    Bookworm enabled the fstrim.timer by default, so stop providing the…
    
    alternative implementation in btrfsmaintenance, because btrfs is
    already too confusing for users.

    Make further clarity and style enhancements to README.Debian.

commit 5f68c936b777b53bf2f3487c7135a41883b502f2
Author: Nicholas D Steeves <sten@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Jul 22 20:57:53 2025 -0400

    Do not start balance, defrag, or scrub without AC power (mains)
    
    Perfect is the enemy of the good, and our ZFS and btrfsd packages have
    set a precedent.  Meanwhile, average laptops will not be able to
    repair any corruption, because they are typically single-disk systems.
    On these systems, the benefit of running a scrub is to chose when to
    potentially detect an unrecoverable corruption.  Furthermore, running
    a scrub on battery power risks a potential unclean shutdown, which is
    itself something which may precipitate data loss.

commit ba27d81dd3b040360bff848d0c9008dadda002c9
Author: Nicholas D Steeves <sten@debian.org>
Date:   Tue Jul 22 20:55:57 2025 -0400

    Update 0001-use-default-not-sysconfig.patch to decruft all components…
    
    to which upstream added support for /etc/default/btrfsmaintenance.
