abuild traces shared library dependencies for binaries in built
packages, and adds all of them to depends. This is needed for the cross
gcc builds, as otherwise it will not add the isl dependency (currently
isl25).
With the crossdirect compilation method we mount the cross-gcc from the
native chroot in the foreign arch chroot. Due to the missing dependency,
isl was not installed in the native chroot, and so when attempting to
use that native cross gcc from the foreign arch chroot, it would try to
load the foreign arch isl instead of the native one. Resulting in lots
of the following errors (and of course not a working gcc):
Error relocating /usr/lib/libisl.so.23: unsupported relocation type 1026
I had probably added '!tracedeps' because abuild complains about it
otherwise... but as noted in [1] these complaints are safe to ignore.
Keep !strip for now even though it's not in Alpine's APKBUILD. I've
tried to build without and the build fails with:
strip: Unable to recognise the format of the input file `./usr/aarch64-alpine-linux-musl/lib/libgcc_s.so.1'

Do not build the foreign arch libgcc. We are using the one provided by
Alpine's binary repository instead, and when building it here and trying
to use it, we actually run into a conflict.
I tried setting BOOTSTRAP="nolibc" first since there is already logic to
then disable libgcc in the APKBUILD. But that also disables g++ which we
do want to build, so we can't use this.

Remove it from depends, as the package has been removed in Alpine and
since quite some time we shouldn't have depended on it anyway.

Set CTARGET and CTARGET_ARCH on top of the generated APKBUILD and use
the existing code in the APKBUILD for build(), package(), makedepends,
subpackages. This is now possible, because the pmbootstrap parser for
APKBUILDs has been improved a lot since this was originally written and
because the Alpine APKBUILD does everything that was hacked in here,
like removing man, info directories and bfd-plugins if doing a cross
build.
This is now very similar to bootstrapping binutils for another
architecture via scripts/bootstrap.sh in aports.git.
Most importantly this sets --disable-gprofng, which fails to build
against musl and is the reason why our cross/binutils-* packages
generated from binutils 2.39.x didn't build anymore.

Newly generated binutils package has file conflicsts with
non-cross binutils.
ERROR: binutils-2.37-r3: trying to overwrite usr/lib/bfd-plugins/libdep.so
owned by binutils-aarch64-2.37-r3.
Fix the generator to produce package that does not include these plugins.
Packages like binutils-*, busybox-static-*, gcc-*, grub-efi-*, musl-*
are only needed for the native architecture during cross compilation.
Don't bother with trying to build them for other arches to save time and
to avoid getting stuck frequently at "armv7/binutils-aarch64" etc.
A few people like to use pmbootstrap on aarch64 hosts (e.g. PineBook
Pro), so let's make it available for aarch64 again when we can build
aarch64 packages natively in CI and bpo. (They do get stuck there right
now, because of qemu user emulation.)

Explicitly depend on mpc1. Our generated gcc aports use the !tracedeps
option, so we need to explicitly set the libraries it depends on.
This has mostly not been an issue, as we are installing our gcc
packages together with Alpine's gcc package, which causes the libraries
to get installed anyway.

APKBUILD should be indented with tabs not spaces.
This also resolves a bug which the replace_functions feature was always
trimming off the beginning of a line.
For example:
replace_functions = {"build": "return 0"}
would be formatted as "rn 0".
test_aportgen.py fails because some test data is missing.
Make the test pass by fixing the test data with the following changes:
- Update testdata pmaports/cross/*
- Don't git ignore test/testdata/aportgen directory
- Add testdata aports/main/* from upstream Alpine Linux aports
Patch files in pmaports/cross/binutils-armhf were removed, as they are
not needed to test the pmbootstrap code.
