this is required for secure boot support.
at build time, an ephemeral key pair will be generated and all built modules
will be signed with it. the private key is discarded, and the public key
embedded in the kernel image for signature validation at module load time.
this change means that every kernel release must be considered an ABI change
from now on, else the signatures of on-disk modules and the signing key
embedded in the running kernel image might not match.

long overdue, and avoids the issue of the meta packages version going down
after being folded in from the pve-kernel-meta repository.
the ABI needs to be bumped for every published kernel package now that modules
are signed, else the booted kernel image containing the public part of the
ephemeral signing key, and the on-disk (potentially upgraded in-place) signed
module files can disagree, and module loading would fail.

no fun to build the kernel with just a single job at the same time,
which happens e.g., in an sbuild environment.

lintian rightfully errors out on this one, makes no sense to depend
on an implementation detail of the perl packaging ecosystem.

but allow discarding BTF information when loading modules, so that upgrades
which are otherwise ABI compatible still work. this allows using BTF
information when matching and available, while degrading gracefully if the
currently running kernel is not identical to the one that module was built for.
in case of a mismatch, the kernel will log a warning when loading the module,
for example:
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF: type_id=184 bits_offset=4096
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF:
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF: Invalid name
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: BPF:
Jan 30 13:57:58 test kernel: failed to validate module [bonding] BTF: -22
