Enabled a new prompt to ask the user if they'd like to remove
unresolvable packages from the transaction rather than failing it.
Many pactest tests that used to fail now return success codes, because
pacman now issues a prompt allowing the user to cancel rather than
failing many transactions, and the pactest scripts always choose to
cancel with no error rather than failing. The only net effect is that
the return status of pacman is now 0 in cases where it used to be
nonzero.

This change reorganizes the internal code so that packages are
resolved one at a time instead of all at once from a list. This will
allow a future checkin to prompt the user to see if they'd rather
remove unresolvable packages from the transaction and continue, or
fail the transaction. This change does not affect the actual behavior
of libalpm and all tests pass without changes.

* Change the return values to be more informative.
It was previously boolean, only indicating if a sync package was newer than
a local package.
Now it is a simple wrapper to vercmp, handling the force flag.
* Remove the verbose output from _alpm_pkg_compare_versions.
The "force" message is not so useful.
The "package : local (v1) is newer than repo (v2)" message can be moved to
-Su operation.
For the -S operation, it is better to have something like :
"downgrading package from v1 to v2"
* Don't display the "up to date -- skipping" and "up to date -- reinstalling"
messages, when the local version is newer than the sync one.
* Fix the behavior of --needed option to not skip a target when the local

Now '-S provision' handling is done in the back-end.
In case of multiple providers, the first one is selected (behavior change:
deleted provision002.py). The old processing order was: literal, group,
provision; the new one: literal, provision, group. This is more rational,
but "pacman -S group" will be slower now. "pacman -S repo/provision" also
works. Provision was generalized to dependencies, so you can resolve deps by
hand: "pacman -S 'bash>2.0'" or "pacman -S 'core/bash>2.0'" etc. This can be
useful in makepkg dependency resolving. The changes were documented in
pacman manual.
alpm_find_pkg_satisfiers and _alpm_find_dep_satisfiers functions were
removed, since they are no longer needed.

"fallback to group".

I divided resolvedeps into 2 functions. The new _alpm_resolvedep function
will resolve one dependency, for example the 'foo>=1.0-1' dependency. It
can be useful in sync_addtarget refactoring.
The resolvedeps parameters were changed, to be coherent with recursedeps:
* the target-list is an alpm_list* instead of alpm_list**. This is OK,
because alpm_list_add == alpm_list_add_last
* syncpkg param was removed. list contains the to-be-installed packages,
resolvedeps will add the required dependencies into this list
* trans param was removed, it was used in QUESTION() only, which can be used
on the main (handle->trans) transaction only (because the front-end cannot
access our pseudo-transactions at all!).
The patch fixes some wrong dynamic pmdepmissing_t usage.
I did a behavior change (and sync1003.py was modified accordingly), which
needs some explanation: The old resolvedeps didn't elect packages from
'remove' list. I've dropped this because I don't want that 2nd excluding
list param. In fact, in real life, we ~never need this rule. Resolvedeps is
called before checkconflicts, so only -Su's %REPLACES% packages are sitting
in 'remove' list. This means, that we have the replacement packages in our
target list. Usually "foo replaces bar" means, that bar isn't in our repos
any more, so resolvedeps *cannot* elect it; but usually it won't try it at
all, because foo is in the target list, and it is expected to satisfy
'bar>=1.0-1'-like dependencies too. Since checkdeps and checkconflicts is
done after resolvedeps, this cannot cause any harm.

Add a new totaldlcb callback function to libalpm and make pacman utilize it
when the TotalDownload option is enabled. This callback function is pretty
simple- it is meant to be called once at the beginning of a "list download"
action, and once at the end (with value 0 to indicate the list has been
finished). The frontend is responsible for keeping track of adding
individual file download amounts to the total xfered amount in order to
display some sort of overall progress.

We have been using unsigned long as a file size type for a while, which
works but isn't quite correct and could easily break. Worse was probably our
use of int in the download callback functions, which could be restrictive
for packages > 2GB in size.
Switch all file size variables to use off_t, which is the preferred type for
file sizes. Note that at least on Linux, all applications compiled against
libalpm must now be sure to use large file support, where _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
is defined to be 64 or there will be some weird issues that crop up.

We removed one too many FREELIST() calls when trying to fix some memleaks,

Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
Reference : FS#9547.
The get_filename function first tries to get the filename field from the
database, and if it doesn't find it, it tries to guess it based on the name,
version and arch.
This field was introduced in 3.0, but there are still many old entries in
the official databases without it. So the databases need to be regenerated
first before this patch can be applied.
There is a second problem with the delta code, which needs the filename for
locally installed packages too, but this field is not present in the local
db. So the delta code needs to be fixed first.

Using the graph structures that Nagy set up for dependency sorting, we now
do a similar process for deltas. Load up all of the deltas into a graph
object on which we can then apply Dijkstra's algorithm, using the new weight
field of graph struct.
We initialize the nodes weight using the base files that we can use in our
filecache (both filename and md5sum must match). The algorithm then picks
the best path among those that can be resolved.
Note that this algorithm has a few advantages over the old one:
1. It is completely file agnostic. These delta chains do not have to consist
of package files- this could be adopted to do delta-fied DBs.
2. It does not use the local_db anymore, or even care if a package or file
is currently installed. Instead, it only looks in the filecache for files
and packages that match delta chain entries.

Start to move the delta struct away from an assumed package name scheme and
towards something that is package (or even filename) agnostic. This will
allow us much greater flexibility in the usage of deltas (maybe even sync
DBs some day) as well as allowing code outside of delta.h/delta.c to be much
cleaner with less of a need for snprintf() calls.

This patch should avoid duplicated target names in the backend.
1. sync_loadtarget will return with PM_ERR_TRANS_DUP_TARGET when trying to
add a duplicated target
2. sysupgrade never pulls duplicated targets
3. resolvedeps won't pull duplicated targets anymore
A pulled list was introduced in sync_prepare to improve the
pmsyncpkg_t<->pmpkg_t list conversion by making it more direct.
Also replace sync1005 and sync1006 by the sync1008 pactest, which is
similar but more interesting (the provisions are dependencies instead of
explicit targets).
sync1005 didn't work as expected anyway. It was expecting that pacman
failed, and pacman indeed failed, but not for the good reason. It didn't
fail during the preparation step because of conflicting targets, but during
the commit step, because of a md5 error...
And sync1006 didn't pass and was not really worth fixing. We have already
enough failing pactests more important than these two.

Its implementation was quite broken:
* add_loadtarget() might have silently filtered out some targets when
replacing an older version.
* This was used in sync.c to determine whether a target is implicit or not,
which is incorrect behavior. Before this patch we silently removed user
confirmed replacements; now we always warn on a replacement.
* remove001.py behavior was quite odd in adding same target 5 times to the
target list, we can change this behavior to be a failure.

The original patch from Nagy tried to resolve target vs target conflicts,
and so broke the following pactests : sync040, sync041 and sync990
Nagy's proposal to solve this situation was to choose the interactive way,
ask the user how to deal with it: either remove pkg1 or remove pkg2 or stop
here. So he left this as a TODO.
But instead of trying to resolve these conflicts or asking the user, I
tried to find a more conservative way, looking at what the current pactests
expected:
If between the two conflicting packages, one provides the other, pacman
will keep that one and remove the other from the target list. That breaks
sync893 and sync897. But Dan agreed these two looked weird and should be
changed.
This commit should close FS#8897, FS#8899 and FS#9024.
