Introduce PKGGNUDIR as a way to control gnu prefix.
By default pkgsrc uses LOCABASE/gnu as a prefix for packages to install native versions of GNU tools, which are them symbolically linked back to the 'g' versions of the files in LOCALBASE, and users can then add LOCALBASE/gnu/bin to PATH to pick up those tools. On systems where the GNU environment is desired, PKGGNUDIR now allows users to install the non-'g' files directly into LOCALBASE, making them the default without having to alter PATH, whilst retaining the 'g' files in order to ensure dependencies and tool paths remain the same.
