No Need for Make.conf Hackery

Not just for desktops, but for all Funtoo systems, we strongly encourage users to have an empty /etc/make.conf file. You will use ego profile to set your subarch, optimization settings, and USE settings. If you find a problem with our official settings, such as needing to add things to /etc/portage/package.use, and you are just installing a regular package you want to use, it's considered a bug, so file a bug. (Why? You still have freedom to tweak things, but we should have some easy-to-use defaults that work 99.999% of the time to make well-maintained paths for our pack. If you fix some annoying USE issue that you experienced in our official profile settings and it gets fixed, then it helps the pack, because these things are annoying not just for you but for everyone.)
