sys-boot/netboot: bump to EAPI=7.
Changes to ebuild: * bumped from EAPI=2 to EAPI=7. * license changed to GPL-2+, since GPL-2 is wrong here. * added amd64 arch, as it compiles and works fine on this arch. * Patched several makefiles, to install into the correct pathes. * Overhauled whole build to make it more clean. * Install more docs, to make it complete. * Dropped unnecessary move/delete of directories/files. * Added better description to ebuild and metadata.xml. * Taking ownership.

proj/gentoo: Initial commit
This commit represents a new era for Gentoo: Storing the gentoo-x86 tree in Git, as converted from CVS. This commit is the start of the NEW history. Any historical data is intended to be grafted onto this point. Creation process: 1. Take final CVS checkout snapshot 2. Remove ALL ChangeLog* files 3. Transform all Manifests to thin 4. Remove empty Manifests 5. Convert all stale $Header$/$Id$ CVS keywords to non-expanded Git $Id$ 5.1. Do not touch files with -kb/-ko keyword flags. Signed-off-by: Robin H.
