2119189361 treewide: bulk update patches with status field
While the insane.bbclass upstream-status check hasn't been made
default, users of meta-virtualization may have it enabled in their
distros .. so the effect is the same. We must have this tracking
tag in out patches.

This is a bulk update to add the tag and silence the QA message.

As packages get updated, the normal/routine process of checking
the patches will continue, and the status fields may (or may not)
get more useful.

cdf6f55347 runx: allow internal and external busybox
runx knows how to build its own copy of busybox for its initrd,
adding a flag to allow us to select which mode we want.

d945c7a9ed runx: robustness changes
Adding one build and one runtime robustness change:

  - build: specify the syroot native as a library path to qemu user.
           This allows us to run dynamic executables

  - runtime: add a patch to increase the serial fd timeout. We'll
             drop this once it is merged upstream.

73fff50578 runx: update to v5.4 kernel
Updating to the tip of the runx repository. This brings in some build
changes, as well as introducing the v5.4 kernel.

Our patches for cross compilation need to be tweaked to the new
structure, as well as the install task to pickup the new location
of some files.

4ff05c1bc7 runx: introduce xen OCI container recipe
This is the initial version of the runX OCI wrapper to allow Xen based virtual
machines to be launched and managed as containers via an OCI interface.

In this first version, runx consists of the following components:

  - runX binary/wrapper (/usr/bin/)
  - state control wrappers (/usr/share/runX)
  - runx kernel
  - initrd

Once built and installed these allow the launching of Xen virtual machines
in an OCI compliant manner.

Dependencies of this recipe include:

  - kernel: must be a specific version, currently 4.15. This is done as
            a nested build and not as a multiconfig (by design).
  - static target busybox: used for the initrd
  - initrd: constructed from the kernel + busybox

The configuration of the system to build the dependencies in the right
mode for use in runX is controlled via the DISTRO_FEATURE "vmsep". If
this feature is missing, and runx is bitbaked, an error is thrown.

Installing the "runx" package to a rootfs will install all the required
support components (and dependencies).
