Make the bootonly CD smaller by discarding static libraries that are not
useful without a toolchain.

Do not install the rescue tools onto the install CD. Since it is read
only, they are very unlikely to be needed and take up a great deal of
space.

As requested by many people, with final prodding from Jason Hall, fix this
so that running make release causes make obj to be run before doing
anything. This fixes a bug wherein, when run for the first time, and
without -DNOSRC, make release would attempt to recursively tar up the src
directory including its own output and enter an infinite loop.

While here, make the cross-building stuff work a little more the way it
should if only one of TARGET/TARGET_ARCH is specified.

Improve the distributeworld target in Makefile.inc1 and update the release
infrastructure to use it. make distributeworld can now be used without
preparing its environment first and installs games into its distribution
using the regular make distribute logic instead of post-processing with
a script.

Also add two new targets, packageworld and packagekernel, that tar up the
results of distributeworld and distributekernel (also new), respectively.

Get powerpc64 install CDs a little closer: some powerpc things should be
used on powerpc64 as well (build scripts, for instance), and the MFS root
must be adjusted upward on powerpc64 as well.

This doesn't completely solve things: sysinstall stil needs some
persuasion to deal with a default kernel named GENERIC64.

Connect powerpc64 to the build. It is not presently part of make universe,
