To allow clean separation of what requires PGP verification and what doesn't,
we want to store remote binpkgs in a different location. This has other
advantages too as it's generally cleaner - having the source of the files
is always going to be useful.
Default `location` in `binrepos.conf` to `location = /var/cache/binhost/${NAME}`
for this. Make sure to exclude `PORTAGE_BINHOST` because it's not clear
what the implicit name would be there, it is deprecated anyway.
