Environment variables "pollute" the build environment of packages and
can affect their output.
This change results in the removal of some files from packages that
were not meant to be packaged. It also removes the need for a
workaround in automake 1.10.3 to manually remove such files.
Variables are now saved in an .env file for each system and included
in scripts that need them using the dot operation.
Instead of using the pre-generated "bootstrap" script, execute the
relevant bootstrap operations manually. This doesn't actually change
the build output; the final package hash remains identical.
XBPS packages don't seem to have an option to manipulate file
permissions at package creation time.
So as a best effort, set the umask as soon as possible to ensure
file permissions are the same when running the bootstrap.
This is enough to allow reproducible XBPS packages when starting the
bootstrap with a umask different than 0022.
- Rename sources to distfiles for clarity.
- Per sys(a/c) distfiles to reduce rootfs.py processing and reduce RAM
usage in sysa.
- Canonicalise early kaem mes/tcc files to kaem script conventions.
- Cleanup unused setup in python.
Include:
- Not regenerated man pages.
- Automake tarball with bad time (and completely useless).
- Ordering of files within tarballs.
- Resetting timestamp various fixes.
- Older tars not properly overwriting files leading to many issues.
- Weird lack of reproducibility in libtool scripts paths to tools.

Utilising previously introduced DESTDIR support, everything is installed
to aformentioned DESTDIR.
Prior to the building of XBPS, we use gzip compressed tarballs as
packages. This requires a lot of strange hacks especially for old tar +
gzip (timestamps, etc causing reproducibility problems). Then we use
XBPS once built.
