If we are missing a local database file, we get repeated messages over
and over telling us the same thing, rather than being sane and erroring
only once. This package adds an INFRQ_ERROR level that is added to the
mask if we encounter any errors on a local_db_read() operation, and
short circuits future calls if found in the value. This fixes FS#25313.
Note that this does not make any behavior changes other than suppressing
error messages and repeated code calls to failure cases; we still have
more to do in the "local database is hosed" department.
Also make a small update to the wrong but unused flags set in
be_package; using INFRQ_ALL there was not totally correct.

This gives us more granularity than the former Never/Optional/Always
trifecta. The frontend still uses these values temporarily but that will
be changed in a future patch.
* Use 'siglevel' consistenly in method names, 'level' as variable name
* The level becomes an enum bitmask value for flexibility
* Signature check methods now return a array of status codes rather than
a simple integer success/failure value. This allows callers to
determine whether things such as an unknown signature are valid.
* Specific signature error codes mostly disappear in favor of the above
returned status code; pm_errno is now set only to PKG_INVALID_SIG or
DB_INVALID_SIG as appropriate.

There is little need to expose the guts of this function even within the
library. Make it static in be_local.c, and clean up a few other things
since we know exactly where it is being called from:
* Remove unnecessary origin checks in _cache_get_*() methods- if you are
calling a cache method your package type will be correct.
* Remove sanity checks within local_db_read() itself- packages will
always have a name and version if they get this far, and the package
object will never be NULL either.
The one case calling this from outside the backend was in add.c, where
we forced a full load of a package before we duplicated it. Move this
concern elsewhere and have pkg_dup() always force a full package load
via a new force_load() function on the operations callback struct.

Start by converting all of our flags to a 'status' bitmask (pkgcache
status, grpcache status). Add a new 'valid' flag as well. This will let
us keep track if the database itself has been marked valid in whatever
fashion.
For local databases at the moment we ensure there are no depends files;
for sync databases we ensure the PGP signature is valid if
required/requested. The loading of the pkgcache is prohibited if the
database is invalid.

This is another step toward doing both local database validation
(ensuring we don't have depends files) and sync database validation (via
signatures if present) when the database is registered.
Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
This is the ideal place to do it as all clients should be checking the
return value and ensuring there are no errors. This is similar to
pkg_load().
We also add an additional step of validation after we download a new
database; a subsequent '-y' operation can potentially invalidate the
original check at registration time.
Note that this implementation is still a bit naive; if a signature is
invalid it is currently impossible to refresh and re-download the file
without manually deleting it first. Similarly, if one downloads a
database and the check fails, the database object is still there and can
be used. These shortcomings will be addressed in a future commit.

These new method signatures return and take handle objects to operate on
so we can move away from the idea of one global handle in the API. There
is also another important change and that deals with the setting of root
and dbpaths. These are now done at initialization time instead of using
setter methods. This allows the library to operate more safely knowing
that paths won't change underneath it.

Once we do this, add support for VerifySig to pactest. We just check if
the repo name contains Always, Never or Optional to determine the value
of VerifySig. The default is Never. pacman uses Always by default but
this is not suitable for pactest.

Read the package information for sync/local databases into a pmpkghash_t

Provide a alpm_db_get_pkgcache_list() method that returns the list from

this at this stage for ease of implementation. Review whether these are

POSIX does not require PATH_MAX be defined when there is not actual
limit to its value. This affects HURD based systems. Work around
this by defining PATH_MAX to 4096 (as on Linux) when this is not
defined.
Also, clean up inclusions of limits.h and remove autoconf check for
this header as we do not use macro shields for its inclusion anyway.

Whenever depends is needed from the local db, so is desc. The only
disadvantage to merging them is the additional time taken to read the
depends entries when they are not needed. As depends is in general
relatively small, the additional time taken to read it in will be
negligable. Also, merging these files will speed up local database
access due to less file seeks.

The file be_files.c is "split" to be_local.c and be_sync.c in order
to achieve separate handling of sync and local databases.
Some basic clean-up of functions that are only of use for local or
sync databases has been performed and some rough function renaming
in duplicated code has been performed to prevent compilation errors.
However, most of the clean-up and final separation of sync and local
db handling occurs in following patches.

After our recent screwup with size_t and ssize_t in the download code, I
found the `-Wsign-conversion` flag to GCC to see if we were doing anything
else boneheaded. I didn't find anything quite as bad, but we did have some
goofups- most of our public unsigned methods would return -1 on error, which

Commit 34e1413d75 attempted to implement lazy loading of package databases.
Although it took care of my main complaint (creating the database directory
if it didn't exist), it didn't allow sync repos to be registered before
alpm_option_set_dbpath() had been called.
With this patch, we no longer compute the individual repository DB paths
until necessary, allowing full lazy loading to work as intended, and
allowing us to drop the extra setlibpath() calls from the frontend. This
allows the changes introduced in a2cd48960 (but later reverted) to be added
back in again.

Clearly the old code was more elegant (NULL cache indicated "not loaded"),
but it had some drawbacks, so from now on we indicate the state of caches
explicitly.
Old drawbacks:
When we had an empty database (unstable), libalpm called db_populate after
every pkgcache access, because NULL pkgcache indicated "not loaded" state.
This is not a common case, but the same situation can happen with grpcache,
which is more problematic: If the user had a custom repo with no groups,
grpcache was always NULL. (grpcache is also loaded per database.) Thus
every get_grpcache call induced a load_grpcache operation, so the benefits
of grpcache was completely lost.
