[ptxdist] [PATCH] Add 'libpipeline'

[ptxdist] [PATCH] Add 'libpipeline'

[Juergen Beisert]

From its README:
libpipeline is a C library for setting up and running pipelines of processes,
without needing to involve shell command-line parsing which is often
error-prone and insecure. This alleviates programmers of the need to
laboriously construct pipelines using lower-level primitives such as fork and
execve.

Don't do this. It's not worth much and the prossible errors are hard to
track.

the cache variables are only checked for --enable-..., right?
So always define them and use
--$(call ptx/endis, PTXCONF_LIBPIPELINE_SOCKETPAIR)-socketpair-pipe
