I just looked up when we introduced the package() function and it was
more than three years ago...

I suggest we just remove support of PKGBUILDs without a package()
function.  This would make it easy to unify the single and split packaging.

Do we just do that straight away for pacman-4.1, or add a deprecation
notice whenever there is a build() function but no package()?
