It wasn't clear when I started at first, and I was still dragging baggage from initial implementations.
Now, I have documented how it all works. Note that I have documented families, even though I have no family implemented yet. This is mainly to show how I thought about it, and I know it's 99% definitive we implement them that way. We already know that some Pixel devices share family traits (e.g. taimen/walleye → wahoo).
Though, since I don't have a family to "fix" with this cleaned-up taxonomy, I didn't end up implementing families' implementation details.
There is one breaking change, the QEMU system type name changed. I think that all builds should have been using
build.vm
orbuild.default
so it shouldn't actually break things.
