I have decided to remove this file completely as it broke at some point
due to an update to Embark (in a non-trivial way it seems), and I'm no
longer an Embark user so it will be hard to keep up with breakage in the
future, too.

I do need to do this if I want to create a package archive automatically
outside of an ELPA. For example, both of my packages contain a
.build.yml file in their repository, which causes the SourceHut build
system (at builds.sr.ht) to create a package archive for every commit
(see https://builds.sr.ht/~dsemy/vcomplete).
In any case, I implemented a simple generator using sed and removed the
<package>-pkg.el files from both repositories.
