When I switched all paths to use `` formatting, I didn't realize
substitution didn't work in these quote marks. Use ++ instead to ensure
attributes are substituted where appropriate.

These addditional attributes come from the git asciidoc.conf file. Also,
fix a place where we used {treename} without escaping the braces,
causing the generated manpage to be missing text.

Change the term 'packages' to 'targets' in the synopsis as well, since

The current behaviour, which is placing source packages in PKGDEST if
SRCPKGDEST is not set, is inconsistent with {SRC,PKG}DEST handling and
there is no real advantage in doing so.

This includes info on version comparison that is very similar to the stuff
in the pacman manpage, but also a few vercmp examples, the return values,
and other fun stuff.
Also update the version comparison stuff in the pacman manpage.

Instead, go the same route we have always taken with version-release in
libalpm and treat it all as one piece of information. Makepkg is the only
script that knows about epoch as a distinct value; from there on out we will
parse out the components as necessary.
This makes the code a lot simpler as far as epoch handling goes. The
downside here is that we are tossing some compatibility to the wind;
packages using force will have to be rebuilt with an incremented epoch to
keep their special status.

Add the "buildflags" option, which is useful in its negative form
for disabling CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS when building a package.
This is useful when determining of one of these flags is causing

A PKGBUILD can have an option check() function for running test suites
between the build() and package() stages. This function is run by
default but can be disabled globally in with "!check" in BUILDENV in
makepkg.conf. This setting can be controlled on an individual package
basis using makepkg's --check and --nocheck flags. Addition dependencies
needed for running the test suite can be specified in the checkdepends
array and are only checked when running the check() function.

When a -Sk or -Uk operation induced a removal of an existing local
package, --dbonly was not in effect and the files were all removed.
Fixing this behavior was already marked as TODO in database012 pactest
------------
TODO: I honestly think the above should NOT delete the original les, it
hould upgrade the DB entry without touching anything on the file stem.
E.g. this test should be the same as:
pacman -R --dbonly dummy && pacman -U --dbonly dummy.pkg.tar.gz

[Dan: small coding style touchup]

The three parts (help, manpage and code) are now organized in the same
way and much easier to compare :
- specific options
- install/upgrade options for -S and -U
- transaction options for -S -R and -U
- global options
After this re-organization, it was easy to update and sync the three
components together. Duplication is also avoided.
