Chimera Linux

CAUTION: the new kernel management/backup system has landed in github.com/chimera-linux/cport

this will result in your most recent kernel before the updated one disappearing due to package hooks going away

also be extra careful everything is intact after upgrade especially if you use out of tree modules (e.g. zfs) and report issues if you run into any

i tried my best to iron out any edge cases, so hopefully i got it all right, but still

now for the good things - the new system keeps backups while also automatically pruning old kernels, so you don't need chimera-prunekernels anymore; after the upgrade, you can run `chimera-prunekernels rm all` (the command will remain for a while) to ditch all the pre-transition stuff and from now on you won't have to worry about it

it also has much nicer initramfs regen behavior, centralized depmod handling, and finally no package pre/post hooks
