qemu: switch to building wireless as kernel modules
...
This is a hefty change
* add support for kernel backports project
* build wireless stack/drivers as modules from a backported kernel
* create a service to load/unload the modules

gl-ar750: support _actual_ mtd/spi not just fake one
...
the ath9k driver needs MTD because that's where it looks for
firmware/calibration data (ART partition)

move dts config from kernel to boot

The kernel does not need to know about the DTS. I am prepared
to be very slightly injured on this hill.

this makes it possible for devices to stash things in
`config` (e.g. pathname to DTS) that can later be overwritten
(even by the end user)

speed up kernel build
...
by having two separate derivations for patching the kernel source tree
and building it, we have to copy said source trees from one store
location to another which takes non-neglible time on spinning rust
(literally minutes on my machine). Replace with a single derivation
that can do more things on one tree in-place

presently this is used to reference the appropriate kernel and (if
needed) openwrt source trees, but I would not be surprised if we find
other uses

HALFARSED enable toggling promptless kconfig symbols
...
Some kernel config symbols we need to enable in some configurations
don't have a "prompt" entry in the Kconfig files, meaning that
make oldconfig (or any other make fooconfig) won't change them.
So we add a Kconfig.local where they can be selected
In this patch we hardcode the required symbol. Next step would be
to generalise so that they could be specified in something like a
config.kernel.hiddenConfig attrset
