arch: a self-hosted pacman repository, since the AUR is shut
AUR signups are closed while the AUR deals with supply chain attacks, so
the package is published from our own roof -- which is the better offer
anyway: a pacman repository serves built packages where the AUR hands
every user a rebuild. contrib/aur/ becomes contrib/arch/ (the .SRCINFO
goes; it is AUR metadata, regenerated in a minute when signups reopen),
and contrib/arch-repo builds the package and maintains the slosh.db /
slosh.files indexes in dist/arch/<carch>/, which rsyncs to
/opt/slosh/arch/ on the box. The README and the front page carry the
[slosh] stanza; SigLevel is spelled out because the packages are not
signed yet and pacman defaults to demanding it.
