Fix for CWD/PWD

Some functions not respecting CWD and changing it and leaving you in the venvutil directory.

Lint cleaning

Linting

Errno was not working for errno 7

• Bug in errno.sh errno function number 7, E2BIG failed to parse.
• Simplified logic and dead code when no argument passed.

I suspect that the digit in E2BIG was sone on purpose by someone a long time ago to check parsing of macro processors. It happens to be the only errcode with a digit in it. So the regex was failing on RC=7.

Current clone behavior, and lint picking

Summary

• clan Current clone was not handling non-sequenced virtual environments correctly.
• Cleaned out the lint filter

Fixes and minor enhancements

Update worklog and CHANGELOG with recent shell include file enhancements

• Added detailed entries for improvements in errno.sh, util_funcs.sh, and venv_funcs.sh.
• Enhanced error handling, logging, and virtual environment management.
• Documented new functionalities and improvements in error message formatting.

Bug fix release

Fixed problem in warehouse where directories above destination did not exist (mkdir -p)

• Plans to change this with the first tar later.

Housekeeping

Removed a link due to Windsurf using .gitignore to exclude files from its view.

• The workaround of creating a symlink to a directory in .gitigniore in Windsurf, indeed bite me here.
• rRemoved links to external project files.
