During a pacman operation such as a group install, pacman can ask several
questions such as "local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway?". They are
usually all answered either by yes or by no:
* yes when you want to reinstall all the targets.
* no when you only want to install the missing ones (either because you are
installing a group, or because you are copying a pacman -S line from wiki or
whatever).
So instead of asking this question for each target, it is now now configured
with a flag. Yes will be the default -S behavior, No will be achieved with
the --needed flag.

This operation made sense in the days before sync DBs existed, but it no
longer has the same usefulness it once did.

This makes --ignore and --ignoregroup able to accept multiple
packages/groups by separating each with a comma.
For instance: pacman -Su --ignore kernel26,udev,glibc

I suppose -Qii could be used for other things than displaying
the list of backup files, but currently, it's the only one,
so that's how I documented it..

Spruce up the asciidoc formatting, fix a few issues that we had. Formatting
now looks pretty good in both the manpage output and the XHTML output.
Also added some options that we have changed since 3.0, and a few wording
updates, etc.

* Fix up the target so we rebuild the manpages when we edit the corresponding
text file.
* Add vim modelines to all of the asciidoc files ensureing the right syntax
highlighting is used and we have expandtabs turned off.
* Start making a few small changes to PKGBUILD.5 to make it pretty in both
HTML and manpage format output.
* Fix the manlink macro to include the manpage section in the link.
