lbmk is much more likely to crash now, in error conditions,
which is a boon for further auditing.

also: in "fetch", remove the downloaded program
if fail() was called.

this would also be done for gnulib, when downloading
grub, but done in such a way that gnulib goes first.

where calls to err write "ERROR" in the string, they
no longer say "ERROR" because the "err" function itself
now does that automatically.

also: listmodes/listoptions (in "lbmk") now reports an
error if no scripts and/or directories are found.

also: where a warning is given, but not an error, i've
gone through in some places and redirected the output
to stderr, not stdout

as part of error checks: running anything as root, except
for the "./build dependencies *" commands, is no longer
permitted and lbmk will throw an error

mrc downloads: debugfs output no longer redirected to /dev/null,
and stderr no longer redirected to stdout. everything is verbose.

certain non-error states are also more verbose. for example,
patch_rom in blobs/inject will now state when injection succeeds

certain actual errors(bugs) were fixed:
for example, build/release/roms now correctly prepares the blobs
hash files for a given target, containing only the files and
checksums in the list. Previously, a printf message was included.
Now, with this new code: blobutil/inject rightly verifies hashes.

doing all of this in one giant patch is cleaner
than 100 patches changing each file. even this is yet part
of a much larger audit going on in the Libreboot project.

there were stragglers left over from the last audit,
and these stragglers still exist even after all the
major re-factoring as of late

the new style is: bsd-like coding style and error
handling. verbose yet simple error handling. we use
an "err" function in a way reminiscent of most C
programs that you see in openbsd base (err.h)

this style is very clean, resulting in readable code

in update/blobs/download, i saw instances where
appdir was being deleted with rm -r, but the more
appropriate command would rm -Rf. this is now fixed.

other than that, i've mostly just simplified a bunch
of if statements and consolidated some duplicated
logic (e.g. if/else block for dependencies in
build_dependencies() of update/blobs/download

one or two functions and/or variables have been
renamed, for greater clarity in the code, also
removed a few messages that were redundant

used printf instead of echo, in a few places, also
fixed up the indentation in a few places

new commands are thus,

build grub payloads:
./build grub payload
(formerly ./build payload grub)

build grub utils:
./build grub utils
(formerly ./build module grub)

The scripts is build/module/ will mostly be
deleted. I say mostly, because some of them
are being moved instead.

The deleted ones will be ones that basically
just run "make" in the target directory. They
will be unified, in a follow-up patch.
