epatch.eclass: Split epatch* logic from eutils

Move epatch and epatch_user (along with the descriptions for all their
variables) into a dedicated epatch.eclass. This function is very
complex, therefore it benefits from separate eclass and a dedicated
maintainer. Furthermore, it is mostly obsoleted by eapply* in EAPI 6.

The new eclass is implicitly inherited by eutils to preserve
compatibility. However, the inherit will be removed in EAPI 7,
and the ebuilds should switch to inheriting epatch directly or using
eapply*.

Thanks to Ulrich Müller for doing the necessary research.

+# @FUNCTION: epatch
+# @USAGE: [options] [patches] [dirs of patches]
+# @DESCRIPTION:
+# epatch is designed to greatly simplify the application of patches.  It can
+# process patch files directly, or directories of patches.  The patches may be
+# compressed (bzip/gzip/etc...) or plain text.  You generally need not specify
+# the -p option as epatch will automatically attempt -p0 to -p4 until things
+# apply successfully.
+#
+# If you do not specify any patches/dirs, then epatch will default to the
+# directory specified by EPATCH_SOURCE.
+#
+# Any options specified that start with a dash will be passed down to patch
+# for this specific invocation.  As soon as an arg w/out a dash is found, then
+# arg processing stops.
+#
+# When processing directories, epatch will apply all patches that match:
+# @CODE
+#	if ${EPATCH_FORCE} != "yes"
+#		??_${ARCH}_foo.${EPATCH_SUFFIX}
+#	else
+#		*.${EPATCH_SUFFIX}
+# @CODE
+# The leading ?? are typically numbers used to force consistent patch ordering.
+# The arch field is used to apply patches only for the host architecture with
+# the special value of "all" means apply for everyone.  Note that using values
+# other than "all" is highly discouraged -- you should apply patches all the
+# time and let architecture details be detected at configure/compile time.
+#
+# If EPATCH_SUFFIX is empty, then no period before it is implied when searching
+# for patches to apply.
+#
+# Refer to the other EPATCH_xxx variables for more customization of behavior.

-# @FUNCTION: epatch_user
-# @USAGE:
-# @DESCRIPTION:
-# Applies user-provided patches to the source tree. The patches are
-# taken from /etc/portage/patches/<CATEGORY>/<P-PR|P|PN>[:SLOT]/, where the first
-# of these three directories to exist will be the one to use, ignoring
-# any more general directories which might exist as well. They must end
-# in ".patch" to be applied.
-#
-# User patches are intended for quick testing of patches without ebuild
-# modifications, as well as for permanent customizations a user might
-# desire. Obviously, there can be no official support for arbitrarily
-# patched ebuilds. So whenever a build log in a bug report mentions that
-# user patches were applied, the user should be asked to reproduce the
-# problem without these.
-#
-# Not all ebuilds do call this function, so placing patches in the
-# stated directory might or might not work, depending on the package and
-# the eclasses it inherits and uses. It is safe to call the function
-# repeatedly, so it is always possible to add a call at the ebuild
-# level. The first call is the time when the patches will be
-# applied.
-#
-# Ideally, this function should be called after gentoo-specific patches
-# have been applied, so that their code can be modified as well, but
-# before calls to e.g. eautoreconf, as the user patches might affect
-# autotool input files as well.
