The global package database has moved from ~/.eta/package.conf.d/* to ~/.eta/[numeric-version]/package.conf.d/*.

cleaninstall.sh/Build.hs have some minor changes:
- You can pass - to specify that you want the default installation directory.
- All additional arguments are passed to Build.hs.
- A new flag --binaries is now supported that allows you to select the folder in which to store binary distributions of the boot libraries.

Etlas

Fixed #313 so that you can now download the package index from Hackage directly.
etlas bdist will create a binary distribution of the package for which you want to compile.
- If the package is base-4.8.2.0, then the binary package is base-4.8.2.0-bin.tar.gz and it will be placed in the dist folder.
etlas install --binaries-output-dir=[output-dir] will create binary distributions for the current package and all its dependencies and place them in [output-dir].
etlas install [package]-bin.tar.gz will install a binary distribution.
