makepkg: add optional package function
This patch allows us to split the building and packaging stages of
a PKGBUILD and minimize fakeroot usage. This can be done with less
code duplication (run_build and run_package look quite similiar) but
the run_package function will be where the package splitting logic
is implemented in the future.
