In issue https://github.com/termux/termux-packages/issues/6160 I have found
that community repo "its-pointless.github.io" specifies us as maintainer
for its packages. This is NOT TRUE and potentially misleads people using
these packages.
Now TERMUX_PKG_MAINTAINER will contain a default value which is neutral
and not specify maintainer. So all packages now have to override it to
the correct value.

should not accept arbitrary values for marking them "enabled". Instead
they should accept boolean values which makes them easier to handle and
also makes their meaning clear.
build-package.sh should make decision based on variable's value but not on
whether it is set or empty.

Instead of trying to read /proc/uptime, which is not allowed on Android,
we patch procps to use the sysinfo(2) syscall to figure out the uptime.
This should fix at least "ps -o etime".
Remove top both from busybox (which is broken on Android 8+), and
procps (which has issues on Android 8+) and use a system wrapper
in termux-tools instead.
Work around rpl_malloc being used, see
http://wiki.buici.com/xwiki/bin/view/Programing+C+and+C%2B%2B/Autoconf+and+RPL_MALLOC
for more information:
"The AC_FUNC_MALLOC macro makes sure that the malloc function when passed a zero
argument returns a valid memory block instead of a NULL pointer. This behaviour
conforms to the GNU C library. Normally, this is a reasonable test that autoconf
makes at build-time. In the case of cross-compilation, however, autoconf cannot
execute a program to verify proper behavior. It makes the conservative assumption
that the target library will produce non-conforming code.
Failure of this test causes autconf to replace malloc() calls with rpl_malloc()
calls. At link time, if there is no rpl_malloc() function, the linker will fail
with an error describing the missing symbol. The autoconf documentation recommends
adding this harmless code to the application to implement the function."
In Termux the rpl_malloc() usage is useless at best, and may also prevent building
some packages as well as giving runtime crashes for libgc-using packages or others
expecting to intercept malloc.
Previously some packages specified worked around this themselves, but the configure
arguments are now moved into build-package.sh.
This fixes Android 6 problems (so closes#26).
It also rebuilds termux-elf-cleaner when needed
and bumps some build revisions for packages
needed updates to remove DT_VERDEF and DT_VERDEFNUM.
