repoman: remove most old-style virtual checks

PROVIDE virtuals have been banned from Gentoo's tree (see bug #365505),
so these checks aren't needed anymore. The PROVIDE.syntax check is kept
in the Package class since PROVIDE is still supported for backward
compatibility, and therefore invalid syntax can still have negative
effects. This check can be removed if/when backward compatibilty is
completely dropped.
