there were stragglers left over from the last audit,
and these stragglers still exist even after all the
major re-factoring as of late
the new style is: bsd-like coding style and error
handling. verbose yet simple error handling. we use
an "err" function in a way reminiscent of most C
programs that you see in openbsd base (err.h)
this style is very clean, resulting in readable code

this same change has been applied, selectively, to
certain return statements. the general rule is this:
the return statement should only be used to direct
logic within a script, where certain non-errors
states are used to skip certain actions; the exit
command should *never* be used to return non-zero,
except by err(). in so doing, we ensure easier
debugging of the build system
also: strip_rom_image in build/release/roms was
running "continue" when a rom file didn't exist,
despite not being a while/for loop. i make it
return (non-error condition) instead
it's ok for a script to exit 0, where appropriate,
but perhaps a function could also be written for it

in update/blobs/download, i saw instances where
appdir was being deleted with rm -r, but the more
appropriate command would rm -Rf. this is now fixed.
other than that, i've mostly just simplified a bunch
of if statements and consolidated some duplicated
logic (e.g. if/else block for dependencies in
build_dependencies() of update/blobs/download
one or two functions and/or variables have been
renamed, for greater clarity in the code, also
removed a few messages that were redundant
used printf instead of echo, in a few places, also
fixed up the indentation in a few places

new commands are thus,
build grub payloads:
./build grub payload
(formerly ./build payload grub)
build grub utils:
./build grub utils
(formerly ./build module grub)
The scripts is build/module/ will mostly be
deleted. I say mostly, because some of them
are being moved instead.
The deleted ones will be ones that basically
just run "make" in the target directory. They
will be unified, in a follow-up patch.
