I think I have 390xx legacy ready - it will build (the unused)
*-glvnd-nvidia from now on. Could you give it some testing?

Now cleaning up trunk to prepare a package not building *-glvnd-nvidia.

396 will still build 2 -common packages (egl, wayland) on armhf - s.t.
they can be used by the respective legacy driver packages (the other
-common packages are not relevant on armhf).
