Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

- Update from 5.1.0 to 5.1.1
- Update rootfile
- Changelog is quite long and detailed so the following are the high level descriptions
of the changes from the NEWS file in the source tarball. More details can be found in
the ChangeLog file in the source tarball.
Changes from 5.1.0 to 5.1.1
1. Infrastructure upgrades: Bison 3.8, Gettext 0.20.2, Automake 1.16.4,
and (will wonders never cease) Autoconf 2.71.
2. asort and asorti now allow FUNCTAB and SYMTAB as the first argument if a
second destination array is supplied. Similarly, using either array as
the second argument is now a fatal error. Additionally, using either
array as the destination for split(), match(), etc. also causes a
fatal error.
3. The new -I/--trace option prints a trace of the byte codes as they
are executed.
4. A number of subtle bugs relating to MPFR mode that caused differences
between regular operation and MPFR mode have been fixed.
5. The API now handles MPFR/GMP values slightly differently, requiring
different memory management for those values. See the manual for the
details if you have an extension using those values. As a result,
the minor version was incremented.
6. $0 and the fields are now cleared before starting a BEGINFILE rule.
7. The duplication of m4 and build-aux directories between the main
directory and the extension directory has been removed. This
simplifies the distribution.
8. The test suite has been improved, making it easier to run the entire
suite with -M. Use `GAWK_TEST_ARGS=-M make check' to do so.
9. Profiling and pretty-printing output has been modified slightly so
that functions are presented in a reasonable order with respect
to the namespaces that contain them.
10. Several example programs in the manual have been updated to their
modern POSIX equivalents.
11. A number of examples in doc/gawkinet.texi have been updated for
current times. Thanks to Juergen Kahrs for the work.
12. Handling of Infinity and NaN values has been improved.
13. There has been a general tightening up of the use of const and
of types.
14. The "no effect" lint warnings have been fixed up and now behave
more sanely.
15. The manual has been updated with much more information about what is
and is not a bug, and the changes in the gawk mailing lists.
16. The behavior of strongly-typed regexp constants when passed as the
third argument to sub() or gsub() has been clarified in the code and
in the manual.
17. Similar to item #4 above, division by zero is now fatal in MPFR
mode, as it is in regular mode.
18. There have been numerous minor code cleanups and bug fixes. See the
ChangeLog for details.

Most of these files still used old dates and/or domain names for contact
mail addresses. This is now replaced by an up-to-date copyright line.
Just some housekeeping... :-)

This will allow us to run multiple builds on the same
system at the same time (or at least have them on disk).
