New description:

 One of the patches at #9960 did a lot of clean-up to the file `sage-spkg`:
 quoting environment variables, replacing tabs with spaces, etc., also
 adding comments and TODOs.  Since those changes were not related to the
 issue at #9960, I've split them off and put them here instead.  The main
 change of any content is to look at the file `SPKG.txt` rather than
 `SAGE.txt` when the "`-info`" flag is passed so `sage-spkg` (through `sage
 -info ...`). Also, warnings and error messages are now redirected to
 `stderr`.

 The additional patch to `sage-spkg` is based on the v2 "clean-up" patch,
 fixing some more bugs, adding error checks, improving some messages (see
 comment below / commit message for some more details).

 Apparently support for `sage -info ...` was removed at some point (or
 never existed); the patch to `sage-sage` fixes that.

 The patch to `sage-env` fixes a bug caused or enabled by #10469, which
 through the patch to `sage-spkg` now becomes more visible and potentially
 worse.
