pointless function. literally pointless. it is literally
the most pointless function ever written in the history
of functions. literally pointless in every possible way.

we don't pull anything from supermicro's site.
we did briefly, in an earlier port for that
one supermicro board.
don't maintain dead code. dead code has one purpose:
be deleted.

i've been careful to makely only use it on AND operations,
not onse that use OR. a lot of blocks are not condensed,
unlike previously when this design was used.
i removed the condensed design because it made the code
allegedly easier to read, but i found it harder to read
and found the code looked dirty. this change makes it
clean again, but i've done it in a way where the shorthand
conditional statements are easy to understand for most
people. this strikes a compromise; i would go further.

use the simpler logic recently introduced, generalised
but it only sets variables to empty. this is safer than
the previous design, and brings the same reduction in
sloccount overall since i wasn't doing anything other
than emptying variables anyway, when it was used before.
i didn't like the long list of variables inside files,
so this makes everything more readable.

This reverts commit 1b65e8914c4ad1e140b573fa6bc8feead14542ad.
NOTE: cleanup of xbmk_git_init was retained
this "cleanup" actually made the code harder to read.

this will make managing updates easier. which will
be soon, because i have a lot of patches.
no idea why i didn't add this before. normally, i just
copy a directory and git-fetch, then cherry-pick as
i please. this will make it trivial to just update
a revision and merge the patches. then i can just
intervene only when necessary, on a given src tree.

i added a fake -t option, which doesn't actually
read optarg, so that -t usage can just override
the normal template. mkhtemp isn't ready for
distros yet, but it's ready for lbmk.
i hacked the makefile to also copy the binary to
mktemp, and i set PATH in lbmk so that this binary
is used insttead of the one on your system.
that way, upstream projects use it.

it is currently only initialised inside case
conditions. this is fine on most shells, but
some of them can be a bit buggy here.

Surprisingly, SeaBIOS VGA output works (coreboot documentation says it
doesn't).
I'm using a static CMOS option table currently (like most other boards
supported in libreboot), but maybe it would be better to switch to the
CBFS file option table. The default option table enables
hyperthreading, overriding the compile-time setting.
I'm also using a ME/SPS image extracted from the official BIOS update
for this board. Unfortunately, https://www.supermicro.com/Bios/* is
excluded from crawlers in robots.txt so it's not in archive.org, so I
haven't been able to find a backup download URL. I also needed to set
the user-agent for fetching the update to "curl/8.6.0" because the
default user-agent override used by lbmk resulted in a 403 error.
deguard is not required (there's no bootguard on this board).
SPS does not implement CPU replacement detection which means that the
MRC cache does not work and RAM training needs to happen on every
boot. To avoid this it may be possible to run ME instead of SPS on
this board, but I tried both the ME image used on the OptiPlex 3050
Micro in libreboot and one from the ASRock C236 WSI and they both hung
at "[INFO ] POST: 0x92" (POSTCODE_FSP_MEMORY_INIT).
The memtest86+ build included with libreboot doesn't work with USB
keyboards and this board doesn't have a PS/2 port, which is annoying.

this is the true fix, replacing the fixes previously
reverted.
the problem with the old fix was that it was a hack,
and could result in the archived backup of a code repo
being the wrong one; the destination was the one for
the main repo, but what if we were cloning the backup?

Don't hardcode the cache directory, and don't store
remotes anymore. This change retains compatibility
in practice, with the older directory location, because
it's extremely unlikely that newly generated locations
would conflict with old ones.
With this new change, non-mirror git clone caches are
now done twice; one directory per remote, rather than
one directory with two remotes.
This is just inherently much more reliable.

Some repositories might use CR-LF line endings. This option
keeps Git from mangling patches when merging.
Repositories that don't do this, such as ALL repositories
currently used by xbmk, will be unaffected by this change.
This is being done in preparation for importing MrChromebox
edk2, as Intel's own edk2 repository on GitHub uses these.

Don't do one repository for all remotes. Do one *clone* per
remote.
This also means that users no longer download information twice,
in practice, because the backup repository will only be downloaded
if the main one didn't work.
Theoretically, this change is makes the process less efficient, but
in practise it's more reliable now.
We do now use --mirror on the git clone command for caches, but we
already did git pull --all before.
This just ensures that we absolutely have all local code.
NOTE:
The new code isn't used by default. To use it, you must do:
export XBMK_CACHE_MIRROR="y"
Otherwise, the old behaviour will continue to be used. This is
because the new code, while correct, puts more strain on upstream
servers (more code being downloaded), and can result in higher amounts
of disk space being used. The old behaviour wasn't broken, so we'll
also support that method.
TODO: perhaps also have a check in place to re-use both caches,
where available, regardless of XBMK_CACHE_MIRROR?

whatchanged is deprecated, and results in an error
on modern git versions, prompting you to include
the --i-still-use-this argument
what absolute, utter fucking arrogance. i use the
whatchanged feature every fucking day.

xbmkdir checks if a directory exists, before running
mkdir, and then still uses -p
i was testing xbmk on arch linux today, and noticed
that it errored out when a directory already exists.
i'm mitigating against buggy or differently behaving
mkdir implementations this way, by wrapping around
it.

this allows me to remove several eval calls, and the
errors relating to configs can now show exactly which
function they occured in, allowing for easier debugging.

i will eventually find a way to remove them all,
while still leaving the code completely clean.
in practise, i never use the contents of a file
for eval and the inputs are carefully checked.
however, over-use of eval is always a bad idea
in shell scripting.

we pull from upstream in cached git repos, before performing
an operation, and we run from the cache, but we do this every
time, even if a local revision exists, defeating the purpose
of the caching; on unreliable/intermittent internet connections,
this can cause a problem.
this also causes us problems with gnulib.git and grub.cfg, which
for *some reason* are really slow, even when doing a pull.
this change improves the efficiency of the build system, during
release builds, on a development repository where we already
have lots of caches.

the check for whether a file is present is unnecessary,
because the following cp command would also print the
file name if it doesn't exist, and exit with the same
