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.

pmdepmissing_t was used for two totally different things :
missing dependencies, and dependency conflicts.
So this patch simply adds a type for dep conflicts,
and convert the code to use it.
This fix the TODO in conflict.c :
/* TODO WTF is a 'depmissing' doing indicating a conflict? */
Additionally, the code in conflict.c now eliminates the duplicated conflicts.
If pkg1 conflicts with pkg2, and pkg2 conflicts with pkg1, only one of them will be stored.
However the conflict handling in sync_prepare (sync.c) is still very asymetrical, and very ugly too.
This should be improved in the future (there is already a pending patch from Nagy that cleans it a lot).

The names related to conflicts are misleading :
For dependencies conflicts, the type is pmdepmissing,

Original idea/patch from Nagy, but the patch already didn't apply anymore,
so I did it again.

My two previous hacks related to this part
(8038190c7c and
b15a5194d1) were caused by the lack of
understanding of a feature introduced a while ago:
Better control over CTRL-C interruptions -- do not leave the DB in an
inconsistent state (54008798ef).
Now I have been looking at this commit, and the added feature is indeed
interesting. The main problem I had with it is that it does a rather
unusual use of alpm_trans_release, which caused a few problems that I tried
to fix in a weird way. I think these problems were caused by the fact that
there weren't any difference between "interrupt transaction" and "release a
transaction which failed" actions from the alpm_trans_release POV. So I
decided to add a new function instead, alpm_trans_interrupt, which is
called on Ctrl+C, and which only sets trans->state to STATE_INTERRUPTED so
that remove_commit and add_commit can exit cleanly at a safe moment. This
allowed me to revert my two previous hacks as well.
Also ensure we handle SIGINT correctly in all cases- if a transaction is
not ongoing, then we can free the transaction and exit quickly.

alpm_db_register_local, which replace the functionality of
alpm_db_register. db_register_local always returns the local DB, and
db_register_sync will always try to register a sync DB. This conceptually
separates the local DB from sync DBs in the code. Also updated the pacman
frontend to use the new functions. In addition, this changes the location
of all sync DBs in the filesystem from $DBPATH/$REPO to $DBPATH/sync/$REPO,
This removes the silly limitation that a sync DB couldn't be named 'local',
along with structurally separating sync DBs and the local DB in the
filesystem.

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).

This basically moves the code from alpm_release, which was mostly about

This is a full refactoring of _alpm_add_commit into multiple functions and a
better layout for later. Some highlights:
* No regressions in pactest performance.
* Much cleaner layout. add_commit is split into four functions:
upgrade_remove, extract_single_file, commit_single_pkg, _alpm_add_commit
* No more super-functions, the heaviest (extract_single_file) is finally
under 400 lines, with much improved commenting as well.
* Incorporation of Andrew Fyfe's ideas for fixing FS #7484. Try to handle
all possible cases of extraction combinations with files, symlinks, dirs,
and non-existant entries on the filesystem. This should make our dealings
with libarchive fall more into our control.

Adds the ARCHIVE_EXTRACT_NO_OVERWRITE libarchive flags

This will prevent symlinks for being overwritten by directories.
All other files that need to be extracted should already have
been deleted previously by pacman.
This flag is not used for extracting files in backup array
to /tmp/alpm_XXXX, because this file is created by mkstemp first,
and so needs to be overwritten by the file from the archive.

With libarchive 2.2.3 (previously 1.3.1), archive_read_extract now returns ARCHIVE_WARN
