Several improvements (#907)

* Make _llvm_ias="1" the default in customization.cfg

* Remove all git related files after copying source files

* Update PREEMPT_RT's supported kernel subversion and patch revision for 6.8

* Make _libunwind_replace a variable in customization.cfg

* Revise the description of native_intel

* Add ECHO CPU scheduler in customization.cfg

+- `_libunwind_replace` is a variable that can be changed in `customization.cfg` for replacing `libunwind` with `llvm-libunwind`.
 - The script uses Arch's `.config` file as a base. A custom one can be provided through `_configfile` in `customization.cfg`.
 - The installed files will not be tracked by your package manager and uninstalling requires manual intervention. `./install.sh uninstall-help` can help with useful information if your install procedure follows the `Generic` approach.

-**Notes:**
-- If you're running openrc, you'll want to set `_configfile="running-kernel"` to use your current kernel's defconfig instead of Arch's. Else the resulting kernel won't boot.
-- The script will prompt for using `llvm-libunwind`, it can only work with the `llvm-libunwind` `USE` flag in `sys-devel/clang` but it is experimental:
-  - Manual intervention is needed on the `net-fs/samba` EBUILD, see [here](https://bugs.gentoo.org/791349)
-  - The `-unwind` `USE` flag is needed in `app-emulation/wine*` EBUILDs
