driver-injection-disk.sh: also probe disks for OEMDRV label (LP: #1332187)

63. By Dimitri John Ledkov on 2014-05-07

* Drop "Register rtc module on i386 and amd64". Kernel dropped this
  module. (LP: #1317077)
* Drop "Register lp module on i386 and amd64." as cups now ships
  /etc/modules-load.d/cups-filters.conf which loads lp modules.

Add support for activating fakeraid devices with mdadm.

61. By Dimitri John Ledkov on 2013-10-04

[ Colin Watson ]
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
  - Remove FireWire Ethernet support.
  - Register lp module on i386 and amd64.
  - Exit zero if you continue all the way through ethdetect's errors about
    having no network interfaces.
  - Register rtc module on amd64.
  - Drop priorities of a couple of ethdetect questions to medium.
  - disk-detect.sh: Do not check the kernel command line for any option
    to enable dmraid support. If functional dmraid arrays are found, the
    user will be asked if they wish to activate them.
  - Make dmraid logging a bit neater.
  - 'dmraid -c -s' changed its output format; cope with both old and new.
  - Remove dm-emc from the multipath modules, since it's gone since
    2.6.27.
  - Improve checks for dm-* drivers being present to avoid relying on them
    being built as modules.
  - Offer iSCSI targets for preseeding if partman-iscsi is available and
    no disk devices are found.
  - Stop installing acpi, acpid, and acpi-support-base if acpi is
    available.
  - Add an 'archdetect-deb' package, containing /usr/bin/archdetect. Add
    an archdetect(1) manual page.
  - Refer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2 in debian/copyright.
  - Load xenbus_probe_frontend if we're running under the Xen hypervisor.
  - Redirect update-dev output to /dev/null, as it is in principle
    possible for it to write to stdout and that would interfere with
    debconf.
* Drop changes for PS3 and Cell, since we haven't been able to support
  these platforms for some time.

[ Dmitrijs Ledkovs ]
* Move firmware/injected drivers' .deb packages installation from
  post-base-installer.d stage to pre-pkgsel.d stage. (LP: #1209287, LP:
  #1216043)
* Bump question to load driver injection disk from medium to high, and
  raise driver-injection-disk package priority to standard. Thus the
  udeb will be loaded by default, but before installing any debs from
  the OEMDRV a confirmation question will be asked (default true, can be
  pre-seeded)
