libre: Add linux-libre-vanilla
This new kernel enables to test if maintaining a kernel without additional patches is easier and faster: - Not having to refresh patches makes it faster to update the kernel. And the procedure to liberate the Arch Linux patches is also not documented (though with trial and errors someone can relatively easy manage to do it, but that's time consuming). - Some of the patches are never upstreamed so they stay there for years. This also means that what work in Parabola is broken in other FSDG compliant distributions because they don't use these patches. In addition this kernel also enable users to test their hardware with a stock linux-libre kernel. In the past the armv7h Parabola kernel carried out patches to make capes work on the Beaglebone Single Board Computers. This made me think that this feature was upstream because it worked in Parabola. The patches to do that were removed at some point so it stopped working. So if I started relying on it it would have been a very bad idea as it would have stopped working without even a warning. Signed-off-by: Denis 'GNUtoo' Carikli <GNUtoo@cyberdimension.org>
