Log message:
libnbcompat: Rework in-place linking.

Prevent libtool from detecting -lnbcompat in the command line arguments
then declaring it as a dependency in the resulting libtool archive.

Filter -lnbcompat from all of the environment when compiling an
in-place copy to prevent circular dependencies.

Drop LIBNBCOMPAT_USE_PIC, I can't find anywhere this is used in the
tree, it's incomplete (needs handling in mk/) and complicates things
needlessly.

What still needs to be done is figure out why certain packages don't
seem to properly link with libnbcompat when USE_FEATURES is used - it's
a long-term problem, might be related to some newer build systems not
using ${LIBS}.

Bootstrap tested on Darwin and NetBSD.

Log message:
libnbcompat: When linking with an "in-place" copy of libnbcompat in each
piece of software that needs to pull functions from it, prevent libtool
from detecting -lnbcompat in the command line arguments then declaring
it as a dependency in the resulting libtool archive.

Log message:
libnbcompat: Update to 20230904.

Pull in changes from revision 1.13 of NetBSD sha2.c from 14 years ago to
fix type punning issues seen with newer GCCs.

Fixes "pkg_admin digest" on SmartOS with GCC 12, where the output was
completely wrong, causing bulk builds to rebuild every package every time
now that USE_PKG_ADMIN_DIGEST=yes is the default.
