Instead of updating mender directly to 4.x, which is far too large
of a change, update it to 3.5.3 which is the last of the GO version.

This not only provides security and bug fixes, but it makes the
transition to 4.x when someone picks that up much easier. This is based
off of previous work found here:

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/buildroot/patch/20231219172446.498409-6-adam.duskett@amarulasolutions.com/

With the addition of more tests, cleaning up documentation, and adding some
information in the migrating.adoc file.

  Patches 1-5 applied to master, thanks. There was a flake8 error in one of the 
patches, but otherwise it looked great!

  Thanks for continuing to work on mender integration in Buildroot! And as 
usual, sorry that it takes so long before things get applied.

  I haven't applied this one because you have sent the bump to 4.0.0.

  Regards,
  Arnout

  Oops, I got confused between mender and mender-artifact. I'll apply this one 
as well.

I would suggest applying the 3.5.3 bump to make the transition to 4.x or
5.x easier. But it's up to you.
