phase-functions: prematurely delete WORKDIR if FEATURES=merge-wait
Using the merge-wait feature together with many parallel emerge jobs
potentially leads to a high disk space usage due to the created
portage build directories waiting for their packages to be merged into
the live filesystem prior portage will clean them. This can easily
lead to out-of-space errors.
Prematurely deleting WORKDIR at the end of src_install() helps
reducing the temporarily used disk space. All that portage need to
merge a package into the live filesystem are the files in the image/
directory (D). (At least in theory)
