Seems like some issues to do with bytecode compilation have been fixed
at HEAD. closer-mop compiles again and an ironclad failure with the
next quicklisp/channel bump is avoided.
In this change pathname handling in ECL also changed somehow, causing it
to make the :directory part absolute by prefixing it with a slash which
made ld.bfd unhappy while linking an output path that began with a
double slash. This problem can be avoided by constructing the path as
ANSI Common Lisp intended. The truename on the out path is important to
make it recognize that it is indeed a directory.

Adds ECL as a second supported implementation, specifically a statically
linked ECL. This is interesting because we can create statically linked
binaries, but has a few drawbacks which doesn't make it generally
useful:
* Loading things is very slow: The statically linked ECL only has byte
compilation available, so when we do load things or use the REPL it is
significantly worse than with e. g. SBCL.
* We can't load shared objects via the FFI since ECL's dffi is not
available when linked statically. This means that as it stands, we
can't build a statically linked //web/panettone for example.
Since ECL is quite slow anyways, I think these drawbacks are worth it
since the biggest reason for using ECL would be to get a statically
linked binary. If we change our minds, it shouldn't be too hard to
provide ecl-static and ecl-dynamic as separate implementations.
ECL is LGPL and some libraries it uses as part of its runtime are as
well. I've outlined in the ecl-static overlay why this should be of no
concern in the context of depot even though we are statically linking.
Currently everything is building except projects that are using cffi to
load shared libaries which have gotten an appropriate
`badImplementations` entry. To get the rest building the following
changes were made:
* Anywhere a dependency on UIOP is expressed as `bundled "uiop"` we now
use `bundled "asdf"` for all implementations except SBCL. From my
testing, SBCL seems to be the only implementation to support using
`(require 'uiop)` to only load the UIOP package. Where both a
dependency on ASDF and UIOP exists, we just delete the UIOP one.
`(require 'asdf)` always causes UIOP to be available.
* Where appropriate only conditionally compile SBCL-specific code and
if any build the corresponding files for ECL.
* //lisp/klatre: Use the standard condition parse-error for all
implementations except SBCL in try-parse-integer.
* //3p/lisp/ironclad: disable SBCL assembly optimization hack for all
other platforms as it may interfere with compilation.
* //3p/lisp/trivial-mimes: prevent call to asdf function by substituting
it out of the source since it always errors out in ECL and we hardcode
the correct path elsewhere anyways.
As it stands ECL still suffers from a very weird problem which happens
when compiling postmodern and moptilities:
