Necessary programs checked at configure time
The mandatory and optional (for example downloader) dependencies are now checked at configure time so users can know what they may be missing before the processing starts. Since its recommended to be run in parallel, it can be hard to find what you are missing after running the pipeline. As part of these checks, the program to use for downloading is now also set at configure time, it is only used as a pre-defined (in `LOCAL.mk') variable during Make's processing. A small title was also added to discus the pipeline architecture that will be filled in the next commit.
