Previously, tar was called manually with os.system. This caused one fork per
package/db creation, which is costly, especially on cygwin. Besides, it also
caused some problems with directory with whitespaces (that could also be
fixed with quotes, but well..)
Using tarfile module is cleaner and more efficient, and still easy enough.

This is the first step of fixing FS#9547. This should not break any existing
code that may rely on this function behaving the way it did, and should be
good for inclusion in a maint release.
In addition, update pactest so it fills the FILENAME field in the DB entries
it creates so we can move forward with a real fix to this issue.

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.

Update the GPL boilerplate to direct people to the GNU website for a copy of
the license, as well as bump all of Judd's copyrights to 2007.

Remove any checks dealing with requiredby from pactest (but not actually
from the pactests themselves). Of course, we should probably find a new way
to check requiredby values of packages since there is no guarantee our code
is working perfectly.

* Added a custom 'mkdir' function which makes parents and doesn't fail on
existence
* Added output for 'SKIP' messages (it did not indicate WHY it was skipped)
* Added the ability to generate DB packages in the sync dir (not the cache dir)
for testing downloading. (self.cachepkgs = False)
* Added pmtest.path for the full path to the package file
about bigger DB changes later, but lets not screw anything up for release.
* Removed some weird uses of "not ... ==" usage in pactest- correct me if I'm
wrong, but isn't "!=" a lot more clean and concise?
* Print description of failed tests in the pactest summary. This could get
dirty with a lot of failed tests though, so watch out.
through to pacman, whereas --verbose affects the pactest output - this cleans
up the standard test output significantly
* sorted tests a bit better, sectioning off failed tests AFTER successful tests,
to make it easier to see what failed at a glance
* added a 'testname' member to pmtest, which strips path info (cleaner output)
