* Removed some unnecessary headers and library links
* Made things static if possible
* Cleaned up makefiles a bit
* Fixed some old comments in the code
* Fixed some errors the static code checker splint pointed out
* Backwards arguments in a memset call in _alpm_db_read (could have been worse)
* Other various small fixes
Other:
* Default to 80 columns when getcols cannot determine display width
* Removal of ._install as a valid install file in packages
Addition of a forced fflush in an attempt to diagnose mutli-logging
Removal of varargs from the internal logaction function, they are handled in
alpm_logaction just fine
* avoid repeated regex compilations (regex for search string do not
change while scanning the package database)
* remove needless string duplication (regex function do not change target
string nor free them)
* code cleanup
This patch improves search performance:

bash-3.2$
* Modified some dependancy checking
* Changed "performing local database upgrade" message to be more clear
* Change 'usize' to 'isize' in database files
* Scriptlet output is now sent to pacman's log file
* Limited some debugging output to be more clear
* libalpm api changes - move from a _getinfo(p, WHAT_WE_WANT) scheme to a
typesafe _get_what_we_want(p) scheme [not 100% complete yet]
* some const correctness changes
* removal of PM_* types in alpm.h in favor of the pm*_t types used throughout
libalpm
* Addition of hacky architecture check in the _splitname function
* Removal of libfetch from the archlinux proper - it has been renamed to
libdownload and can be found at http://phraktured.net/libdownload
* Merge of _some_ of the Frugalware makepkg change - this may still be
incomplete
* Removal of libftp from cvs proper
* PKGBUILD manpage now says 'PKGBUILD' instead of FrugalBuild (he he)
* Furthered the "lazy caching" to force the pkgcache to read nothing
(INFRQ_NONE) by default. Anything requiring package data should now check
the infolevel of each package and attempt to update it. This could be
ironed out a bit more later (by using the front-end get_info function
* Switched to libfetch. Drastic changes to the download code and the callback
progress bar functions. Also fixed the return value of
_alpm_downloadfiles_forreal. Downloading now supports http, ftp, https, and
files urls, along with 'mtime's and numerous other fancy features from
libfetch.
* Removed the PMList typedef, in favor of the same naming scheme other
structs use 'pmlist_t'
* Added a time stamp on debug output, to make it more informational
* Moved alpm_db_register to _alpm_db_register, making the public function
not take a callback parameter
