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.

When the executable checking was refactored into libmakepkg, it carried
with it, usage of $E_* error codes, which need to be declared from
error.sh but are only available when the parent program already sources
error.sh; additionally, message.sh was only loaded in a parent
library, but not where it was needed, and option.sh was often loaded
when it wasn't needed at all.
util.sh, meanwhile, has always depended on message.sh functions.

Elsewhere, we return 1 if a library dropin fails, and when running
functions in a loop, we use `|| ret=1` to preserve scope. This ensures
the return value of the function remains useful in isolation. Do the
same thing here as well.
Drop trivial function which wraps a dropin that also uses $ret, since
it's no longer needed.

This opens the door for third parties who provide extensions to
libmakepkg to supply scripts that confirm the presence of their
dependant executables.
