PKG_DBDIR migration script



I just added a migration script, but it is really not tested well enough
for regular users to try out.  If you have a good backup and you run
"./_NetBSD-pkgdb check" and DO NOT invoke fix or migrate, it should
point out config differences from ideal.  Testing discussion for now is
on tech-pkg; I'll write here again when that crowd thinks it is ok.

The aim, and what I think it does, is enable pkgsrc users, in systems
with source or binary form, of various vintages, to either migrate or
not migrate, and have everything be ok, easily.  If you've been avoiding
this until 2020Q4 hits, that was good strategy.
