Support per-repository sets

Description

Currently, at least judging from the docs, only one location for specifying custom sets is supported (/etc/portage/sets). Since often, sets are repository-specific, it should be possible to define and use sets defined in overlays. Portage sorta does this (you can put a sets.conf in the overlay root) already, though it's not fully working yet and still work in progress, afaiu.

Extra bonus points for making the sets configuration compatible to portage.

Propose something please;

re: sets.conf in the repo, realistically supporting that is going to be a massive pita due to the fact it's portage specific namespace- meaning I'll have to maintaining mappings indefinitely. Need to take that one up w/ genone...
