- Include package glances, ipv6calc, atop, usbtop, bashtop, python3-psutil, vnstat and iperf3
- Add package f3 in Clonezilla/DRBL/GParted live
- ocs-sr: make --rescue work for ocs-onthefly to call ocs-sr
- prep-ocsroot: add an option to fsck repository file system before mounting local one
- Better mechanism to find LIVE_MEDIA in function get_live_media_mnt_point of ocs-functions This allows persistence in the live-boot to work with Clonezilla live
- ocs-sr: Support customized auto-gen image name. Key name: productname, FQDN, UUID, MAC, year, date, time (case insensitive). It can be any combination, just make beginning with "autoname-". If key name is not any one of the above, it will be shown as itself. E.g., autoname-fox-year-date-time-uuid -> fox-2020-1227-2336-564d41fc-9d80-20ac-c844-bda6a392d4c6
- ocs-sr: support more time-related format for "autoname-": Four new key names: month, day, hour, minute (case insensitive), e.g., autoname-tiger-month-day-year-hour-minute -> tiger-12-31-2020-23-15. In addition, datefmt_* can be used to assign the format from "date" command. E.g., autoname-fox-datefmt_%Y%m%d -> fox-20210109 autoname-fox-datefmt_%Y-datefmt_%m%d -> fox-2021-0109
- Add support for scheme about samba_server with version assigned as: smb1, smb1.0, smb2, smb2.0, smb2.1, smb3, smb3.0, smb3.11, and smb3.1.1. in ocs-live-repository so that the cifs version can be assigned

- Add language setting (en_US) in grub.cfg
- Change the date-time format for auto*name as like my-2020-1220-0221-img, was my-2020-12-20-0221-img
- Show file system and partition size in the TUI when listing partitions in restoreparts
- Language file es_ES was updated
- Package ezio instead of ezio-static is used since it can depend on different versions of libtorrent. It was updated to version 1.1.11. An issue about uploading too early was fixed.
- Reduce ezio_cache_ratio from 0.7 to 0.5 in drbl-ocs.conf
- The devices to be deployed by BT mode will be run together. No more one device by another device.
- Add leecher mode (-l|--for-leecher) in ocs-btsrv
- As suggested by ottokang _at gmail com and https://lwn.net/Articles/244829/, noatime implies nodiratime. Therefore remove nodiratime in the option of mount command
- ocs-sr: destination disk can be assigned by serialno when restoring
- ocs-onthefly: source and destination device can be assigned by serialno
- The serial no of disk device is now in the short format, not the long one from udevadm
- When ocs-sr is in saving mode, the DEVICE name can also be assigned by: For disk: PTUUID or SERIALNO, e.g., PTUUID=03c8b280-47aa-4881-aca5-9b9c66fe28c7. If there are spaces in SERIALNO, replace every space by "_". For partition: UUID or PARTUUID, e.g., UUID=0b51ce79-7bc0-4111-8a40-839461a9b12f"

Fixed:
- Missing TUI when -rescue is used for partclone in device to device cloning
- The boot parameter from clonezilla live grub.cfg was wrongly parsed for using in lite server client
- Improve parse_cmdline_option to allow multiple "=" in a line
- Jfbterm was not used in i686 live due to wrong keyword to be grepped in ocs-lang-kbd-conf. This made no way to choose language for i686 version of Clonezilla live
- In interactive mode, ocs-onthefly and ocs-sr should wait for pressing enter before asking final action. It was not working for device to device cloning, recovery iso/zip creation, etc
