Support updating using github artifacts #326

Closed popcornmix closed 1 year ago

Now that linux kernel PRs automatically build kernel artifacts, it could be useful for early testing to update directly from the artifact zip file.

The artifacts are found from linux repo, actions, Pi kernel build tests, workflow link. Then clock number of artifacts (currently 6) and the specific buld you want (e.g. bcm2711_build)

github doesn't provide easy automatic access to artifact links, but they can be downloaded and the local zip file can be used with: rpi-upate <zip file> or you can use a download url (using a different download site, or a github artifact proxy) rpi-update <http url>
