When kpatch-build is invoked with a -s|--sourcedir USERSRCDIR value,
kpatch-build doesn't source the /etc/os-release file as it can't assume
that the user-specified kernel source config matches any particular
distribution. Subsequent is_supported_{rpm,deb}_distro() function calls
will result in ugly syntax errors like:
kpatch-build: line 697: SUPPORTED_RPM_DISTROS: bad array subscript
kpatch-build: line 692: SUPPORTED_DEB_DISTROS: bad array subscript
Enhance the is_supported_{rpm,deb}_distro() functions to check that a
non-NULL distribution string argument exists before indexing the
SUPPORTED_{RPM,DEB}_DISTROS associative arrays.

Commit 69e71f8 ("kpatch-build: cleanup kernel file backup/restore") consolidated a bunch of kernel-tree copy and restoring. As part of that effort, when kpatch-build is invoked with a -s|--sourcedir USERSRCDIR value the vmlinux file is now saved to "$TEMPDIR/kernel-backup/" and not simply "$TEMPDIR/". This results in kpatch-build confusion like: readelf: /home/jolawren/.kpatch/tmp/vmlinux: Error: No such file Update the VMLINUX reassignment in this case to point to the new path.

Commit 629b5ac ("kpatch-build: Fix setlocalversion issue with 6.3 kernel") fixed VERMAGIC_STRING between kpatch original/patched kernel builds by creating a temporary scripts/setlocalversion script. This was accomplished by saving the output from `make kernelversion` into a KERNELVERSION environment variable and running the (original) scripts/setlocalversion to gather a "vX.Y" + "<src version>" pair of strings. Unfortunately pre-v6.3 scripts/setlocalversion does not use the KERNELVERSION environment variable, so the same efforts results in an unusable "<NULL>" + "<src version>" version string pair. Restore the original `scripts/setlocalversion --save-scmversion` invocation for source trees that (still) support the --save-scmversion option.

When invoking kpatch-build through integration testing, like:
$ make PATCH_DIR="linux-6.9.0" \
KPATCH_BUILD_OPTS="--sourcedir /root/linux" \
integration-slow
results in an error as kpatch-build's `make kernelversion` adds
directory information to its output:
make[2]: Entering directory '/root/linux'
6.9.0
make[2]: Leaving directory '/root/linux'
This screws up kpatch-build's assignment of the make output to
LOCALVERSION, which was expecting only "6.9.0".
Add --no-print-directory to the make invocation to avoid the undesired
entering / leaving directory info.
