Turing Pi

the -next image is containing some python and some more debugging tools, if you don't need it, just use the one without "-next"

included are (not complete)
 * python3 with GPIO and FastAPI
 * rpiboot for manually experiementing with CM4/5 rescue modes
 * rkdevtool for manipulation rk3588 devices from the BMC
 * evdev tools for input devices (buttons)
 * i2ctools for interacting with the switch or other i2c devices

Some not-yet documented usefull things: rescue mode

with the non "-next" images you can link/copy the sqfs file into /overlay/rescue.sqfs

If you do so: in a running system, you can use `BootToRam` command to boot into a rescue system that is entirely running from RAM, to fix SD Card/ext4/f2fs- or Flash issues.

This is not possible due to memory constraints with the `-next`images, those are simply to large for to be run from RAM.
