This patch series basically consists in a fix for a possibly always

Please, take a careful look at "db: Force anchored ..." patch as this is
the most important patch of the series.

As this change ends up exposing a few more issues on osinfo-db, would be
really nice to have the osinfo-db patches merged altogether.

It's important to note that the osinfo-db patches themselves are **not**
going to break something in case they're used against a "non-patched"
libosinfo.

Also, the osinfo-db patches will have their commit message edited after
the libosinfo patches are pushed, so I can reference the proper commit
hash in their commit messages.

libosinfo:
Fabiano Fidêncio (2):
   tests: Expand the arch's parser for isodetect
   db: Force anchored patterns when matching regex

  osinfo/osinfo_db.c     | 2 +-
  tests/test-isodetect.c | 2 ++

   win10: Fix volume-id
   openbsd: Fix all publisher-ids


I guess technically this could constitute an API break: if a user has custom installed db entries and is depending on this behavior, they could see different results after an update. That said I doubt it's an issue in practice, and implying ANCHORED mode is the better long term option IMO, so:
