Move the core comp unit repo to a separate folder #2940

I just noticed, that this branch is based on my reloc-fix branch and thus contains these changes as well. So please do not merge this branch prior to PR#2939. |

I wonder if we could get away with switching the short name from |
|
I'm not too familiar with the ins and outs of the repo stuff, but my guess would be the rename would probably work out without any fallout. @nine Do you have an opinion? |

Only notable thing I can think of is: rakudo/tools/build/install-core-dist.p6 Lines 23 to 26 in 2566db7

@ugexe, @niner I tried to also rename the repo from |
Before it resided directly in <Perl6 home>. That was kind of messy as other folders also reside in <Perl6 home> and are thus mixed in between the folders of the CompUnit repo. The stale files of previous installs will not be automatically removed, but will do no harm either. See rakudo#2919 (comment) for the discussion surrounding this change.

I'm merging this now to at least have a little time before the release. If someone has objections, just revert. |
As proposed in this issue comment, move the core compilation unit repository previously installed directly into
<Perl6 home>/to<Perl6 home>/core. This should continue to work as before, but does not attempt to remove any old stale comp unit repository a previous install might have put there. So some cruft might be left behind.
