[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/2] prefix.eclass: don't redundantly define EPREFIX as an eclass variable

[Sam James]

Since EAPI 3, EPREFIX has been defined via PMS. Having this as an
"eclass variable" in docs is confusing as it implies one needs
prefix.eclass to provide it.

Drop it given it adds nothing and causes confusion.
