<message>Implement a new API endpoint for cancelling ongoing cloud-init builds, allowing users to request a build cancellation via the dashboard. Update the dashboard UI to include a cancel button that appears during the build process, enhancing user experience by providing control over long-running operations. Modify the build script to check for cancellation requests, ensuring that builds can be stopped gracefully. This feature improves usability and responsiveness in the cloud-init image building workflow.
reTerminal DM4 eMMC provisioning
Automatically deploy or backup the CM4 eMMC when the reTerminal is connected in USB boot mode or when it boots over the network. Uses cloud-init for first-boot configuration.

Quick start
- Read docs/EMMC-PROVISIONING-GUIDE.md for setup and usage.
- Proxmox: Use scripts/deploy-to-proxmox.sh to deploy to a Proxmox host; see docs/PROXMOX-LXC-DEPLOYMENT.md.
- Manual host: Copy scripts from
host/to the host and install the udev rule (see the guide). - Put golden.img in
/var/lib/cm4-provisioning/(or your configured path). When a device is detected (USB or network), the dashboard asks Backup or Deploy.
