Build / build (push) Successful in 48s
feat: stop the updater being launched at all
Closing the popup after the fact left it on screen for the 15-20 seconds
between the updater's version check and the Homebrew Channel running its
init.d hooks. That race cannot be won, so remove it.

/usr/sbin/update is launched on demand by ls-hubd via a manifest, and
ls-hubd.conf lists ManifestsVolatileDirectories under /var - writable,
persistent, and how webOS itself ships manifest updates. A manifest there
with the same id and a higher version replaces the read-only one, so drop
in a copy that keeps every role and permission file and only empties
serviceFiles. Nothing on the bus can start the updater after that: no
version check, no alert, nothing to dismiss. Callers get an immediate
"Service does not exist" rather than a hang, and deleting the file undoes it.

Verified on a CX (webOS 5, 04.60.65) across reboots: no update process,
/tmp/var/log/update.log never created, no alert. Previously that log was
55 kB with two server checks and an _gAlertWindowId per boot. Revert puts
the updater back on the bus.

The manifest, its D-Bus service file and the updater binary are all
discovered from ls-hubd.conf rather than hardcoded. The popup-closing
layer stays as a fallback for when this one is off.

Also tried and rejected, now documented in the README: update-related
settings, masking update.service (no writable unit directory), and
breaking its ping through /var/systemd/system/env/update.env - the ping
does fail, but something else on the bus activates the updater anyway.

/**
* LG Update Blocker - root service.
*
* Everything this service does is reversible and is applied in layers:
*
* 1. updater - stop /usr/sbin/update from ever being launched
* 2. hosts - point LG's firmware update servers at 127.0.0.1
* 3. dismiss - close the "software update available" alert at boot
* 4. purge - delete the firmware image the TV already staged
* 5. lock - bind-mount an empty read-only dir over the staging dir
* 6. settings - switch off the update-related com.webos.settingsservice keys
*
* / is read-only on webOS, and /tmp, /etc and the mount namespace are reset on
* every boot, so the layers that live there are re-applied by a boot hook
* script dropped into /var/lib/webosbrew/init.d (run by the Homebrew Channel
* startup script).
*
* Why the hosts block alone is not enough: /usr/sbin/update runs its version
* check against snu.lge.com roughly 20 seconds before the Homebrew Channel
* gets as far as running the hooks in init.d. On a CX that check therefore
* *succeeds* on every boot and the popup is already on screen by the time
* anything of ours runs - which is also why the Homebrew Channel's own "block
* system updates" toggle does not stop it, and why closing the popup after the
* fact leaves it visible for those 20 seconds.
*
* The updater layer removes the race instead of trying to win it. The updater
* is not a normal daemon: it is launched on demand by ls-hubd from a D-Bus
* service file, which ls-hubd finds through a manifest. ls-hubd.conf lists
* ManifestsVolatileDirectories under /var - writable, persistent, and how
* webOS itself ships manifest updates - and a manifest there with the same id
* and a higher version replaces the read-only one. Dropping in a copy whose
* serviceFiles list is empty leaves every role and permission file in place
* but removes the launch entry, so nothing on the bus can start the updater:
* no version check, no alert, nothing to dismiss. Callers get an immediate
* "Service does not exist" instead of hanging, and deleting the one file puts
* it all back.
*
* Things that do *not* work, all measured on a CX before settling on the
* above: automaticUpdate, support/softwareUpdateEnable, hotelMode/swUpdateEnable
* and the .UpdateIsInprogress flag change nothing; no systemd unit directory is
* writable, so update.service cannot be masked; breaking update.service's ping
* via its /var/systemd/system/env override does make that ping fail, but
* something else on the bus activates the updater anyway.
*
* Written in ES5 without dependencies - it runs on the TV's own node with the
* platform-provided webos-service module and nothing else.
