What does this MR do and why? ...

@matt @cas not obsolete at all:
- the rk3588 has double the ram (16gb vs 8), and if you were lucky and backed before the current crisis, 32gb
- rk3588 has a bit higher multi core cpu perf (just lower gpu perf)
- rk3588 can support up to 3 displays incl hdmi and has 7 pcie lanes (i think we use 6)
- rk3588 generally requires less binary firmware blobs for different parts of the chip

If @signalapp put up a crowd-sourced project fund to create a native app for linux (to support the many linux phone initiatives), I guarantee it would be funded quickly.
