[ITP] fzf 0.10.8

[Adam Dinwoodie]

Folks,

I'm looking at packaging fzf[0], which is a "fuzzy finder" with shell
and Vim integration.  It's not nearly so fast on Cygwin as it is on my
Linux and Mac boxes, sadly (I suspect a combination of it needing to
fall back to Ruby due to Cygwin's lack of Go compiler, plus the standard
Cygwin overheads), but it's still pretty fast, and I've been using it
myself on Cygwin for a couple of weeks, and on my CentOS box for a fair
bit longer.

The upstream package has an MIT license and is already included by Arch
Linux[1].  The main setup.hint is below, and it's ready to upload as
soon as it's declared GTG; I've uploaded the entire package tree[2] and
Cygport packaging code[3] for reference, too.

Thanks! I'm just in the process of working out how to deal with a
bash-completion source ordering issue, then I'll upload and announce.

(In case you're interested: bash-completion sources files in its
directory apparently in alphabetical order. This means fzf's
bash-completion script gets sourced before some things it's supposed
to override; I'm trying to find a slightly less fragile way to avoid
that than just renaming the script as "zzzz-fzf" or similar...)
