Required for the case where a cross package is independent of it's
native package (e.g. libiconv) and the native pkg may not have been
built in the dep chain. Calling:
```
make pkg MXE_TARGETS=...
```
will then cause `make` to build the native pkg as well. (MXE_TARGETS
is still required otherwise it will be picked up from settings.mk)
- add metadata to distinguish virtual package types
- improve build order and status messages for empty packages
print pkg type or `disabled` instead of `no-build`
- add BUILD_DRY_RUN option and fixup make -t
- update build-matrix rule to identify virtual pkgs
LOOKUP_PKG_RULE is called many times and spends a lot of time searching
for rules when the default rule is the most common. This simply
avoids exhaustive searching since we can determine beforehand if there
are multiple rules.
Also drops some of the gmsl functions if favour of normal make
variables.
First commit adds sort/strip so print-deps-for-build-pkg output can be
easily compared.

There are various cases where a download succeeds but the checksum
is wrong:
- upstream re-releases tarball without new version
- sourceforge returns 200 with a text message about outage
- other strange glitches
In these cases, we currently fail and stop the build. This PR allows
for falling through the next URLs until it will eventually get to
the checksum-suffixed version.
This ensures builds are always (potentially) repeatable as the checksum
associated with the version is reachable. Next step would be to change
all the backups to use suffixed tarballs.
* change libssh2/apache/xiph URLs to canonical ones
* resubmit patch to remove unnecessary
--no-check-certificate option. The URLs
are non-HTTPS anyway
* blas: restore URL and point to versioned archive
It is needed to specify a path to custom wget binary without
removing the argument passed by WGET (--user-agent).
Also can be used to add --no-check-certificate back.
It is used in libotr (toolkit/Makefile.am) to define a list
of symlinks to the main man page. Search for MANLINKS reveals
that it is used in many other projects.

Regular downloads of packages are verified by checksums, so
--no-check-certificate doesn't compromise the build system,
but the checksums themselves are often updated with update-checksum-%
which in turn calls the regular package download mechanism, so there
is a possibility of downloading and sealing a poisoned file.
On the one hand, old systems may still rely on --no-check-certificate,
so it is not nice to completely disable it for regular downloads.
However keeping this option enabled for backup servers only is enough
to support such systems because of the fallback mechanism.
On the other hand, download from a backup doesn't make sense while
updating a package, because the package is definetely not in the backup yet.
So --no-check-certificate is now enabled only for backup servers
and backup servers are disabled while updating packages.

- move cmake configuration from mxe-conf to cmake-conf
- replace `echo` with templates for readability and maintenance
- allow packages to set other dep files
- set CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMPNNNN in wrapper since
`cmake_minimum_required` or `cmake_policy` can't be set in
toolchain (closes#971)
