New package: hut-0.1.0

[kotajacob]

This is the official command line client for https://sourcehut.org/

It's basically the sourcehut equivalent to Github's hub or gh tools.
It's been in development for a while now, but they've put out their
first release earlier this month. I've been using it happily for a while
before this release.

Supercedes #36715

The thing causing the build to fail on arm is generating shell completions. The hut package doesn't ship with completion scripts; you're meant to run hut completion bash > hut.bash to generate the script. There are two issues with this:

1. It seems like you need to set build_helper=qemu and run hut with vtargetrun in the post install stage rather than trying to run hut itself normally. Otherwise I don't think crosscompiles will work.
2. On arm (or maybe just crossbuilds in general) it seems like the binary for hut is not located in $GOPATH/bin/hut after compiling, but instead in $GOPATH/bin/linux_arm64/hut.

Number 1 seems to work fine with vtargetrun, but for number 2 I'm not sure the best way to handle this. I was thinking I could do something like hutbin=$(find $GOPATH/bin -type f) to get the hut binary path, but that throws a weird error message:

=> hut-0.1.0_1: running pre-install hook: 98-fixup-gir-path ...
ln: /destdir/aarch64-linux-gnu/hut-0.1.0/usr/aarch64-linux-gnu/usr/..: cannot overwrite directory
=> ERROR: hut-0.1.0_1: pre-install_98-fixup-gir-path: 'ln -sf ".." "${PKGDESTDIR}/usr/${XBPS_CROSS_TRIPLET}/usr"' exited with 1

=> ERROR:   in run_step() at common/xbps-src/shutils/common.sh:43
=> ERROR:   in main() at common/xbps-src/libexec/xbps-src-doinstall.sh:37

Another option would be a switch statement for the arm architectures, but both of these seem hacky and not ideal. Maybe there's a simple environment variable that points to the binary you just installed or something? Will look into this further when I get some more time. Just wanted to update with the current progress.

Huh perhaps I made a typo when I tried earlier. Just made that change and force pushed. Seems to be working now!
