This works for both local and sync databases in slightly different ways. For
the local database, we can use the directory hard link count on the local/
folder. For sync databases, we use the archive size coupled with some
computed average per-package sizes to determine an estimate.
This is currently a dead assignment once calculated, but could be used to
set the initial size of a hash table.

Noted in FS#22697. When I factored out _alpm_parsedate() into a common
function, I didn't move the <locale.h> include properly, causing a build
failure when NLS is disabled and this header isn't automatically included
everywhere.

We were returning a package error code rather than a DB one, and we
would leak the archive memory if the database file didn't exist.

Instead, go the same route we have always taken with version-release in
libalpm and treat it all as one piece of information. Makepkg is the only
script that knows about epoch as a distinct value; from there on out we will
parse out the components as necessary.
This makes the code a lot simpler as far as epoch handling goes. The
downside here is that we are tossing some compatibility to the wind;
packages using force will have to be rebuilt with an incremented epoch to
keep their special status.

In most (all?) cases, we will process all files for a given sync database
entry sequentially. The code currently does an _alpm_pkg_find() for every
file in the database, but we had the "current" package readily available.
Shift some local variables around a bit to expose this to sync_db_read() and
use it if the package is the correct one.
On my system, this cuts calls to _alpm_pkg_find() from 20,769 to 10,349
calls during a -Qu operation, and results in a ~30% speedup of the same
operation (0.35 sec -> 0.27 sec). This benefit should be apparent anywhere
we read in the full contents of the sync databases.

There is a lot of swtiching between size_t and int for alpm_list sizes
in the codebase. Start converting these to all be size_t by adjusting
the return type of alpm_list_count and fixing all additional warnings
given by -Wconversion that are generated by this change.
Dan: a few more small changes to ensure things compile, adjusting some
printf format string characters to accommodate the larger size on x86_64.

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.

The old function was written in a time before we relied on it for nearly
every operation. Since then, we have switched to the archive backend and now
fast parsing is a big deal.
The former function made a per-character call to the libarchive
archive_read_data() function, which resulted in some 21 million calls in a
typical "load all sync dbs" operation. If we instead do some buffering of
our own and read the blocks directly, and then find our newlines from there,
we can cut out the multiple layers of overhead and go from archive to parsed
data much quicker.
Both users of the former function are switched over to the new signature,
made easier by the macros now in place in the sync backend parsing code.
Performance: for a `pacman -Su` (no upgrades available),
_alpm_archive_fgets() goes from being 29% of the total time to 12% The time
spent on the libarchive function being called dropped from 24% to 6%.
This pushes _alpm_pkg_find back to the title of slowest low-level function.

This simplifies a lot of the repetative code and makes it obvious where the
tricky or different ones are (e.g. depends, dates). It also makes it
significantly easier to change the way this code works in the future.
There should be no functional change with this patch.

Rather than error out, this is easy enough. Looks quite similar to the code
in be_local for creating the local directory.

Whether it be "desc", "depends", or "deltas", it really doesn't matter-
treat them all the same and have the ability to read any data from any file
in that list. This continues the work in a44c7b8956.

We were including the header in a lot of places it is no longer used.
Additionally, use the correct autoconf macro for determining whether

The splitname function is a general utility function and so is better
suited to util.h. Rename it to _alpm_splitname to indicate it is an
internal libalpm function as was the case prior to splitting local and
sync db handling.

Breaks reading in _alpm_sync_db_read and a lot of pactests (which

Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org>
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.
