Major layout change to the packages directory
Having one monolithic packages directory makes it hard to find things and is generally overwhelming. This commit splits it into several logical sections roughly based on function, recipes.txt gives more information about the classifications used. The opportunity is also used to switch from "packages" to "recipes" as used in OpenEmbedded as the term "packages" can be confusing to people and has many different meanings. Not all recipes have been classified yet, this is just a first pass at separating things out. Some packages are moved to meta-extras as they're no longer actively used or maintained.

++It consists of <EM>resource specifiers</EM> and <EM>escapes</EM>, interspersed
++with plain text.
++</P>
++<P>
++
++A backslash introduces an <EM>escape</EM>, which is translated
++into a single printing character upon output. The valid escapes are
++listed below. An invalid escape is output as a question mark followed
++by a backslash.

++
++<CODE>time</CODE> always prints a newline after printing the resource use
++information, so normally format strings do not end with a newline
++character (or `<SAMP>\n</SAMP>').
++</P>
++<P>
++
++A resource specifier consists of a percent sign followed by another
++character. An invalid resource specifier is output as a question mark
++followed by the invalid character. Use `<SAMP>%%</SAMP>' to output a literal
++percent sign.
++</P>
++<P>
++
++The resource specifiers, which are a superset of those recognized by the
++<CODE>tcsh</CODE> builtin <CODE>time</CODE> command, are listed below. Not all
++resources are measured by all versions of Unix, so some of the values
++might be reported as zero (see section <A HREF="time.html#SEC10">1.5 Accuracy</A>).

++Most information shown by <CODE>time</CODE> is derived from the <CODE>wait3</CODE>

++
++On systems that do not have a <CODE>wait3</CODE> call that returns status
