Generalize the packge building scripts to be able to be run on more than
one 'head' node, rather than just pointyhat itself.

Constants are factored out into installation-specific files known as
portbuild/conf/server.conf and portbuild/conf/client.conf.  There is
only one server.conf file.  Individual <arch> directories may have
their own client.conf files, or may symlink to ../conf/client.conf.

Note: the major change is to require branch as an argument.  The
silly code that expected the branch to be passed via a symlinked
command such as 'dopackages.7' is removed.

Several bugs are fixed and improvements are made:

 - make the separation of 'date' and 'datestamp' clearer.
 - make handling of error conditions (e.g. for a first-time run
   where 'build create' has been forgotten) more obvious.

Feature safe:	yes
