obache 39ed3fa443 Import cpmtools version 2.5.
Based on PR 27778 by David Griffith.
I update from 2.4 to 2.5, adapt to recent pkgsrc tree and pkglint clean.

This package allows to access CP/M file systems similar to the
well-known mtools package, which accesses MSDOS file systems. I use it
for file exchange with a Z80-PC simulator, but it works on floppy
devices as well. Currently it contains:

* cpmls - list sorted directory with output similar to ls, DIR, P2DOS
        DIR and CP/M3 DIR[FULL]
* cpmcp - copy files from and to CP/M file systems
* cpmrm - erase files from CP/M file systems
* cpmchmod - change file permissions
* cpmchattr - change file attributes
* mkfs.cpm - make a CP/M file system
* fsck.cpm - check and repair a CP/M file system (only simple errors
        can be repaired so far). Some images of broken file systems
        are provided for testing.
* fsed.cpm - view CP/M file system
* manual pages for everything including the CP/M file system format
