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.

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.

which are otherwise ABI compatible still work. this allows using BTF

Debian did so since 5.10~rc7-1~exp1 and ubuntu only disabled it due
some concerns about "high" memory usage on many-core systems[0], high
is to be seen relative here as its 26 MiB on 208 cores[1] and only
matters for ubuntu as due to their snaps they may have a lot of
active squashfs mounts.
Proxmox projects do not use snaps, or other things that uses squashfs
instances a tall besides the installer. While some users may use a
few it is unlikely to cause much problems (a few 100 MiB should not
be a big problem on a server with hundreds of online cores.
Any how, to speed up decompression in our installer and use a similar
setting as Debian, the distro we're most similar too, enable this
Kconfig knob.

The prepare/compile/install targets feel a bit mixed, so it's not
100% clear where this should happen.
But as the `.headers_compile_mark` already triggers various kernel
build targets with a correct kconfig setup, it is a good fit to add
the modules_prepare step (which is recommended to use when preparing
a out-of-three (OOT) module build environment like dkms expects)
there. As we can only copy (= install) the `scripts` directory
afterwards it follows that it needs to be moved afterwards. Moving
installing the `include` directory there is not really necessary but
it feels like a better place than the _prepare_ target and safes a
extra line, so move that over too.
In terms of actual changes to the built header package we get
additionally the, now generated, module.lds file.

Those files are generated by the `if_changed` macro from
scripts/Kbuild.include and are not really useful or interesting for
being shipped in the header packages and other distros (checked
Debian and Ubuntu) do not seem to ship those at all..
So, lets prune them to reduce shipped files dramatically, without
losing, well, anything.

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.
