fixes for prep feisty host
added some new apps in prep feisty host (e.g. screen, python3)
cast_identify_spell is a cool script for identifying metadata on files, but identify app is actually broken on my current ubuntu (Ubuntu 22.04 (code-name jammy)).
path_splitter is just a nice reformatter for the PATH variable that shows each component on a separate line. cheapo script.

more changes to support a FEISTY_MEOW_PERSONAL_HOME variable
this acts in place of $HOME for any custom purposes that we refer
to $HOME for, when there's a choice in the matter. we can't change
things about the system, like ssh looking for configs in $HOME/.ssh
and we don't want to. this is just for assets related to or used by
the user that they want dealt with properly under their specific home directory.
if it's not already set, then we default to $HOME for the value.

updated to use FEISTY_MEOW_SCAN_REPOS variable instead
of FEISTY_MEOW_APPS_DIR variable, which is annoyingly conflicted.
the scan repos is currently single value, but we need to support
multi value in the future.

updated to add new FEISTY_MEOW_APPS_DIR
this addresses a peculiarity on some machines, where we don't want the
apps dir to just be $HOME/apps. pre-setting the variable before loading
feisty meow should allow flexibility about where the apps are actually
located.

exception granted for execute bit on movie scripts
these are needed in cgi-bin, and allowing additional execute permissions
seems a lot better than making temporary copies elsewhere just to get
cgi-bin able to execute. contents were already readable by world, but
now they are executable by world.

harmonizing shebang for scripts
this starts using the 'env' tool to locate bash for us, so we don't have
hard-coded paths. the hard-coding of those always bugged me, and this
is a better solution, assuming that the environment has 'bash' resolve
to the right version of bash. that is an externality that we cannot
enforce or guarantee, so it's appropriate to give up on trying to do so.

simplify per compiler rules and variables
most of the specialized bits, like wxwidgets and curl, were the same for
each compiler, so these have been abstracted out to common area. the
individual compiler sections are now a lot tighter or maybe almost
non-existent.

checking in the recent efforts at optimizing clam
moved many variables that were constructed during every make out into
the environment. cleaned up convoluted shell commands to make more
efficient. removed old compiler tags that were hiding chunks of code.
still need to get the create guid app online; was not working due to
errors in comdef.h from cygwin (could not find new.h, some kind of
snafu in the cygwin headers).

updates for less shelly behavior
took out a few things that were previously generated everytime a build was performed, in fact, they were done per each makefile, potentially consuming a huge amount of windoze's spoons. windoze is just NOT good at running lots of little programs, and prefers the big blobby ones. so we're trying to cut down on the shelling out done by feisty builds by offloading them to the regeneration process.

plugging in new approach for testing
this doesn't make the code read any files at runtime; instead the virtual root for unix on win32 is put in a low-level header that's stored in the binaries dir along with the code.
