Variables by these names are only used from the local wscript and when
running "waf configure", which already for other reasons only can run at
the top-level.
These variables are thus not mandatory and not used.
'top' was a constant that was set to '.', even when inside
subdirectories. It is thus not really top.
I don't know if the intent was to use the actual top (which is available
as bld.top_dir), but for now we make it explicit what we have and do.
https://waf.io/book/ says
By default, the project name and version are set to noname and 1.0. To
change them, it is necessary to provide two additional variables in
the top-level project file
- and waf code inspection confirms that waf itself only will use the top
level APPNAME.
Also, the 'waf dist' comment doesn't seem relevant - especially after
this change - and is removed too.
(Note: libs/evoral/wscript and libs/temporal/wscript still use APPNAME
for other purposes.)

Some wscripts will use
bld.env['VERSION']
but that will also just use the value set in the top wscript.
Done with ad hoc scripting hacks processing unused imports found by pyflakes:

As was noted in 88ee3af3ea it is unsafe/undefined behavior if two threads
sleep on the JACK request file descriptor, since there is no way to control
which one will wake and process the request. Since each thread may have
sent a different request, this can lead to a thread misinterpreting the
response because it is reading the wrong response.
This may (or may not) solve some subtle problems with JACK, but was
revealed by having a control surface (LaunchPad Pro) that registers
three ports from the butler thread at about the same as the GUI
thread is registering the auditioner. One thread read the wrong
response, and because of some slightly weird code/design, it attempts
to rename the port from within the response handler, which in JACK1
leads to deadlock (and later, zombification).
Without this, two threads can both sleep on the same communication channel, and the wake order
is non-determinate, so the wrong thread may process the response to the other thread's request.
See also 976e03c15c which does this for `route_list_to_control_list`.
