Update package re: VCS package guidelines.

- Add a pkgver() function.
- Actually fetch this via git; necessary to get pkgver to work
- set the checksums to SKIP
- Remove no-op build() function. IIRC this was originally a workaround
  to deal with makepkg not being able to handle pkgbuilds without a
  build(), though obviously that has changed.
