The **forgefirm** repo is the base of the project: it controls the build,
the resulting firmware images land here, and all build/install docs live here.
It uses [**kas**](https://kas.readthedocs.io/) to manage Yocto layers and drive
the build, replacing the old Google `repo` + `default.xml` manifest and the

The build is only reproducible when recipe pins, layer branches, and the kas
