Significantly reduces build time and dependencies. doc option is
enabled by default so there's no change without explicit
configuration.

Splitting this into a separate doc package is left as an exercise for
the reader.

XXX: nios2-gcc3 loops endlessly during build, before and after change,
so untested.
XXX: nios2-gcc does not build on -current, in the same way before
and after the change, so untested.

Target Specific Changes
IA-32/x86-64
GCC now supports the Intel CPU named Skylake with AVX-512 extensions
through -march=skylake-avx512. The switch enables the following ISA
extensions: AVX-512F, AVX512VL, AVX-512CD, AVX-512BW, AVX-512DQ.
The find-prefix infrastructure was required in a pkgviews world where
packages installed from pkgsrc could have different installation
prefixes, and this was a way for a dependency prefix to be determined.
Now that pkgviews has been removed there is no longer any need for the
overhead of this infrastructure. Instead we use BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg
for dependencies pulled in via buildlink, or LOCALBASE/PREFIX where the
dependency is coming from pkgsrc.
Provides a reasonable performance win due to the reduction of `pkg_info
-qp` calls, some of which were redundant anyway as they were duplicating
the same information provided by BUILDLINK_PREFIX.pkg.
Existing SHA1 digests verified, all found to be the same on the
machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). Existing SHA1
digests retained for now as an audit trail.
