Thomas Weißschuh c8578539de kbuild: add script and target to generate pacman package ...

pacman is the package manager used by Arch Linux and its derivates.
Creating native packages from the kernel tree has multiple advantages:

* The package triggers the correct hooks for initramfs generation and
  bootloader configuration
* Uninstallation is complete and also invokes the relevant hooks
* New UAPI headers can be installed without any manual bookkeeping

The PKGBUILD file is a modified version of the one used for the
downstream Arch Linux "linux" package.
Extra steps that should not be necessary for a development kernel have
been removed and an UAPI header package has been added.
