Preliminary information regarding merge window closure for Core Update 168

Hello development folks,

being in charge of mastering Core Update 168, I would like to close the merge window for
it on Monday, May 9th. At the moment, we have a heap of updated packages in it, an updated
linux-firmware, as well as contributions and bug fixes to the web interface. Thank you all!

Yet to come is Stefan's work on the IPS, which he refers to as "IPSv4"; I did not have time
to go through that, but will hopefully do so today or on Wednesday. Also, Core Update 168
comes with a Suricata update, which hopefully will finally cure things like #12812.

Going through Patchwork, I seek review of the following patches, as they are either beyond
my Perl/CUPS/... skills, or were handed in by myself:
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/20220428142416.23557-1-daniel.weismueller(a)ipfire.org/
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/20220425191245.1493-1-hofmann(a)leo-andres.de/
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/43e66e1b-b231-8869-4348-8172d820d7a5(a)ipfire.org/
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/2a19b137-55c7-ecb4-6161-8e87dc1a9a6b(a)ipfire.org/
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/9039a2e6-fcc4-e6d1-00b0-9ed018592611(a)ipfire.org/
- https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/patch/20220412103336.59296-1-adolf.belka(a)ipfire.org/
  (@Michael: You told me to update HAproxy to the latest 2.4.x version, which I did. Are you fine
   with the non-LTS 2.5.x branch as well?)

So, please keep your contributions coming. As always, feel free to drop me a line in case
of questions, comments, or criticism.

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller

Yes I am, as long as it is supported. HAProxy has never introduced any breaking changes for me, so I am happy.
