Add a bunch of guards around function calls like open() and stat() to ensure
we are not going to get ourselves a python error. This made implementing and
testing the new upgrade045 pactest much easier, as its whole purpose was to
create a dead symlink and debug a segfault of pacman (which caused no DB
entries to be written) to support the previously checked in fix for FS#9235
(commit 0c2206f542). Both of these cases are
now non-fatal in pactest.

With --unneeded option 'pacman -R' doesn't stop in case of dependency error;
it removes the needed-dependency targets from the target-list instead. See
also: http://archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2007-October/009653.html .
The patch also adds a new causingpkg field to pmdepmissing_t which indicates
the to-be-removed package which would cause a dependency break. This is
needed, because miss->depend.name may be a provision. miss->causingpkg will
be useful in -R dependency error messages too.
[Xavier: renamed inducer to causingpkg, removed the _alpm_pkgname_pkg_cmp
helper function as requested by Aaron. This might be added by a further
commit. Other small cleanups, updated manpage and bash completion.]

The original patch from Nagy tried to resolve target vs target conflicts,
and so broke the following pactests : sync040, sync041 and sync990
Nagy's proposal to solve this situation was to choose the interactive way,
ask the user how to deal with it: either remove pkg1 or remove pkg2 or stop
here. So he left this as a TODO.
But instead of trying to resolve these conflicts or asking the user, I
tried to find a more conservative way, looking at what the current pactests
expected:
If between the two conflicting packages, one provides the other, pacman
will keep that one and remove the other from the target list. That breaks
sync893 and sync897. But Dan agreed these two looked weird and should be
changed.
This commit should close FS#8897, FS#8899 and FS#9024.

The deptest code (pacman -T) used by makepkg was mostly in the frontend.
There were 2 drawbacks:
1) the public splitdep function returns a pmdepend_t struct, but the
_alpm_dep_free function for freeing it is private. So there was a memleak.
2) there is a helper in the backend (satisfycmp in deps.c) which makes this
function much easier.
So this adds a new public alpm_deptest in libalpm/deps.c, which cleans
pacman_deptest in pacman/deptest.c a lot.
Besides, alpm_splitdep was made private, because the frontend no longer
requires it, and _alpm_dep_free is also private.
Finally the deptest001 pactest was extended.

Change the 'provname provver' format to 'provname=provver'.
In .PKGINFO, the provisions are copied from the PKGBUILD without quotes. So
the provision version was actually handled as a different provision...
See FS#9171.
Dan: Unfortunately we have to change our original specification for
versioned provisions with this patch, but it ends up being the simpler and
cleaner solution in the long run, and if there is any time to change it the
time is now before many packages have been built. Keeping the ' ' based
format would have required us to do special parsing in repo-add, as well as
being susceptible to users not using quotes in their provides array.
Hopefully this will resolve the issues we had with our initial plan. Sorry
for the confusion.

I also changed it for fixing FS#8763 :
if there is exactly one provider, pacman will pull it and print a warning.
if there are several providers, pacman will list them and fail. It's up to
the user to pick one. Add sync501 pactest to reflect that.
The previous fileconflict check (package vs filesystem) skipped the conflict
when the file on the filesystem was a directory or a symlink to a directory,
no matter what the file in the package was.
Now, the conflict will only be skipped if the file in the package is a
directory (so compatible with a dir or a dir symlink on the filesystem).
So in the case of 8156 (new fileconflict003 pactest for this case), instead
of silently ignoring the extraction of the test symlink, pacman will now
fail because of a file conflict between the test symlink in the pkg2 package
and the test directory on the filesystem.

As seen with the recent upgrade of pacman and the removal of the

get deleted upon their removal, which could be dangerous. Instead, we should

The sync package pkg3 depends on the sync package pkg2, but pkg1 replaces pkg2.
So pkg2 is added to the remove list.
When checkdeps checks if pkg2 can be removed, it looks at the packages that require pkg2
(with the RequiredBy field of pkg2), but this doesn't contain pkg3 at this point.
RequiredBy fields are only updated after the packages are installed.
Proposed solution : checkdeps should know both the remove and upgrade list to decide properly.

This patch cleans up and fix the _alpm_trans_update_depends function
and ensure that all requiredby fields are filled in case of multiple satisfiers
(previously, the handling of mutliple satisfiers in that function was inconsistent).
This makes a special case handling of requiredby in commit_single_pkg() obsolete,
and so allows cleaning that code as well.
Also fixed upgrade056 pactest because :
1) the requiredby fields were wrong, and this wouldn't happen with the fixed _alpm_trans_update_depends().
2) this is a very unusual case anyway (and handling all corner cases combined to a broken database
seems nearly impossible to achieve).
