the treebreaker ☺

overhaul the fetch'n'checksum system to be more bsd-like
• make fetch, make checksum supported
• future expansion possibilities already prepared:

– more distfiles than just one
– check sizes of downloaded files (size matters!!!!!111)
– more hashes than just MD5
– recursive fetch/checksum targets
– PERMIT_{SOURCES,DISTFILES}=Yes/«reason» – licence issues

• download.pl dies

quirks:
• GNU make only has a poor excuse for a .for loop
• some things (esp. toolchain and target/linux) now have

a ${WRKDIR} where they didn't have it before

• ${WRKDIR}/.checksum_done – no comment… it was necessary

because otherwise everything will get rebuilt every time
(did I mention that GNU make sucks?)

• I had troubles tracking the dependency problems down

because GNU make, unlike BSD make, doesn't have good debugging

• DISTFILES -> FULLDISTFILES
• DL_DIR -> DISTDIR
• PKG_SOURCE -> DISTFILES
• PKG_SOURCE_URL -> MASTER_SITES
• no @SF and @GNU any more, use BSD network.template syntax

(feel free to add more master sites)

• GNU make doesn't really strip whitespaces from variables…

(did I mention how much better BSD make is?)

• echo 'LOCAL_DISTFILES=/path/to/distfiles' >>${TOPDIR}/prefs.mk

will save the need to download 'em, Closes: #102

• MASTER_SITES now *must* have the trailing slashes (there may be

a few that don't and a few with double ones, please fix them)

I've tested that a normal build (unchanged .config from the default) works
on GNU/Linux. There's definitively room for improvement, but most of that
will come with the NFO system only. Fixes appreciated.
