[aur-general] abs tree checker

Hello,

stonecrest wrote a very useful script in my opinion a while ago :
http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch/2007-November/016238.html

However, it hasn't been updated since the svn move and the new abs.
It had a feature to fetch the abs tree itself, using csup directly. But 
anyway it is not required, abs can be used manually instead, so I just 
removed that part.
The second problem is the directory structure, which is now different 
for core/extra/etc, where the package dir are on the first level, 
compared to community which still has the old layout with an additional 
level of category. This breaks the following function :
def repo_from_path(path):
         return path.split("/")[-4]
It should be -4 for community and -3 for the rest.
Instead I just used 3, but it will only work on /var/abs/ tree (or any 
other structure with just 2 directory levels).
Anyway, this was just two quick hacks to get the script working again 
and see what were its results now. And it is still far from perfect :)

I think this script is something that packagers (of the official repos) 
should check regularly to ensure the quality of arch pkgbuilds and packages.

So here is the result I get currently :

$ ./check_archlinux.py --abs-tree=/var/abs
