we really only need it there, because the context is
for release archives. normal use of the git repository
doesn't matter in the context of deletions, because that
will not be distributed. only the result of ./mk release
will be distributed.
the builds produced will not change as a result of this,
for people using the normal git repository, because the
files in question are never used anyway, in our configs.
this is being done to make working on local repos easier.

this is the mkdir call that createsn the directory where
a cached git repository is moved to, during creation.

more specifically, re-write it so that it can be called with fx_
this means that the single-tree check for nuke.list can be made
much simpler

This way, we can use x_ which will then print the command
that failed, if we need to debug future errors.

I overlooked this in a previous patch. It doesn't really
matter, since we're operating on a file anyway, but it's
not correct.
Files should have rm -f on them, not rm -Rf, for deletion.

We already do what the old code does in setcfg, by
virtue of the fact that the st variable is later
checked, after loading this config conditionally,
where the st variable is otherwise blank.
We can avoid the unnecessary work after loading
the config, by returning if the config is absent.

We are calling xbmkget in the same way, whether it's
a subfile or subrepo.
Rename these variables to subcurl and subgit, so that we
can call xbmkget unconditionally.

they were always re-downloading every time.
i've basically re-written most of xbmkget.
there was some erroneous conditions under which
it wrongly deleted the cached file, resulting in
it being downloaded again.

it now handles more than just git, and i forsee
it handling even more in the future, e.g. rsync,
ftp, bittorrent.
