improvements for metapackages

Christian Heuselrequested to merge
gromit/namcap:master into master

I had a look at base-devel's PKGBUILD today and wondered why it has a license=() array even if there is no content to license.
Someone on IRC said that it could be because the author wanted to suppress namcap warnings.

So I tried to fix that and created a check whether a given package is a metapackage and exclude missing licenses and unneeded deps from there.

I think there could be two main ToDos:

  • testing to avoid regressions
  • Coding style (will do in the end)

Looking forward to your feedback! 🎉
