OpenWrt 21.02.1 First service release

Happy to report sysupgrade of c2600 from 19.07.8 => 21.02.1 (keeping settings) OK.
Great shout out :scream_cat: to all involved!

Only a few minor issues, some already discussed in other posts, namely:

  • Due to the network interface changes brought on with 21.02.x, I had to change all my scripts that contained: uci get network.wan.ifname to uci get network.wan.device

  • menu bar (LuCI) is aligned to the left, fix to centre align: opkg upgrade luci-theme-bootstrap

  • Openvpn (LuCI), when trying to edit an uploaded openvpn config file, getting error 'Insufficient permissions to read UCI configuration' fix: Insufficient permissions to read UCI configuration

  • System Load Average seems to report a higher figure compared to 19.07.8

  • 21.02.1 uses more space, I'm only left with 1.1MB now, compared with 2.8mb with 19.0x , I'll need to see where I can trim some packages!
