2022.08-rc1, released August 12th, 2022

	Fixes all over the tree and new features.

	Architecture

	- Support for NDS32 removed
	- Support for C-SKY removed
	- Support for configurable page size on ARM64 added
	- Architecture menu re-organized: the MMU selection now
	  appears in this architecture menu.

	Toolchain:

	- GCC 12.x support added, GCC 11.x is now the default
	  compiler, and support for building a GCC 9.x toolchain has
	  been removed.
	- glibc bumped to 2.35-134-gb6aade18a7e5719c942aa2da6cf3157aca993fa4
	- uclibc bumped to 1.0.42
	- BR2_GCC_ENABLE_LTO option removed, the toolchain is now
	  always built with LTO support. The new option BR2_ENABLE_LTO
	  enables the use of LTO in a subset of packages that have
	  explicit handling for LTO.
	- GDB enabled on OpenRISC.
	- Toolchain menu now appears before "Build options". The
	  selection of the C library now determines whether static
	  library (BR2_STATIC_LIBS) will be available or not, instead
	  of the other way around.

	Filesystem:

	- genimage.cfg files now use shortcuts from genimage for the
	  GUID of well-known GPT partitions.

	Bootloaders:

	- U-Boot can now be built with host-gnutls as a dependency,
	  needed for some configurations
	- OP-TEE can now be built with host-python-pillow as a
	  dependency, needed for some configurations.
	- OP-TEE source can now be retrieved from a custom tarball
	  URL.
	- Grub has been bumped to 2.06.

	Over 390 packages updated.
