Log:
  Re-roll pluginloader entries in distinfo.

  The port broke in the beginning of February when upstream uploaded a new
  pluginloader tarball to MASTER_SITES.

  Since the tarball is unversioned and only contains prebuilt Windows binar=
ies,
  here's an attempt at explaining what happened (thanks to Grzegorz Junka f=
or
the
  investigation):

  - Pipelight seems to be really bad at communication. The "News" section on
the
    website says 0.2.8 is the latest version.
  - The "Compile Pipelight" section says 0.2.8.1 is the latest version.
  - 0.2.8.2 was tagged in BitBucket in October 2015 but was never announced
    anywhere on the website, and the project does not seem to have a mailing
    list.
  - The pluginloader tarballs, which contain prebuilt Windows binaries for
    Pipelight's src/windows directory, were not updated at the time 0.2.8.2=
 was
    tagged (the SHA256 checksums match those in the 0.2.8.1 directory in
    MASTER_SITES). This only happened in February 2016, which broke our
distinfo.

  Note that it is unclear why the pluginloader tarballs were not generated =
in
  October, and since those are binary blobs it is still possible that they =
do
not
  correspond to their respective source files. In the future, it would be g=
ood
to
  build those binaries with our MinGW ports instead of relying on those blo=
bs.
