Emacs Lisp ports framework: Overhaul

This overhaul introduces four key changes to the elisp ports framework:

1. Remove support for packaged byte-compiled elisp.

   The primary motivation is to remove a large number of flavor-specific
   packages and to simplify the ports tree.  As an example, supporting
   byte-compiled elisp for devel/tablist required six packages, one for
   each flavor of editors/emacs and editors/emacs-devel.  With over 100
   elisp ports and requests for new Emacs flavors, this was
   unmanageable.

2. Install configuration to integrate with Emacs's native compilation
   machinery, allowing elisp from ports to be compiled into the standard
