I agree.

IMO there are only very few RYF-worthy ARM devices--and we should support
at least those, if we support any ARM devices at all.  That includes
providing images for those few (at least A20-EOMA68, A?0*Olinuxino*, and
Novena).

(Now that we use genimage in order to create guix images anyway, long term
we can also provide an importer and import essentially all ARM devices
from buildroot--but that can come later)
