The various scripts present in GNU Boot are very fragile, so it's a
good idea to have a pristine GNU Boot source code for making releases.
The issue is that 'git clean -dfx' doesn't remove existing git
repositories like coreboot/ grub/ etc, so we need additional code to
take care of that.

neox: wrote the commit message
Having an {arch,debian,fedora35,ubuntu2004,void} GNU Boot package
looked strange. Having a dependencies package instead makes more
sense.

The various build scripts are scattered around in multiple
places. This make it hard for contributors to understand what they
need to modify.
Most GNU Boot users are interested in running GNU/Linux or BSD
operating systems. And the way to install software on these
operating systems is through a package manager. So most users and
contributors already know the package manager abstraction.
So using that abstraction makes it easier to find where things are.
The scripts to install dependencies don't really fit the new structure
but for now we move them in to make sure that everything works
fine. This could be fixed later on and migrated to a single
dependencies packages by auto-detecting the distribution with
/etc/os-release.

this is cherry-picked from osbmk. the cherry-pick was
performed by i, leah rowe. this is adapted from shmalebx's
patch there, in osboot
specifically, these patches from osbmk are being imported:
327a39ef058d5385bf8c1a1b09bac8db6a51b016

The "dependencies" script are to be run as root. Without this fix, root will
create the version/versiondate file and then the rest of the build system will
break due to lack of root privilege.
this is forked from the "libre" branch in osboot, which is itself a libre,
deblobbed fork of osboot, a blobbed up fork of libreboot
libreboot needed to be purged clean. this is the new libreboot development
repository. the old one has been abandoned
