Key changes from PKGBUILD

• license is now a license expression that can be used to better describe software licenses.
• pkgdesc allows for long descriptions.
• maintainer is now a variable.
• repology array exists.
• {make,check,}depends have more complex version specifiers
• ppa array exists.
• backup array can have r: specifier to remove stale config files on install/upgrade. Those denoted with r: cannot be in the final deb.
• incompatible array exists.
• All postscripts are moved from install=file to main file.

Common code in both Pacscripts and PACBUILDs

• maintainer, we don't need to do much to convert if we end up using a variable instead of array.
• repology, nothing to be changed.
• ppa, nothing to be changed.
• backup, nothing to be changed.
• incompatible, add extra : to align with PACBUILD style.
• optdepends, nothing to be changed.
• depends, nothing to be changed.
• build_depends -> makedepends.
