In most cases, we want to fully scan a package when we load it, which serves
as a integrity verification check. However, there are times when it is only
desired to read the metadata and nothing else, so allow the caller of pkg_load
to choose the behavior they need.
This pays big dividends in speeding up pacman cache cleaning functionality.

I'm currently working on python bindings for alpm written in pyrex. While
working i found that declaring alpm_strerror as
char * alpm_strerror (void)
instead of
char * alpm_strerror (int err)
and then using pm_errno in the implementation instead of err, could make it
more bindings-friendly.
Dan: cleaned up and added void to declaration. Instead of replacing existing
function, add a new function called 'alpm_strerrorlast(void)'.

Remove some unnecessary headers in the two utilities as well as fix
a possible non-null termination issue in vercmp.

Remove the logmask functionality from the backend as it has been moved to
the frontend, and change the logging callback function to use pm_printf.
In addition, make much better use of va_list- use the args list instead
of a arbitrarily chosen string to print to in the logging functions.

Somehow missed this earlier when changing everything to types.
unsigned short -> pmloglevel_t wherever necessary.

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.
