A small refactoring allows the scraper to be a lot smarter about cleaning up hierarchies. What do I mean? Stuff like this:

script-0.1/plugin/script.vim
script-0.1/doc/script.txt

That leading "script-0.1" should be removed. It's not easy to determine which directories can be removed and which ones need to be kept, especially for a small script scraping robot. There are as many different ways of naming directories as there are script authors.

The following scripts have been fixed:

• 0023 - EnhCommentify.vim
• 0067 - nqc.vim
• 0090 - vcscommand.vim

This was the last known big deficiency in the scraper. Hopefully it only needs minor cleanups from here on out.

Big thanks to rygwdn for the motivation to make this invasive a change.
