We expect all source file to lie in $startdir. However, using
"makepkg -p <buildscript>" can currently allows people to specify buildscripts
in other directories. This results in confusion about where other sources
should lie (in startdir or in the directory that the buildscript is in).
Explicitly disable using -p for files in other directories to avoid this issue.
Fixes FS#40293.

If validpgpkeys is set in the PKGBUILD, signature checking fails if
the fingerprint of the key used to create the signature is not listed
in the array.
The key's trust value is ignored.

Packaging outside of fakeroot can result in incorrect permissions for
package files. It has been years since fakeroot issues during packaging
were common, so it is safe to enforce fakeroot usage. If using fakeroot
is impossible for some reason, a two line wrapper script will suffice to
fool makepkg.

The days of fakeroot being error ridden are long gone, so there is no
valid reason to run makepkg as root.

1. Packagers who want to test the package() function, i.e. to check the content
of the pkg/ folder.
2. Developers who want to check how the packaged version of a program looks, in
other words how the pkg/ folder looks.
3. For users of systems with no port tree, makepkg can ease package creation.
However the resulting archive of the whole makepkg process is often useless.
For all situations, makepkg will usually be called several times. But no archive
(the final package) is needed in any cases. The archive creation ends up being a
waste of time and resource, especially for big applications and slow machines.
Since this option aborts the process prematurely, it behaves like the
-o,--nobuild option, i.e. any other option acting on later stages in the process
will be automatically discarded. For --noarchive, it means that in
$ makepkg --noarchive --install
the '--install' option does not do anything.

Forcing vim users to view files with a tabstop of 2 seems really
unnecessary when noet is set. I find it much easier to read code with
ts=4 and I dislike having to override the modeline by hand.

Add a "Usage" key to the repo section of the config which allows for the
tokens "Search", "Install", "Upgrade", "All", which correspond to values
in the alpm_db_usage_t enum. Users can specify "Usage" multiple times
for a given repo, or multiple flags per "Usage" line and they will be
OR'd together. If unspecified, the default is full usage of the repo.

When maintaining a custom repo, often it is undesirable to retain older
versions of packages. This patch adds the --remove option to remove the
current package file and it's signature from disk before adding the new
one to the database. Documentation is also updated. This is an optional
flag and default behaviour (leaving ondisk files alone) is not changed.

Adding this restriction means we can filter any FILENAME entry from
starting with a "/" or a ".". Use the term "dot" as it is more
computing relevant compared to "full stop" or "period" which vary
depending on English locale.
