Mattias Walström 2b5ed0615f Bump libyang, libnetconf2, sysrepo and netopeer2
For netopeer2 we need to patch away local-users, since if it is enabled
netopeer2 requires all users that should be allowed to use netconf to
also be configured in ietf-netconf-server.

Also add some upstream patches.

Configuration Daemon

confd is the Infix configuration daemon that serves as the glue between sysrepo and netopeer2 (NETCONF) and the UNIX system under it all.

Factory & Failure Config

Infix supports both static and dynamically generated factory-config. At boot the dynamic is always generated to /run/confd/factory-config.gen, which is installed to /etc/factory-config.cfg and used by default, if that file does not already exist. The same applies to the failure mode configuration.

The following describes how a vendor/product specific config is found and installed into /etc/factory-config.cfg before the dynamic one is installed.

  1. /etc/factory-config.cfg: built into the image, e.g., r2s
  2. /usr/share/product/<PRODUCT>/etc/factory-config.cfg, where the <PRODUCT> is determined from the VPD, which is available after probe has run, in /run/system.json as "product-name". The lower case version of the string is used

In the second option a script running just after probe will in fact cp the complete product specific directory to /, meaning any file and directory that is writable at runtime can be overloaded with device specific versions.
