lbmk is much more likely to crash now, in error conditions,
which is a boon for further auditing.
also: in "fetch", remove the downloaded program
if fail() was called.
this would also be done for gnulib, when downloading
grub, but done in such a way that gnulib goes first.
where calls to err write "ERROR" in the string, they
no longer say "ERROR" because the "err" function itself
now does that automatically.
also: listmodes/listoptions (in "lbmk") now reports an
error if no scripts and/or directories are found.
also: where a warning is given, but not an error, i've
gone through in some places and redirected the output
to stderr, not stdout
as part of error checks: running anything as root, except
for the "./build dependencies *" commands, is no longer
permitted and lbmk will throw an error
mrc downloads: debugfs output no longer redirected to /dev/null,
and stderr no longer redirected to stdout. everything is verbose.
certain non-error states are also more verbose. for example,
patch_rom in blobs/inject will now state when injection succeeds
certain actual errors(bugs) were fixed:
for example, build/release/roms now correctly prepares the blobs
hash files for a given target, containing only the files and
checksums in the list. Previously, a printf message was included.
Now, with this new code: blobutil/inject rightly verifies hashes.
doing all of this in one giant patch is cleaner
than 100 patches changing each file. even this is yet part
of a much larger audit going on in the Libreboot project.

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

they fundamentally perform the same action: copy
the .config file and run make, but build runs
make-all, while modify runs make-oldconfig or
make-menuconfig
merge this functionality together
also:
./handle config file
^ this is the new syntax, not:
./build defconfig for
for example:
./handle config file -b coreboot x200_8mb <-- build x200 rom
./handle config file -m coreboot x200_8mb <-- modify configs
./handle config file -u coreboot x200_8mb <-- make-oldconfig
./handle config file -u seabios
./handle config file -b u-boot
yes, 1 script and a sloccount reduction of 52. and the audit?
it continues.
