Since Ubuntu Eoan the kernel compression was changed from GZIP to
LZ4, due to slightly faster load times vs. a 25% size increase
trade-off (e.g. 5.0 had ~ 8, this one has ~ 12 MB; *but* the initrd
stays roughly the same size, and that one is 5 times bigger anyway)
If we want to keep that is in the stars, but for now correctly
document the build-dependency to LZ4.

The PC speaker (beeper) can only be managed by one module, and there
are two which could do so. The very basic INPUT_PCSPKR, and the more
advanced SND_PCSP which allows it to be used as primitive ALSA
soundcard, which for Proxmox Server projects, and all modern
workstations is not much of use.
As they both were aliased to the "pcspkr" module name, and used the
same internal driver name (being a replacment of the other), one
would get the following error message when both are loaded:
"Error: Driver 'pcspkr' is already registered, aborting..."
in the kernel log. This happens as by default both are tried to get
loaded. We do not want the more complex ALSA one, so disable that.

Allows to mount VFAT devices even if the currently running kernel was
removed before any VFAT, or other FS using the default Native
Language Support module was mounted during the current uptime.
This then could break updating the ESP partitions, which are mounted
with VFAT in a postrm triggered step - so at a time where the current
/lib/modules/... was already removed, and so the NLS could not get
loaded.
While there are a lot of different NLS, our kernel config has:
> CONFIG_FAT_DEFAULT_IOCHARSET="iso8859-1"
So compile that module as built-in.

Se it explicitly to myres, the current (since quite a bit) default of
git, to avoid noise in exports, just because another developer
prefers another algorithm here.

from Depends to Recommends, since we now have an alternate bootloader
setup for some scenarios. both our installer and Debian's default setup
still install Grub by default anyway, but this allows removal without
hacks in case such an alternate bootloader is used on the system.

RETPOLINE is now for sure included, further as this is build through
buildpackage the build dependencies are checked

the current OOT are not compatible with 5.0 and we want to obsolete
them anyway sooner or later
