with --mtime, files added to the archive can be set
to a static date (in this case, the unix epoch)
the one used here is derived from git commit dates,
and it is static; if not being handled in lbmk.git,
the versiondate file never changes
this is the first patch in a series of patches designed
to bring about reproducible builds in libreboot
a solution will need to be found, for non-GNU tar
implementations, because they did not have an
equivalent option according to their manpages.
for example, BSD tar implementations.
perhaps i could systematically go around changing
file dates, on each file, as a fallback behaviour?

pass this argument: -m src
by doing this, only the src tarball will be made

this way, the src tarball is guaranteed to be clean.
the downside is that lbmk itself does not currently
handle crossgcc downloads, and there may be some
stragglers such as third party modules automatically
downloaded by certain codebases that libreboot uses.
this will have to be audited later (and it will be).

coreboot closely matches upstream, whose current release
is version 1.2 from 2018, and coreboot has not changed it
in any meaningful way.
the upstream did add patches since, but they are documentation
patches only.
this means: we do not need to use the upstream version

The logic has been re-written, where source archives are
concerned. This clones the current repository, and starts
a new build from scratch. A custom release directory is
possible, by passing -d
This eliminates a step during build-testing, saving hours
of time, because it builds the release archive *inside* the
release archive, with git files removed, thus replicating
the same setup that the user would have.
This also makes everything a bit more consistent, because
it's guaranteed that a release archive will always have
the same files; previously, the release build script would
only copy what was already built, without building anything.
Now, this script builds everything itself.
The script also builds serprog images, not just coreboot.
Usage:
./update project release
If -d is not passed, release/ is used inside lbmk.
Otherwise, you could do:
./update project release -d /path/to/directory
If the directory exists, this script will exit (error).
Other minor fixes: build/fw/coreboot: make version in
coreboot-version (file) not contain hyphens, to work
around a quirk in coreboot's build system when not building
on regular libreboot releases. this quirk only appears
when lbmk is not being compiled under git.
The other main benefit of this change is that the new
script will probably require a lot less maintenance.
