When #15963 was fixed, some build profiles were succeeded by newer
ones, while the older ones were completely removed. However, this
document was never updated to specifically reflect this change.
Additionally, some headers were slightly improved to make them more
descriptive.

- Switch to Python3
- Switch to mawk instead of gawk
- Update ffmpeg (there are several new dependencies)
- Update ICU
- Fix various pre-existing problems with packages not being properly
declared for gcc2 (but somehow it ended up working)
- remove curl, subversion, mercurial
Confirmed that both nightly and release images are building fine on both
32 and 64bit. However, non-x86 architecture may require re-bootstrapping
to do a complete nightly or release image build (the minimal profile
should be fine)
Fixes #16751.

- Clarify why building jam is not needed on Haiku
- Put the 64bit instuctions first, as they apply to both Haiku and other
platforms and are the way to go for people discovering Haiku, usually
(only oldtimers will care about BeOS compatibility)
- Remove the "from non-haiku platforms" from 64bit instructions because
they work just fine on Haiku as well
* Remove parenthetical about cross-tools not being needed on Haiku,
as they are indeed on x86_64.
* Replace mkisofs/genisoimage with xorriso.
* Move mtools to the list of tools generally needed, as EFI builds
require them.
* Update clone URLs and GCC version numbers.
John's revert of my removal commit dragged back a bunch of cygwin/sunos
cruft, as well as re-adding RegExp.cpp to the host libshared, that we don't
need.
Instead, remove this and add libgnuregex_build to just the tools/keymap
link alongside the FreeBSD gnuregex case.
It was needed on macOS for a time when BUrl used regexes for parsing.
Now it does not, and so we can remove libshared's RegExp from build
libshared, and thus also libgnuregex.
The previous commit only checked that they worked if the user
enabled them, but now they will be enabled automatically if the
underlying filesystem supports them.
The ReadMe.Compiling has been updated accordingly.
