The INSTALL_CONFIG is "on" by default. When set to off,
no *.conf file, both global and related to a single module,
will be installed. A warning message is printed by cmake too,
and the module description is edited to make this visible.
This is useful for testing, when we want to install our
own libraries and binary but keep the configuration of the
live system we are testing on (e.g. path to distro image).
Tested on the master branch.
We need master to have a higher version than the stable branch. I used
2.4.80 so that it can be bumped again to 2.4.90 when starting to do
alpha/beta/RC releases.

Package groups are divided into critical and non-critical
depending on whether we want all Calamares to fail if installing
a package in the group fails, or we are okay with just logging a
warning.
The distinction is configured in the YAML file listing the package
groups. By default, all groups are critical, to keep supporting
the previous behaviour.
On 32-bit UEFI (note that the bitness of the firmware is what matters
here, not the bitness of the distribution), instead of copying
grubx64.efi to bootx64.efi, copy grubia32.efi to bootia32.efi.

Use QNetworkAccessManager instead of raw QtDBus queries to
NetworkManager in RequirementsChecker::checkHasInternet(). This is much
simpler (i.e., less error-prone) and should be more portable (to, e.g.,
ConnMan).
Unfortunately, rsync returns exit code 23 (Partial transfer due to
error) if it cannot write extended attributes (with -X) because the
target file system does not support it, e.g., the FAT EFI system
partition. We need -X because distributions using file system
capabilities and/or SELinux require the extended attributes. But
distributions using SELinux may also have SELinux labels set on files
under /boot/efi, and rsync complains about those. The only clean way
would be to split the rsync into one with -X and --exclude /boot/efi and
a separate one without -X for /boot/efi, but only if /boot/efi is
actually an EFI system partition. For now, this hack will have to do.

for the same issue in Anaconda, which uses a similar workaround.
In other words, support:
hidden: false
selected: true
groups.
This was supposed to work according to README.md, but not actually
implemented. Now it should be working.
Since sddm.conf follows the INI format we can use configparser
with a few added options to properly parse the config and write
it out instead of manually parsing each line which is slow and
prone to error.
For eg. The old code would fail to parse a conf which had no
commented out User key but where the user had configured autologin
in Calamares.
Address an old FIXME in
PartitionCoreModule::scanForEfiSystemPartitions(): Check the FlagEsp on
the Partition object (that KPMcore has been supporting since 2.1.0)
instead of running sgdisk.
The manual partitioning setup was already requiring the user to check
the ESP flag for the EFI System Partition. Now the autopartitioning also
sets it directly (a one-line change). The sgdisk call in the bootloader
module is thus no longer necessary (it was only a workaround because
kpmcore < 2.1.0 did not support FlagEsp), so remove that snippet.
This fixes configurations such as NVME disks where splitting boot_device
into boot_device[-1:] and boot_device[:-1] is not the correct split
(because the partition gets a 2-letter suffix) (reported by demmm on
IRC).
