systemd increases the dependency on the host kernel,
which breaks builds with rhel 8

This series add native patches in the systemd tools
to make it work.

v2:
 - re-add tag verification in SRC_URI
v3:
 - rebase on top of Ross Burton meson patches. if not needed keep v2
 - re-tested
 See https://patchwork.yoctoproject.org/project/oe-core/patch/20260629141559.1305873-1-ross.burton@arm.com/
v4:
 - still on top of Meson patches from Ross
 - merge systemd-systemctl-native and systemd-hwdb-native into
   systemd-tools-native and update references
   (this will cause meta-oe postgresql to fail). I'm planning to send
   a patch to it once we merge this one.

Tested on rhel8.10 with testsuite systemd on qemux86-64

Daniel Turull (2):
  systemd: upgrade to 261
  systemd: add native hwdb generator via merged systemd-tools-native
