makerepropkg: use correct devtools makepkg.conf files from dist
Use the recorded buildtool in order to download the matching dist package and use the appropriate makepkg.conf for reproducing the package. This is required as the flags are not recorded in the BUILDINFO hence we need to provide the matching config that declared those flags.

```
+## Building
+
+When building official distro packages the `BUILDTOOLVER` needs to be set to the
+exact label of the release package in order to allow to detect the exactly used
+devtools version. This is required for reproducible builds to fetch the according
+files like `makepkg.conf`.
+
+```sh
+BUILDTOOLVER="${pkgver}-${pkgrel}-${arch}" make all
+```
+
## Releasing
1. bump the version in the Makefile
