Vincent Stehlé 386cd2ebaf configs/arm_foundationv8: bump to Linux 6.12 and model 11.27
- Bump Linux kernel to v6.12.15, update the hash file and add the
  dependency on host-python3.
- Bump the FVP in the readme to version 11.27 build 19.

While at it:
- Rework the readme a bit with explicit build instructions, add a link
  to the model binaries running on AArch64 host and update the model
  command line to specify Arm v8.0 (as we are building for Cortex-A53).
- Turn on hashes verification and update .checkpackageignore
  accordingly.
- Add myself as co-developer for this defconfig.

Introduction
============
This is the support for the ARM Foundation v8 machine emulated by the
ARM software simulator of the AArch64 architecture.
Building
========
$ make arm_foundationv8_defconfig
$ make
Generated files under output/images:
* linux-system.axf: An image comprising the boot-wrapper-aarch64 minimal
firmware and bootloader, a Devicetree and the Linux kernel.
* rootfs.ext2: The OS root filesystem.
Running on the simulator
========================
Download the AArch64 software simulator from one of the following sources,
corresponding to your host computer:
- https://developer.arm.com/-/cdn-downloads/permalink/FVPs-Architecture/FM-11.27/Foundation_Platform_11.27_19_Linux64.tgz
- https://developer.arm.com/-/cdn-downloads/permalink/FVPs-Architecture/FM-11.27/Foundation_Platform_11.27_19_Linux64_armv8l.tgz
Finally, boot your system with:
${LOCATION_OF_FOUNDATIONV8_SIMULATOR}/models/Linux64_GCC-9.3/Foundation_Platform \
--arm-v8.0 \
--image output/images/linux-system.axf \
--block-device output/images/rootfs.ext2 \
--network=nat \
--cores 4
You can get network access from within the simulated environment
by requesting an IP address using DHCP (run the command 'udhcpc').
