I'm still holding out for the remote chance upstream might deliver on
their promise to release an XPilot 5, which would then offer some
features XPilot-ng doesn't. With that in mind, I included -ng in all
filepaths and the package names so they won't conflict.

While it is still possible they might release xpilot++ (the working name
for XPilot 5, since they've translated it to C++) which would then
become the next version of the current xpilot package, so long as 4.5.5
remains in the current state of disrepair, I feel it is better to have
users upgrade to xpilot-ng.
