Seems to me that pkg_create -O (emit packing list only) should not have
the side-effect of writing to the package-files database. Correct?

Also, seems like pkg_create -O should refrain from interpreting the last
'.' in the pkg-name argument as the beginning of a filename extension,
e.g., etc-sysutil-rc-1.6U.0 yields '@name etc-sysutil-rc-1.6U.0', and
etc-sysutil-rc-1.6U yields '@name etc-sysutil-rc-1'.

If there are no objections, I will commit this patch:
