As a result, `make installers' produces an installer with no further
configuration on a non-Windows platform, even without `git'.

This change makes a `PKGS=...' setting sticky for an in-place build via
`make', `make in-place', `make pkg-links', etc.

Also, improve connection between installers and farm-configuration
entries, and improve configuration of installer name versus
target-install directory.

The suffix is intended for OS variants, such as "precise" for a Linux
variant that is build with Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin).

Left one dependency broken: "drracket" currently depends on "htdp" for
a test. That needs to be fixed by removing the dependency (moving the
test to "htdp?), instead of changing the declared dependencies.

A package's "info.rkt" file should define `collection' as a
string to name a single-collection package's collection, or as
the symbol 'multi to declare the package as multi-collection.
If `collection' is 'same-as-pkg, then the package name is used
as the collection name.
The default for `collection' is 'multi for now, but the intent
is to change the default to 'same-as-pkg after a conversion
period. Also, support for a `single-collection' definition remains
in place, but it wil be removed.

The `farm' target run `server', but after the server starts, also
builds clients (via `ssh') as specified in a configuration file.
A client can be a VirtualBox virtual machine, in which case
the client machine can be started and stopped automatically.
Most of the work is in `distro-build/drive-clients' (in the
"distro-build" package), and that's where the configuration-file
format and client-machine requirements are documented.

The "racket" directory contains a pared-back version of the
repository, roughly.
The "pkgs" directory everything else in the repository, but
organized into packages.

Note that this requires a running Finder. Note also that the process
involves attaching the created DMG which means that it might be
problematic with a machine that might have a volume by the same name
already attached (since the applescript uses the volume name, which is
not required to be unique).

I've looked for a while, and it seems that there is no easy way to do
this, not even in bash, and worse with /bin/sh. So this is kind of
resorting to a simple parsing of the input, and using `eval' if it
starts with a tilde. Note the hack of not doing that when there is a
space, otherwise the `eval' thing will silently ignore it.
This hack means that it's easy to get into a mess if quotes are used
after a tilde, but that was already the case with the use of `eval' to
handle environment variables. It's not a real security issue, however,
since we're talking about a user who can just run any command anyway.
Also including a test file for the expansion functionality. If anyone
wants to improve this code, making the tests pass would reveal the
tricky issues.
[FWIW, I've asked on the #bash channel, and the only serious suggestion
was getting the paths as command-line arguments. This will, however,
defeat the point of being newbie friendly...]
Closes PR 12893.

use it to improve some installer texts.
(Also update comment about required macro definitions.)
original commit: d69a45210cd67009a54ee5e47d922af23049b872
It's now simpler, shorter, and better. Some of the text is revised,
accepts environment variables when asked for the path, some additional
fixes in misc places.
