[PATCH v2 0/2] Correct the model names and descriptions for Pine64 boards

This series corrects and, in a couple of cases, additionally simplifies
a bit the model names and the descriptions of a few Pine64 boards and
devices based on Allwinner SoCs, according to their official names used
in the Pine64 wiki and on the official Pine64 website. [1][2][3]

These corrections ensure consistency between the officially used Pine64
board names and the names and descriptions in the source code.  These
changes complete the correction of the model names and descriptions of
the Pine64 boards and devices, which was started earlier with the Pine64
boards and devices based on Rockchip SoCs. [4][5]

Changes to the model names may cause certain issues if some scripts misuse
/proc/device-tree/model to detect the board they're executed on.  Though,
the right way to detect a board is to use /proc/device-tree/compatible
instead, because its contents is part of the ABI.  Such scripts, if they
actually exist in the field, should be improved to use the right way to
detect the board model.

Changes in v2:
  - Introduced this cover letter, partially by absorbing the notes from
    the original versions of the individual patches
  - Collected a couple of tags, which should still apply after the v2
    changes described in the following bullet point
  - As pointed out by Icenowy [6] and Andre, [7] historical and factual
    accuracy trumps the naming consistency; after checking with Pine64,
    it was concluded not to perform any retroactive naming cleanups, but
    to preserve the history, so the v2 switches to the historically and
    factually accurate board names, and introduces a few additional naming
    corrections, for completeness
  - Adjusted the patch descriptions according to the v2 changes
