When investigating a regression that lives in OpenIPC/firmware (or its
referenced packages like hisilicon-opensdk) but only manifests in a
builder build, you previously had to either roll firmware master back
or fork builder.sh manually. Adds a clean way:
gh workflow run build-one.yml -f platform=hi3516ev200_fpv \
-f firmware_ref=<sha-or-tag-or-branch>
The workflow exports OPENIPC_FW_REV as env, which builder.sh now
honours: when set, it does a full clone (not --depth=1) and checks
out the requested ref before invoking the firmware build. When unset,
behaviour is unchanged (shallow clone of master HEAD).
Immediate motivation: bisect the +180 KB rootfs growth in
hi3516ev200_fpv between 2026-05-08 (5016 KB) and 2026-05-24 (5196 KB,
76 KB over partition limit). Per kaeru
'hi3516ev200-ev300-fpv-rootfs-size-overflow-2026-05-24'. Suspect is
recent hisilicon-opensdk bumps that brought in source-built sensor
drivers for ev200; bisect across firmware commits varying
HISILICON_OPENSDK_VERSION will pinpoint which bump pushed us past
the 5120 KB limit.
Generally useful long after this specific incident:
- Reproducing user-reported regressions at a specific firmware tag.
- Locking builds to a known-good firmware revision when builder is
ahead of firmware.
- Future cross-repo bisects of any kind.

PR-Bld-C in the mirror of OpenIPC/firmware's nightly redesign.
Mirrors OpenIPC/firmware#2116. Adds an optional `commit` workflow_-
dispatch input to `build-one.yml` so:
- `gh workflow run build-one.yml -f platform=X -f commit=<sha>`
builds the given SHA from `git bisect run`.
- Output goes to `nightly-bisect-<short>` (prerelease) tag, distinct
from the dated `nightly-YYYYMMDD-<short>` namespace produced by
PR-Bld-A's master.yml. The manifest aggregator's regex only
indexes `^nightly-[0-9]{8}-[0-9a-f]{7}$`, so one-off bisect
rebuilds never enter manifest.{json,flat}.
- Without `commit`, falls back to building HEAD and tags as
`nightly-bisect-<short>-<UTC ts>` so repeated dispatches of the
same HEAD don't collide.
Also:
- Retry budget around `bash builder.sh` matching master.yml +
OpenIPC/firmware#2129's hardening.
- BUILD_ID / BUILD_SHA / BUILD_PLATFORM env at the Build firmware
step level (forward-compat with Phase 3 of the mirror plan).
- Drops dead `env: TAG_NAME: latest` at workflow level.
- Release body carries sha/short/platform/one_off=true for the
aggregator's downstream consumers to easily distinguish bisect
builds from dated nightlies.

The Build workflow's matrix-of-everything makes it slow and noisy to
test a single device profile. Mirrors the build-one workflow already
present in OpenIPC/firmware.
Takes a full platform name (e.g. hi3518ev200_lite_switcam-hs303-v2)
and runs only that build via builder.sh.
