Feature request to introduce a SNAPCRAFT_STAGE environment variable for referencing the stage directory. Closed without implementation or discussion, effectively abandoned due to age and lack of maintainer engagement.

No scores available.
Issue body
Given the use of the after keyword for parts, it is also sometime desired to reference something inside the stage dir; given the execution location and the relocatable fact on building with snapcraft it makes sense to introduce a SNAPCRAFT_STAGE variable that can be used.
Here's an example:
snapcraft.yaml:
```yaml
parts:
part1:
plugin: autotools
source: .
configflags:
- --with-swig: $SNAPCRAFT_STAGE/usr/swig
```
