In commit 882e707e40 we changed message
output to go to stdout by default, unless it was an error. The plain()
function doesn't *look* like an error function, but in practice it was
-- it's used to continue multiline messages, and all in-tree uses were
for warning/error.
This is a problem both because we're sending output to the wrong place,
and because in some cases, we were performing error logging from a
function which would otherwise return a value to be captured in a
variable using command substution.
Fix this and straighten out the API by providing two functions: one for
continuing msg output, and one which wraps this by sending output to
stderr, for continuing error output.
Change all callers to use the second function.
In the spirit of making libmakepkg more useful as a library, and,
critically, *using* that library for additional pacman scripts, we
should include all of output_format.sh and term_colors.sh directly in
libmakepkg and hopefully stop having to embed additional copies in e.g.
repo-add via m4 macros.

This behavior is confusing, since it means absolutely everything goes to
stderr and makepkg itself is a quiet program that produces no expected
output???
The only situation where messages should go to stderr rather than
stdout, is with --geninteg which is meant to return the checksums on
stdout (but we don't want to totally get rid of status messages when
redirecting the results elsewhere, or, worse, redirect status messages
to a PKGBUILD). For this specific case, redirect message output to
stderr in the --geninteg callers directly.
Implements FS#17173

In order for the scripts to be used in testsuites, it is easiest to generate
all of them so they are found in the build directory (which may be different
to the source directory).
