Latest Ubuntu Touch OS can run on PinePhone and PinePhone Pro

Thanks to Oren Klopfer for their work on getting Focal onto the PinePhone and PinePhone Pro. This is a quick list of what is and is not working so far from Oren and details on how to install on your phone.

Progress:

- PinePhone and PinePhone Pro are now both running Focal UT
- PinePhone booting process moved away from U-Boot/flash-kernel to Tow-Boot/extlinux for faster booting and to align with the rest of the Pine ecosystem
- Brought kernel up to 6.3 with AppArmor + Waydroid Patches
- Support for the Keyboard Case enabled
Known issues:

- no auto-rotate (high priority)
- reported unstable modem on PinePhone (high priority)
- no OTA updates* (high priority, but quite reliant on the rest being solid)
- no camera/flashlight (low, development still early on camera)
- no GPS (low, deps on modem and sensors mostly)
