Research direction

Start by reviewing the bashbrew build functionality, especially the bashbrew build command, and compare it with the role now handled by meta-scripts. Determine which parts are unused and what deprecation or removal scope is intended. Done means the obsolete functionality is removed without affecting the remaining bashbrew parsing tool.

With meta-scripts now doing all our builds, there's a lot of functionality in bashbrew that no longer needs to exist.
