This allows us to be consistent through possible updates of default
settings used in distributions. Previous behaviour was uid/gid were
chosen automatically based on what uids/gids are already taken on the
system.
This will ensure we're checking out source code that is close to what we
have in binary packages.
While at it, remove the checkout directory when it's no longer needed.
This makes the build tree more organized, which is good for adding new
stuff. Now, it's useful for example for adding manual pages in man3/,
but it may be useful in the future for example for extending the build
system to run linters (e.g., clang-tidy(1), Clang analyzer, ...) on the
C source code.
Previously, the build tree was quite flat, and looked like this (after
`./configure && make`):
$ tree -I src build
build
├── Makefile
├── autoconf.data
├── autoconf.err
├── echo
├── libnxt.a
├── nxt_auto_config.h
├── nxt_version.h
├── unitd
└── unitd.8
1 directory, 9 files
And after this patch, it looks like this:
$ tree -I src build
build
├── Makefile
├── autoconf.data
├── autoconf.err
├── bin
│ └── echo
├── include
│ ├── nxt_auto_config.h
│ └── nxt_version.h
├── lib
│ ├── libnxt.a
│ └── unit
│ └── modules
├── sbin
│ └── unitd
├── share
│ └── man
│ └── man8
│ └── unitd.8
└── var
├── lib
│ └── unit
├── log
│ └── unit
└── run
└── unit
17 directories, 9 files
It also solves one issue introduced in
5a37171f73 ("Added default values for pathnames."). Before that
commit, it was possible to run unitd from the build system
(`./build/unitd`). Now, since it expects files in a very specific
location, that has been broken. By having a directory structure that
mirrors the installation, it's possible to trick it to believe it's
installed, and run it from there:
$ ./configure --prefix=./build
$ make
$ ./build/sbin/unitd
Fixes: 5a37171f73 ("Added default values for pathnames.")

In BSD systems, it's usually </var/db> or some other dir under </var>
that is not </var/lib>, so $statedir is a more generic name. See
hier(7).

pkg-config package is named differently on supported rpm-based systems:
- Amazon Linux 2 has pkgconfig
- Fedora has pkgconf-pkg-config
- RHEL 7 has pkgconfig
- RHEL 8 and 9 have pkgconfig-pkg-config
What they share in common is they all provide 'pkgconfig', which we can
use in the spec file so we don't have to specify it per-OS.
Some distros provide it in /bin/sed and others in both /bin/sed
and /usr/bin/sed. Use the more available one.
