Warn about too-generous wildcard dependencies, which may prove bogus (using
...
tk-* as example). Also fix no more accurate info regarding wildcard deps -
they are now retained even for binary packages.
Suggested by David Brownlee.

Some packages use bsd-style .mk files when building, and so any manual
...
pages that are installed will be gzip-compressed, if MANZ is set, or
not if MANZ is not set. If the package uses bsd-style .mk files, the
variable MANCOMPRESSED_IF_MANZ should be set to a value of "yes" in
the package Makefile. This replaces the previous method of specific
inclusion of bsd.prefs.mk, followed by a check for MANZ and
conditional assignment of MANCOMPRESSED.
Add appropriate documentation, and change all necessary ocurrences in
package Makefiles.

- description of all available options and variables is in packages(7)
- add note that part of the import/update process for a package is also noting it in doc/pkg-CHANGES
- add some warning comment in the "CPP defines" section - current no longer defines "unix" or "__unix__", so the proposed method is no longer reasonable. Someone who knows how to solve this cleanly should redo this section.
