OpenWrt 22.03.0-rc4 fourth release candidate

[Hauke Mehrtens]

Hi,

The OpenWrt community is proud to announce the fourth release candidate 
of the upcoming OpenWrt 22.03 stable version series. It incorporates 
over 3500 commits since branching the previous OpenWrt 21.02 release and 
has been under development for about one year.

This is just a release candidate and not the final release yet.

Download firmware images directly from our download servers:
  * https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/22.03.0-rc4/

OpenWrt 22.03.0-rc2 was skipped because the URL of the release 
repository was not updated correctly.

OpenWrt 22.03.0-rc3 was skipped because of a severe problem in firewall4.
