel interfaces, and we cannot necessarily guarantee
  that in the variety of build environments that kiwi can be run in.
  In particular, Koji uses either nspawn containers or chroots through
  Mock to run kiwi and that is where this fails.
  However, we do not need to use DM for this purpose when util-linux
  provides a perfectly serviceable alternative. This commit changes
  kiwi's loop device setup to use partx(8) from util-linux instead.
  As long as the appliance image being created doesn't use a disk
  scheme that requires DM, it becomes entirely possible to produce
  an image without needing DM at runtime at all.

- Increase scope of kernel lookup
  So far kiwi was looking up kernels only on /boot. Including
  other bootloaders it's no longer required that the kernel
  packages of the distributions provides the kernel in /boot
  Thus kiwi's lookup needs to be extended to other places
  which is done by this commit.

- Add GRUB_DEFAULT=saved if not set
  If there is no GRUB_DEFAULT setting in etc/default/grub
  we add GRUB_DEFAULT=saved as the default setting.
  This Fixes #2198

- Disable gitlab CI pipeline
  Unfortunately gitlab decided to allow only eligible
  projects to use their CI pipeline. Being a member for
  years seems not to count in this change process.
  Therefore this commit disables the tests we run on
  gitlab and I will come up with a simple github action
  for the parts that we don't want to loose.

- Added integration test for systemd_boot
  The test build is based on the Fedora distribution
  and provides a simple non-secure-boot systemd-boot
  virtual disk image

- no_implicit_optional = False

- Added --loglevel option
  specify logging level as number. Details about the
  available log levels can be found at:

  Setting a log level causes all message >= level to be
  displayed.

- Consolidate and cleanup logging
  Make sure all loggers; stream handlers, file and socket
  handler uses the same logging format. Also make sure that
  there is only one place for setLogLevel when kiwi is
  used as application

- Added support for --logsocket

- ignore the type check on the Result class
  With an update of mypy the bound TypeVar is no longer allowed.
  In newer versions of python we could use the "Self" type or
  import annotations from the future module. Unfortunately in
  older python versions which we still support (3.6) there is
  no non intrusive change which allows us to handle that type
  annotation. Thus this commit ignores the return type spec
  for Result.load() for the moment.

- Stop copying /dev files statically into the OCI container
  In containers (nspawn) where part of the /dev filesystem is bind-mounted
  from outside system, kiwi fails to do the rsync (in creation of the
  nodes).
  There is no reason to actually copy whole tree inside so let's just
  not do it (as it does not seem to be needed at all).

- List riscv64 as a valid architecture in the schemas
  This is needed so that architecture filters on riscv64 specifics can
  be defined.

- Support DM integrity legacy options
  Add a new attribute integrity_legacy_hmac="true|false" which
  allows to use old flawed HMAC calculation (does not protect superblock).
  Add a new attribute integrity_legacy_padding="true|false" which
  allows to use inefficient legacy padding. Do not use these attributes

- Fixed test-image-disk-legacy
  Increase size of embedded EFI fat image needed for EFI
  bootable install ISO. Due to the increased size of the
  custom kiwi initrd the default size for the FAT image
  is too small

- Support custom size for embedded EFI FAT image
  For ISO images (live and install) the EFI boot requires an embedded
  FAT image. As of now a fixed size of 20M was used which leads to a
  problem if the EFI image or the initrd or the kernel is bigger than
  20M. With the new attribute:
  efifatimagesize="nonNegativeInteger"
  we can now set a different value for the FAT image. Please note the
  value must be aligned to the also customizable efipartsize value
  which allows to configure the size of the EFI partition

- Umount device before cloning
  In case a clone should be created from a partition we need
  to make sure to umount the device after sync and prior cloning.
  Otherwise the clone operation is not safe because the rsynced
  data might still be in memory and not synced out to the block
  device.

- Fixed custom disk start sector setup
  The attribute disk_start_sector allows to specify a custom
  start sector for the first partition of the disk. On GPT
  tables everything works nicely, on DOS tables the used tools
  fdisk/sfdisk are not able to manage the start/end values of
  subsequent partitions if the first partition doesn't start
  with the tooling default. This patch allows to set the
  start sector after the partition table has been created

- Fixed handling of signing_keys in cmdline options
  When passing signing_keys with the --add-repo|--set-repo
