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 very large change, and incorporates the 4.8, 4.10, and 4.12 major
Xfce releases since 4.6.2, our previous pkgsrc release. For more information

This is based on a huge amount of work by the NetBSDfr team and Youri Mouton,
who takes over as MAINTAINER, and has been tested by Youri on a large number
of platforms prior to commit. A massive thanks to them. Any issues with the
import are mine alone as the committer-by-proxy.
