Magisk beta v14.1 roots the Pixels and survives OTA

Hot off his recent vacation, Magisk developer topjohnwu has released a beta version of Magisk (v14.1) that works with the Pixel phones. We've even installed it on one of our own Pixel XLs and, well, it works. This is probably one of the oldest requests users have had for Magisk, and now it's here. Best of all, it works without a custom recovery, and (allegedly) survives OTA.  The full changelog is below: Magisk v14.1 - [MagiskInit] Introduce a new init binary to support skip_initramfs devices (Pixel family) - [script] Fix typo in update-binary for x86 devices - [script] Fix stock boot image backup not moved to proper location - [script] Add functions to support A/B slot and skip_initramfs devices - [script] Detect Meizu boot blocks - [MagiskBoot] Add decompress zImage support - [MagiskBoot] Support extracting dtb appended to zImage block - [MagiskBoot] Support patching fstab within dtb - [Daemon/MagiskSU] Proper file based encryption support - [Daemon] Create core folders if not exist - [resetprop] Fix a bug which delete props won't remove persist props not in memory - [MagicMount] Remove usage of dummy folder, directly mount tmpfs and constuct file structure skeleton in place There was a lot of work topjohnwu had to do to get Magisk playing nice on Google's Pixels.
