This is based on the decision The NetBSD Foundation made in 2008 to
do so, which was already applied to src.
This change has been applied to code which is likely not in other
repositories.

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.
This is a provisional kludge to work around PR pkg/47838. Sorry for
taking far too long to find a workaround that doesn't break various
other stuff too -- this duration of time was ridiculous, and it was
entirely my fault.
We can get rid of this kludge when we start using `env -i' in the
build phase or when we replace TARGET_ARCH by TARGET_MACHINE_PLATFORM
(and replace the make-internal variable MACHINE_ARCH by
MACHINE_PLATFORM -- that is part of what makes the logic in
pkgformat/pkg/depends.mk and bsd.prefs.mk so fragile). However,
although I intend to do both of these things, they were deemed too
likely to cause too much fallout just before the freeze, so they'll
wait until after the freeze.
