pkgsrc specific changes:
* Remove the deprecated and broken libxml2 and libusb1 options.
* Fix the qt5 option.
* No longer depends on libretro-glsl-shaders, instead use the built-in
updater to install shaders. Fixes shader preset saving as non-root...
* I submitted a sun audio driver to upstream and they accepted it, so
NetBSD and (probably) SunOS will now default to "audioio" instead of "oss".
