Pierre Neidhardt ce3fbcb18d makepkg: Add a --noarchive option to inhibit archive creation
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.
