LE 12.0 added lvm2, luks (dm-crypt, veracrypt), mdraid, ext4 encryption

download link https://sky42.libreelec.tv/testing/12.0/

If you have any problems please install nightly LibreELEC version on which my build is based on and test again. If the problem is the same it is most likely not my build.

If you dont use any of the following additions i made, then my images have no benefit for you and you should use the official build.

the following was added in my community build:

- /flash 1024MB
- no GUI tools for the encryptiom, lvm2 or mdraid
- enable kernel config for lvm2 and snapshots (no cache, no thin)
- added lvm2 tools (config is under /storage/.config/lvm)
- enable kernel config for software raid with lvm2 and standalone with mdraid
- added mdraid to control linux software raid
- enable kernel config for dm-crypt to use cryptsetup (compatible with luks, veracrypt, truecrypt)
- added cryptsetup to manage encrypted block devices with luks, veracrypt and some more
- enabled /etc/crypttab support in systemd
- enable kernel config for ext4 filesystem encryption
- added fscryptctl to manage ext4 encryption
- enable kernel config for more crypto modules and options
- curl: enable protocol support for scp, sftp, smb, smbs
- versions: cryptsetup-2.6.1, lvm2-2.03.16, fscryptctl-1.1.0, mdadm-4.2
- PR8588 Generic: added intel-gpu-max-10-bit.sh helper
- PR8751 pipewire: enable for all images, but dont start if alsa or pulse in on
- PR8749 pipewire: hardwire extra config to ~/.config/pipewire
- PR8750 wireplumber: hardwire extra config to ~/.config/wireplumber
- Generic: new device BT2020 (only added kodi PR24160)

Builds are done for all official LE 12 supported architectures and devices.

new device Generic-BT2020 is based on Generic with the following changes
- added kodi PR24160 enable HDR passthrough for HDR videos with incomplete(?) metadata info
- nothing else so far (no PVR flickeruing patch from smp as in LE11)
