`tools/packaging/scripts/apply_patches.sh` uses `git apply $patch`, but
this will not apply to subdirectories. If one wanted to apply with
`git apply`, they'd have to run it with `--directory=...`
_relative to the Git tree's root_ (absolute will not work!). I suggest
we just use `patch`, which will do what we expected `git apply` would
do.
`patch` is also added to build containers that require it.

If the script doesn't find a patches directory it expects, it gives an
error saying to create a dummy 'no_patches' file if you really don't want
any patches applied for that version.
But actual practice in the tree is to call the dummy file 'no_patches.txt'
rather than simply 'no_patches'. Correct the message to match existing
practice.

Update static build scripts to allow build qemu dev tree.
When qemu starts the process for a new version the patch number
from the qemu version is more than 50. Add logic to detect it
and not apply patches fro the base branch.
For example:
Qemu 5.2.50 means the beginning for 6.0 development. After detect a
development version, patches for 5.2.x will not be applied.

Moved the qemu/apply_patches.sh to the common scripts directory and
refactor it so that it can be used as a generic and consistent way
to apply patches.
