build: pin the dependencies that decide consensus, and check what we run
The two dependency clones were `git clone --depth 1 <url>` with no
revision, which resolves to whatever the default branch points at the
moment the build happens to run.
For RandomX that is the proof of work. Its master is not frozen -- v2.0
changed the algorithm in March -- so two builds of the same Bitflash
commit, made weeks apart, can hash the same header differently. That is
not a supply-chain worry, it is a chain split delivered as a build
artifact, with no version recorded anywhere to explain it afterwards. For
libsecp256k1 it is signature verification, the rule deciding who may
spend.
Both now fetch a full commit id, which is the only form here that
verifies what it got, since git resolves the object by its own hash. The
RandomX pin is the commit this tree has been building and syncing
against, so today's behaviour is unchanged; secp256k1 is pinned to the
v0.8.0 release commit.
appimagetool came from the "continuous" tag, which upstream moves in
place on every push, fetched over the network and executed unverified.
Pinned to a numbered release and checked by digest before it is allowed
to run.
It also ran from /tmp on a fixed name, guarded by `[ ! -x
/tmp/appimagetool ]` -- an executable already sitting there is taken as
the tool, so any local account could leave one and have it run as
whoever built. The AppDir had the same shape one step later, through
symlinks on the rm -rf. Both moved under the build tree, which the build
already owns, and cleaned by `make clean`.
