Hello, Friend!

This is a repost of my previous patches that I'd like to see applied
soon. I've also fixed the commit messages.

Short description:

1. fixes Portage not to replace non-installed 'dev-foo/bar:=' deps with
plain 'dev-foo/bar'. This affects e.g. || () dependencies where
the remaining branches may have referred to non-installed packages. By
keeping the := operator in those dependencies, @changed-deps is able to
correctly match old and new depstring.

2. adds a @changed-deps set to rebuild packages for which dependencies
have changed (ebuild compared to vdb).

3. adds a repoman check for dependencies that refer to packages that
have more than one slot yet do not specify a slot explicitly or use
a proper slot operator. This is meant to help fixing mistakes like:

  dev-libs/openssl -> dev-libs/openssl:0
    [:0.9.8 comes with no headers]
