[bug#66870] Review

Hi,

Thanks for the review.

Thank you.

I checked only musikcube, jami and widelands and they worked fine. 
Others
must work as well.

Removed "(recursive #t)".

Removed the substitute as it is no more needed.

Moved clap@1.1.7 to a seperate definition.

This vst3sdk is not the original one. It is found in a different
repository than the original one and is suppose to clone as subproject. 
So
it does not make sense to package it in a seperate definition.

Fixed and updated these packages.

I will submit the v2 patches with the above changes.
