Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

This happens more than I'd like to admit.
I have a PinePhone Pro, and I'm trying to figure out a reasonable way to get more than one half of ten minutes of battery life out of it, while still receiving notifications. I figure the best route to go will be to create a service that holds ports open, while the CPU is completely asleep, and either run it on the modem's processor or, as an possibility for the PinePhone Pro, but not the original Pinephone, run it on the m0 core used for power management.

Booting Modern Intel CPUs
Arm v7 was a Wild West, but with v8, Arm tried to standardize a lot. The Arm Trusted Firmware is the reference boot firmware implementation for v8+ CPUs: https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware.
I'd think most of the referece documents can be discovered from that code base.
Relatedly, from the perspective of hands-on programming, the System Programmer's guide is the manual to start with.

“Rust is safe” is not some kind of absolute guarantee of code safety
I assure you that there is no lack of skill; that is just what happens over the course of ten years in a 300,000 line code-base and multiple hundreds of contributors: https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware/blob/master/Makefile

The PocketReform is a made-in-Berlin Linux handheld
The ARM Trusted Firmware is what typically runs in the secure world, and it is indeed open source: https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware
ROM code generally speaking is not open source, but has been dumped on occasion.

Will we ever get any coreboot / libreboot support or any PSP source code releases??
The reference Trustzone implementation for ARM is open source https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware , so I really can't think of some reason the ARM license would have to do with it.

SMP support for aarch64
SMP support (at least as far as CPU suspend and hotplug goes) is usually handled by TrustZone firmware on aarch64, not by the kernel (see PSCI). If you write your own OS on a bare-metal platform you can of course do what you want, but if you're looking for existing sources that's where you'd have to look. https://github.com/ARM-software/arm-trusted-firmware is a common reference implementation that supports a bunch of platforms, but many others (e.g. all Samsung and Qualcomm phones) also use their own proprietary stuff which is not publicly available.

“Rust is safe” is not some kind of absolute guarantee of code safety
For reference, the fix for https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2021-45720 was as simple as this commit: https://github.com/jeromefroe/lru-rs/commit/ea64c8f932a45434cbc71d3843d28af7c1819864.

How Safe Is Zig?
You didn't seem to click the commit the guy linked with the rust code https://github.com/jeromefroe/lru-rs/pull/121/commits/416a2d...
It has nothing to do with opting out. Zig, Rust and no language saves you when you write incorrect unsafe code. My original point is disqualifying c tools is misleading and everything suffers from incorrect unsafe code
What are some alternatives?
c2rust - Migrate C code to Rust
zorrow - Borrowchecker in Zig
