As was basically decided already a while ago, remove - in the simplest
possible way - the archiving of both qemu-s and mini-os from tarball
generation.

With this the subtree-force-update-all prereq isn't needed anymore in
the top level Makefile. That goal, including the respective ones
underneath tools/, then also are unreferenced and hence are being
dropped, too.

This is the simplistic approach; I'm sure this could now be done quite a
bit more efficiently. I also expect there's no longer a need to run
./configure ahead of the invocation of this script, but since I have no
idea why it was needed earlier on, I'm not removing that here from the
doc. IOW all cleanup that's probably better done separately, by someone
actually using all of that machinery.
---
v3: Drop subtree-force-update-all rules from underneath tools/.
v2: Drop subtree-force-update-all prereqs from ./Makefile.

Are any further adjustments needed?

Removing the archiving is one thing, and we have agreed that's a good
thing to do.

However, the makefile rules might be used manually.  While we have the
other trees cloned in Xen, I'd be wary about dropping the rules.

I guess the real question is how long we expect this interim state to last.

SeaBIOS and iPXE could disappear right away; there's nothing xen-local
there at all.

OVMF doesn't have anything xen-local, but there's a bit of complexity
setting up a Xen build IIRC.

Qemu-upstream won't be going anywhere until a) a release of Xen with
stabilised hypercalls, b) a release of Qemu after that

They're not mentioned in what the help: goal displays, which makes me
worry not overly much here. And Anthony had basically agreed to their
dropping, in part by asking me to drop more than I did initially.

For quite some more time, I suppose, ...

... seeing for how long we've been talking of stabilized hypercalls.
But how does it matter here for how much longer that situation will
remain? We want release tarballs of just xen.git, and that's what
this patch achieves (plus some cleanup of then-orphan logic). How
else would you propose we reach said goal?
