As part of building the kernel, the scripts directory contains some
binaries. Most of these binaries don't have debuginfo (because they
don't need it) which throws off the packaging. Since these are
binaries and we have the source files, just remove them from the
buildroot.
The BootLoaderSpec defines an optional version field that contains a human
readable version string for the menu item. This can be used by bootloaders
to set the boot menu item names instead of the optional title field.
For example the zipl bootloader used by s390x architecture doesn't support
names that contains spaces, so it uses the kernel version as the item name.

New gcc, new warnings:

Bring in a quick fix for now.
A recent change to the EFI lockdown patch forces IMA policy to be loaded
when secureboot is used. Unfortunately, we don't have all the pieces in
place to have all components fully signed. Disable appraisal for now
until that gets fixed.
The BootLoaderSpec (BLS) defines a scheme where different bootloaders can
share a format for boot items and a configuration directory that accepts
these common configurations as drop-in files [0].
Generate BLS snippets at build time that can be copied on kernel install,
so bootloaders can parse to create menu entries using this information.
