We don't write with extra or unknown whitespace, so there is little
reason for us to trim it when reading either. This also fixes the
hopefully never encountered "paths that start or end with spaces" issue,
for which two pactests have been added. The tests also contain other
evil characters that we have encountered before and handle just fine,
but it doesn't hurt to ensure we don't break such support in the future.

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

This gives us more granularity than the former Never/Optional/Always
trifecta. The frontend still uses these values temporarily but that will
be changed in a future patch.
* Use 'siglevel' consistenly in method names, 'level' as variable name
* The level becomes an enum bitmask value for flexibility
* Signature check methods now return a array of status codes rather than
a simple integer success/failure value. This allows callers to
determine whether things such as an unknown signature are valid.
* Specific signature error codes mostly disappear in favor of the above
returned status code; pm_errno is now set only to PKG_INVALID_SIG or
DB_INVALID_SIG as appropriate.

We didn't do due diligence before and ensure prior pm_errno values
weren't influencing what happened in further ALPM calls. I observed one
case of early setup code setting pm_errno to PM_ERR_WRONG_ARGS and that
flag persisting the entire time we were calling library code.
Add a new CHECK_HANDLE() macro that does two things: 1) ensures the
handle variable passed to it is non-NULL and 2) clears any existing
pm_errno flag set on the handle. This macro can replace many places we
used the ASSERT(handle != NULL, ...) pattern before.
Several other other places only need a simple 'set to zero' of the
pm_errno field.

This allows us to not require the context (e.g. handle) when calling
this function. Also beef up the checks in the two callers of this
function to bail if the last return code is not ARCHIVE_EOF, which is

This requires a change to one of the pactest return codes and the
overall result of the test, but results in a much safer operating

In packages, our description file contains:
key = value is here
type entries, and we passed "key " and " value is here" to our strtrim
function, causing us to always memmove the value portion to remove the
space. Since this is a throwaway buffer, do the advancing on our own before
trimming to save the need to shift memory around; "value is here" will now
be passed and strtrim will be responsible for trailing whitespace.

Instead, go the same route we have always taken with version-release in
libalpm and treat it all as one piece of information. Makepkg is the only
script that knows about epoch as a distinct value; from there on out we will
parse out the components as necessary.
This makes the code a lot simpler as far as epoch handling goes. The
downside here is that we are tossing some compatibility to the wind;
packages using force will have to be rebuilt with an incremented epoch to
keep their special status.

The old function was written in a time before we relied on it for nearly
every operation. Since then, we have switched to the archive backend and now
fast parsing is a big deal.
The former function made a per-character call to the libarchive
archive_read_data() function, which resulted in some 21 million calls in a
typical "load all sync dbs" operation. If we instead do some buffering of
our own and read the blocks directly, and then find our newlines from there,
we can cut out the multiple layers of overhead and go from archive to parsed
data much quicker.
Both users of the former function are switched over to the new signature,
made easier by the macros now in place in the sync backend parsing code.
Performance: for a `pacman -Su` (no upgrades available),
_alpm_archive_fgets() goes from being 29% of the total time to 12% The time
spent on the libarchive function being called dropped from 24% to 6%.
This pushes _alpm_pkg_find back to the title of slowest low-level function.

Whenever depends is needed from the local db, so is desc. The only
disadvantage to merging them is the additional time taken to read the

Hopefully we've finally arrived at package handling nirvana, or at least
this commit will get us a heck of a lot closer. The former method of getting
the depends list for a package was the following:
1. call alpm_pkg_get_depends()
2. this method would check if the package came from the cache
3. if so, ensure our cache level is correct, otherwise call db_load
4. finally return the depends list
Why did this suck? Because getting the depends list from the package
shouldn't care about whether the package was loaded from a file, from the
'package cache', or some other system which we can't even use because the
damn thing is so complicated. It should just return the depends list.
So what does this commit change? It adds a pointer to a struct of function
pointers to every package for all of these 'package operations' as I've
decided to call them (I know, sounds completely straightforward, right?). So
now when we call an alpm_pkg_get-* function, we don't do any of the cache
logic or anything else there- we let the actual backend handle it by
delegating all work to the method at pkg->ops->get_depends.
Now that be_package has achieved equal status with be_files, we can treat
packages from these completely different load points differently. We know a
package loaded from a zip file will have all of its fields populated, so
we can set up all its accessor functions to be direct accessors. On the
other hand, the packages loaded from the local and sync DBs are not always
fully-loaded, so their accessor functions are routed through the same logic
as before.
Net result? More code. However, this code now make it roughly 52 times
easier to open the door to something like a read-only tar.gz database
backend.
Are you still reading? I'm impressed. Looking at the patch will probably be
clearer than this long-winded explanation.
