We introduce a new package structure for Coq:
- `coq-core`: Coq's OCaml tools code and plugins
- `coq-stdlib`: Coq's stdlib [.vo files]
- `coq`: meta-package that pulls `coq-{core,stdlib}`
This has several advantages, in particular it allows to install Coq
without the stdlib which is useful in several scenarios, it also open
the door towards a versioning of the stdlib at the package level.
The main user-visible change is that Coq's ML development files now
live in `$lib/coq-core`, for compatibility in the regular build we
install a symlink and support both setups for a while.
Note that plugin developers and even `coq_makefile` should actually
rely on `ocamlfind` to locate Coq's OCaml libs as to be more robust.
There is a transient state where we actually look for both
`$coqlib/plugins` and `$coqlib/../coq-core/plugins` as to support
the non-ocamlfind plus custom variables.
This will be much improved once #13617 is merged (which requires this
PR first), then, we will introduce a `coq.boot` library so finally
`coqdep`, `coqchk`, etc... can share the same path setup code.
IMHO the plan should work fine.
