First cut at consolidated alpha releng.
Undoubtedly doesn't work yet, and still needs doc, but perhaps now ready for testing on build machine.

-Preliminary release engineering super-repository for building software
-to work with the Cryptech "Alpha" board.
-
-Primary task here is to build the PKCS #11 library and any needed
-support tools for whichever platforms we support. This will involve
-some packaging voodoo.
-
-Our first targets for this are Debian and Ubuntu, probably the Jessie
-and Xenial releases, respectively. If we really need to support
-multiple releases for each of these platforms, the packaging mechanics
-become more complicated, so we may just stop here for these platforms
-and assume we can fill any odd corners using the associated source
-package.
-
-Our next target for this is likely to be Mac OS X. This should be
-relatively straightforward so long as we only have to support Homebrew
-and we don't have to produce Homebrew "bottles" (binary packages). If
-we do need to bottle, we either need one or more Mac build machines or
-we need some kind of cross-compilation scheme (eg,
-https://github.com/tpoechtrager/osxcross).
-
-Supporting Homebrew at all requires a bit of extra voodoo on top of
-supporting Debian packaging, but none of it looks particularly
-difficult, and the Debian packaging will produce the source tarball we
-need for the Homebrew formula, so integrating production of these two
-kinds of packaging makes some sense.
-
-Windoze is not currently on the radar. In theory, MinGW would suffice
-as a cross compiler if and when we have to do something about it.
-
-This README is probably obsolete by the time you're reading it.
