This patch fixes various problems preventing this script from working. The job of this script is to collect Emacs' dependanicies and the (MSYS2/MinGW64) source archives for dependancies (including 2nd etc. order dependancies) into zip archives. GPL requires distributing such archives (along with Emacs' own sources) when distributing GPL binaries. Most principle of the changes is support for MSYS2 "w64" source archives in zst format; previously this script assumed all sources were available as tar.gz files. Additionaly several DLLs are added to list of required, including sqllite3 and tree-sitter. In general this is a maintaince fix to ensure others have access to the code used to create pretest (and, presumably release) version of Emacs 30. Additional changes are required to progmatically identify changes in Emacs' dependancies (e.g. after building a new Emacs binary for distribution). There is commented out code to this effect in the changes I've installed which did work, for a brief period in time; I suspect some changes in MSYS2 made it more difficult (or impossible?) to invoke the MSYS2 shell (under which this python script must run) from the MINGW64 (under which Emacs is built). I may resort to a powershell script as a way to orchistrate/invoke both MSYS2 and MING64 but I'm currently still messing with a Makefile based approach (which would run under MINGW64), in any event I believe we're all agreed this script must interigate Emacs to create the "starting list" of dependancies to include as a way to resolve this issue (missing/incorrect deps are frequent source of broken binary releases).

charsets scripts for generating charset map files
in ../etc/charsets
coccinelle semantic patches for use with the static code
analyzer coccinelle. Since they apply a few
minor changes in Emacs internals in multiple
places, they are trivial for copyright
purposes.
