In every case we were calling calloc, the struct we allocated (or the
memory to be used) is fully specified later in the method.
For alpm_list_t allocations, we always set all of data, next, and prev.
For list copying and transforming to an array, we always copy the entire
data element, so no need to zero it first.

This accomplishes quite a few things with one rather invasive change.
1. Iteration is much more performant, due to a reduction in pointer
chasing and linear item access.
2. Data structures are smaller- we no longer have the overhead of the
linked list as the file struts are now laid out consecutively in
memory.
3. Memory allocation has been massively reworked. Before, we would
allocate three different pieces of memory per file item- the list
struct, the file struct, and the copied filename. What this resulted
in was massive fragmentation of memory when loading filelists since
the memory allocator had to leave holes all over the place. The new
situation here now removes the need for any list item allocation;
allocates the file structs in contiguous memory (and reallocs as
necessary), leaving only the strings as individually allocated. Tests
using valgrind (massif) show some pretty significant memory
reductions on the worst case `pacman -Ql > /dev/null` (366387 files
on my machine):
Before:
Peak heap: 54,416,024 B
Useful heap: 36,840,692 B
Extra heap: 17,575,332 B
After:
Peak heap: 38,004,352 B
Useful heap: 28,101,347 B
Extra heap: 9,903,005 B
Several small helper methods have been introduced, including a list to
array conversion helper as well as a filelist merge sort that works
directly on arrays.

We can readily detect the first node in a list by checking if
node->prev->next is NULL. So there is no need to pass the head
of the list to this function and its prototype now looks like
all the other item accessors.

This was discussed and more or less agreed upon on the mailing list. A
huge checkin, but if we just do it and let people adjust the pain will
end soon enough. Rebasing should be relatively straighforward for anyone
that sees conflicts; just be sure you use the new return style if
possible.
The following semantic patch was used to do the change, along with some
hand-massaging in order to preserve parenthesis where appropriate:

This takes in the list and a list item, and does the pointer dance necessary
to remove it from the list regardless of whether it is first, last, or
somewhere in the middle. It is useful for callers that already know what
item needs to be removed and have a pointer to it rather than doing a search
by data that the plain alpm_list_remove() does.
Refactor alpm_list_remove() to use this function as well.

There is a lot of swtiching between size_t and int for alpm_list sizes

This is more efficient than alpm_list_diff since it assumes the two lists
are sorted. And also we get the two sides of the diff.
Even sorting should more efficient than the current list_diff. Sorting the
two lists should be O(n*log(n)+m*log(m)) while the current list_diff is
O(n*m). So I also reimplemented list_diff using list_diff_sorted.

So I spent a good 4 hours tracking a bug down tonight due to
alpm_list_copy_data not actually doing what I expected to do. We can't find

It's time to define that alpm_list_add(list, foo) adds 'foo' to the end of
'list' and returns with 'list', because:
1. list is a list, not a set.
2. sortbydeps _needs_ an alpm_list_add definition to work properly.
As a first step, I used this definition in recursedeps.

the alpm strcmp operation which takes void* references.
* We had this great visibility patch, but never actually took advantage of
it. Added the right compile flag to make it work and added some more
SYMEXPORTs where necessary to have a successful compile.
reordering and adding ones that were forgotten (noticed when trying to
compile after reordering).
* Updated the HACKING file to include information on #include usage.
* print -> vprint in "making dir" function in pactest.
* Moved entirely to alpm_pkg_get_* accessors, to read data on demand
* Mostly removed the INFRQ_ parameters from outside the be_files backend (making
the backend more extensible in the long run)
* packages created from _alpm_db_scan now have the db and origin set (making
accessors actually work for these packages)
* removed _alpm_db_ensure_pkgcache
* totally revamped the _alpm_checkconflicts function, making it cleaner and
easier to read (and thus fix in the long run) - maintainable code ftw
NOTE: feel free to rename the functions... I couldn't think of anything better
* removed an extra loop in sync.c:find_replacements - no sense in looping over
an entire DB while strcmp'ing the name, when we have get_pkgfromcache
Other:
* package struct "license" -> "licenses"
* Created _alpm_sync_find (duplicate code in some places, find_pkginsync
* Minor const correctness changes along the way
* fixed a couple extra '/' pathing issues (non-issues really)
* removed a duplicate pkg_cmp function
allows for the same bit operators to be used across the board on pkg_get
operations.
* Changed name of INFRQ_NONE -> INFRQ_BASE to more clearly reflect what it
does (loads pkg name and version).
* Added a few missing things on package functions, such as SYMEXPORT and
ALPM_LOG_FUNC.
* Slight updates to pmenv to print 'pass' and 'fail' instead of 'passed' and
'failed'. Keeps output a bit more concise.
* Fixed a doxygen comment spelling error. :P
* Added some provision switching hackery. This could probably use some
refactoring,.. it solves the following case:
pkg1 and pkg2 provide 'foo' and are both installed
pkg3 depends on 'foo' and so lists 'pkg1' in the REQUIREDBY db section
pkg1 is upgraded and no longer provides 'foo'
** This code ensures that the REQUIREDBY of pkg3 is updated to require pkg2
now instead of pkg1
