Release packaging & scripting improvements.exim-4_89_RC3
* Make the .xz tarball variant too, and work harder on compressing our
files for distribution.
+ The .xz files have gained more positive feedback than any other part
of the 4.89 release.
* Drop usercodes from tarball
+ We shouldn't be embedding own-system-specifc ownership information
into software release tarballs. That's for local system backups,
not distribution.
* Script for the size/checksums
+ We include checksums in the mail; this gets the format fixed and not
including checksums-of-signatures, etc. I've also experimented with
including the size, so let's script that to be portably generated.
* Better tarball signing script
+ Automatically find the signing directory (if not already in it)
+ Sign all files, properly skipping existing .asc files
+ Find the signing key from git config, if available, else error out
(Nigel is not on the hook as the default victim now)
+ Show what we're doing as we do it
All changes made on the original `release_4_89` branch with
`RELEASE EXPERIMENT` subject tags.
