The attribute is intended for simplifying package building. The
package's install path will be used for the package's .self package
symlink, allowing installation to a temporary directory when building
the package.
* The version string pattern is now:
<major>[.<minor>[.<micro>]][-<pre>][-<release>]
* Introduce B_HPKG_ATTRIBUTE_ID_PACKAGE_VERSION_PRE_RELEASE package
attribute.
* Add "preRelease" field to BPackageVersionData.
* Add "preRelease" property to BPackageVersion and packagefs's Version.
* Adjust package reader and writer code accordingly.
handling:
* package attributes are now compatible with the low level attribute
handling of other HPKG attributes (such that 'package dump' now shows
package attributes, too)
* dropped type names from hpkg format, the attributes were identified
by IDs already and this simplifies the code considerably. Type names
are now handled in BLowLevelPackageHandler only.
* instead of rolling their own mechanism, high-level package attributes
handling is now implemented via a corresonding set of
AttributeHandler-subclasses
* adjusted package writer to only write package attributes that are
needed (empty ones are left out)

* fleshed out RepositoryWriterImpl
* renamed BRepositoryHeader to BRepositoryInfo (in accordance with
BPackageInfo)
* adjusted BRepositoryInfo to be able to parse itself from a
driver_settings file
* added package_repo binary (only 'create' works as of yet)

to create a package that refers to a license that is not a system
license or contained in the package
* added package-info flags (currently only approve_license and
system_package)
* adjusted package-reader/writer and pkgman accordingly

* added kernel-compatible datatypes for reading package info attribute
values (PackageInfoAttributeValue.h) - these will be used at a later
stage by the package-fs to transport those attributes to userland
when asked to do so (by ioctl)
* implemented parsing of package info attributes in PackageReaderImpl
* added support for compressed package attribute section to
PackageReaderImpl
* completed the writing of package info attributes in PackageWriterImpl
and fixed a couple of bugs exposed by parsing
* adjusted 'package list' to show the package info attributes as they
are found
