kbuild: use git-archive for source package creation
Commit 5c3d1d0abb12 ("kbuild: add a tool to list files ignored by git")
added a new tool, scripts/list-gitignored. My intention was to create
source packages without cleaning the source tree, without relying on git.
Linus strongly objected to it, and suggested using 'git archive' instead.

This commit goes in that direction - Remove scripts/list-gitignored.c
and rewrites Makefiles and scripts to use 'git archive' for building
Debian and RPM source packages. It also makes 'make perf-tar*-src-pkg'
use 'git archive' again.
Going forward, building source packages is only possible in a git-managed
tree. Building binary packages does not require git.
