rpardini's big batch of lib changes from late March/23 (incl AR-1620 and AR-1639)

• (G) cli: commands: fix artifact aliases, reorder
• (G) configdump: better logging; insert (still unsupported) array/dict raw value and 2do markers into produced dump JSON
• (G) config: fix: replace undue export statements with declare -g; shellfmt
• (G) lib: fix: replace undue export statements with declare -g
• (G) run shellfmt; remove commented-out; no actual changes
• (G) distro-agnostic: emit 'info' message before setting root password, otherwise logs are confusing
• (G) distro-specific: fix installation of fake-ubuntu-advantage-tools
• (G) desktop/bsp-desktop: add config_dump method; fix artifact_map_debs ref subdir and name
• (G) artifact bsps: require aggregation to build, not to list what needs to be built
• (G) update library-functions.sh
• (G) distro-agnostic: fix install of armbian-bsp-cli (not armbian-bsp)
• (G) armbian-bsp-cli: add _config_dump method, use configuration with aggregation, add required vars check
• (G) include rudimentary artifact dependency information for config-dump-json: fixes/refactor/cleanup
• (G) artifact-rootfs.sh: include rudimentary artifact dependency information for config-dump-json
• (G) artifact-armbian-(config/plymouth-theme/zsh).sh: include rudimentary artifact dependency information for config-dump-json
• (G) artifact-fake-ubuntu-advantage-tools.sh: include rudimentary artifact dependency information for config-dump-json
• (G) include rudimentary artifact dependency information for config-dump-json
• (G) configdump/json-info-boards: revamp, all-JSON now; use_board=yes skip_kernel=no for config; refactor & use new Python bash-declare-to-JSON utility
  • use new capture'd vars scheme
  • so ./compile.sh BOARD=xxx BRANCH=yyyy config-dump-json | jq . now works and is consistent/newline tolerant
  • introduce internal skip_host_config=yes for prep_conf_main_minimal_ni() to skip calling check_basic_host()
• (G) capture: set globals CAPTURED_VARS_NAMES and CAPTURED_VARS_ARRAY (instead of CAPTURED_VARS_ARRAY that was space-delimited); filter and sort last-minute
• (G) oras: add --insecure to further retries if we get a failure on first try, to workaround GitHub's March/2023 mess with certificates
• (G) runners: introduce internal skip_error_info=yes for run_host_command_logged()
  • doesn't show nor clear vars if_error_find_files_sdcard and if_error_detail_message
  • used by chroot_sdcard_apt_get() which uses run_host_command_logged() multiple times, and the first would clear the important/last one
• (G) fix: declare some variables that were leaking into global namespace for no reason
  • especially for VAR in ... and VAR leaks sans the declare
  • rename fragment_manager_cleanup_file to extension_manager_cleanup_file
• (G) bat-cat: introduce tooling support for bat (colorized/smart cat), including DEBIAN/xxx syntaxes; cached in Docker image
• (G) oci-oras: fix, don't test for ORAS_BIN before it is actually defined
• (G) apt-install: install_deb_chroot(): useful logging, when trying to install invalid stuff
