Service daemon for mediating access to a GPS

Edit Package gpsd

gpsd is a service daemon that mediates access to a GPS sensor connected
to the host computer by serial or USB interface, making its data on the
location/course/velocity of the sensor available to be queried on TCP
port 2947 of the host computer. With gpsd, multiple GPS client
applications (such as navigational and wardriving software) can share
access to a GPS without contention or loss of data. Also, gpsd
responds to queries with a format that is substantially easier to parse
than NMEA 0183. A client library is provided for applications.

After installing this RPM, gpsd will automatically connect to USB GPSes
when they are plugged in and requires no configuration. For serial
GPSes, you will need to start gpsd by hand. Once connected, the daemon
automatically discovers the correct baudrate, stop bits, and protocol.
The daemon will be quiescent when there are no clients asking for
location information, and copes gracefully when the GPS is unplugged
and replugged.

- Re-enable LTO on aarch64

- Set ProtectClock to false or gpsd will not start

- Don't use gpsd version in patches (will break with every update)
  % harden_gpsd.service.patch
  % harden_gpsdctl@.service.patch

- Update to version 3.23.1
  * Improve ubx cycle detection.
  * Add quirks for Jackson Labs nonstandard NMEA
  * Change STATUS_NO_FIX to STATUS_UNK to avoid confusion with fix
    mode.
  * Change STATUS_FIX to STATUS_GPS to avoid confusion with fix
    mode.
  * Change STATUS_DGPS_FIX to STATUS_DGPS to avoid confusion with
    fix mode.
  * Split SOURCE_ACM from SOURCE_USB.  ACM has no speeds.
  * Add speeds 1 mbps, 1.152 mbps, 1.5 mbps, and higher.  When libc
    supports them.
  * Improve autobaud.
  * Add new u-blox M10 messages.
  * Fix u-blox M6, M7 initialization issues.
  * Various ubxtool and gpxlogger updates.
  * Add mtk3301_speed_switcher()
  * No API, ABI changes.
  * Fallback to "python3" if "python" not found.

- Added hardening to systemd service(s) (bsc#1181400). Added patch(es):
  * harden_gpsd.service.patch
