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.
Build depends are target packages that are needed at build-time for,
e.g., static libraries to link against, header files to include, &c.
Tool depends are native packages that are needed at build-time for,
e.g., compilers/linkers/&c. to run.

* Adding USE_TOOLS+=itools to a package Makefile will cause the
tool-directory versions of imake, makedepend, mkdirhier and xmkmf
to point to the ones from the devel/nbitools package.
This change will remove the need for nbitools/buildlink3.mk, which
currently does a bit of hackery to force the "right" imake tools to
be used by packages that need it.
* Adding USE_TOOLS+=intltool to a package Makefile will cause the
local versions of intltool-* inside ${WRKSRC} to be replaced by
copies from the textproc/intltool package. If "intltool" is not
specified as a tool, then we create "broken" intltool-* tools in
the tools directory to help highlight hidden dependencies on the
intltool package.
In addition, modify the tools framework so that if "perl" is not
specified as a tool, then we create a "broken" perl tool in the
tools directory for the same reason as for "intltool".
These two changes together will remove the need for
intltools/buildlink3.mk and should also catch all cases where the
sources' intltools may have been silently used because perl was
found on the system.
* Adding USE_TOOLS+=diff3, USE_TOOLS+=sdiff, or USE_TOOLS+=msgmerge
to a package Makefile will cause the corresponding tool to be pulled
into the tools directory.
These are convenience tools to help simplify dependencies for some
packages.
