Log message:
Remove graphics/Mesa

This metapackage isn't particularly useful for modern applications and is
potentially misleading.

Not everything needs glu for OpenGL support, and glut has increasingly
fell out of favour, to the extent of being dropped from Mesa. It's
mostly been replaced by e.g. SDL.

Hopefully I've narrowed down everything pulling in the metapackage
and switched everything to using only the individual libraries it needs.

Log message:
Mesa: it doesn't make sense for anything to be using this any more

everything should be including the individual packages instead.

mark it deprecated.

Log message:
Switch packages using GLUT to FreeGLUT.

Start building FreeGLUT with GLUT compatibility on.

- GLUT's maintainance state is much worse than FreeGLUT's, with no
  substanital commits since 2011.
- GLUT can no longer be consider a core component of Mesa or X11.
- Nobody except us seems to be using it...

Other vendors still shipping GLUT:
- GoboLinux, T2 SDE, PLD Linux

Revbump packages using GLUT or freeglut by default.

Partial fixes for cross-compilation.

- Python is a tool, not build, dependency.
- Incomplete workaround for mesa's own tools.
