Aur folks,

I had a need to use mongodb44 and only mongo44-bin was available. mongodb44 was out of date and was orphaned. Not knowing what options the mongodb-bin package is built with and it having different user:group, I decided to update the mongodb44 package.

I spent a good deal of time patching it for boost 1.86 and resolved a number of minor redundant std::move(), and like issues (I still have a few more to go, I missed a couple). However, the package now builds cleanly and you can follow along with what is being built instead of it being lost in a sea of warnings.

Since there is no one-shot update, I adopted the package as maintainer and pushed the update to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mongodb44. The following patches are new:

mongodb-4.4.29-boost-1.86.patch
mongodb-4.4.29-fix-scons.patch
mongodb-4.4.29-no-enterprise.patch
mongodb-4.4.29-redudant-std-move.patch

I'd appreciate thoughts on anything else I should fix in the PKGBUILD. I am also unclear whether I should list debugedit as a build dependency -- it being somewhat of a generic dependency to the makepkg process. Should it be included as well?

(note: this is a BIG build and can take over an hour with link-time optimizations at -j4 or -j8, the source is about a 50M download from github)
