This is intended to verify an existing signature on a database before
making further changes to it and performing updates. Rarely would you
use this without immediately resigning it via the -s/--sign option.
Instead, it is intended as a "chain of trust" operation where the
previous signature is verified to give you some sense that what you sign
off on is also safe.
Still todo: don't make changes unless the signature is not only good,
but also in the accepted list of keys.

In order to be fully secure, we can't only sign packages. We also need
to sign our repository metadata to prevent database falsification,
dependency injection, etc. Add an '-s/--sign' option that allows this
functionality, and will generate a .sig file side-by-side with the
package database.
While at it, fix the issue where a signature file would never be found
because of 'cd' madness (this needs fixing in another commit).

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.

Allow it to be a variable in the PKGBUILD as well as propagating it through
to the built package and the package database. We leave some backward
compatibility in place by placing the '%FORCE%' option in the database if
the package contains an epoch; this will be used by older versions of pacman
and more or less ignored by versions that use epoch.

BASH is defined when you are actually using bash during configure, which
sucks because it ends up being '/bin/sh', messing up all of our scripts.
Change the name of the variable we use in configure, and also ensure we get

Rather than creating no database at all, create an empty zipped tar archive
in its place. This keeps the download side of repositories a bit more sane
as a DB will always exist, and pacman handles this empty case just fine.
For this to be fully transparent, we also need to make sure repo-add and
repo-remove accept an empty "DB" as an argument, which in reality is a
completely void of files .tar.{gz,bz2,xz} archive.

When unzipping packages and the database archives, we don't need to look
through the entire archive to do what we need to do. For packages, .PKGINFO
should only be found once and should be the first file in the package. For
the database check, we only really need to look for one desc file.
The bsdtar -q option is very similar to the GNU tar --occurrence=1 option.

The modification time on depends and desc file were changed to match the
modification time of the package file. I don't see why and we are actualling
losing information here. If we want to know the date of the package file, we
can just look inside the depends file. If we want to know when the entry was
created, we should not alter the modification time of depends and desc.
Besides, this had the non-obvious and undocumented side effect that the
depends file was always created, even if it was empty. And pacman actually
does require that. So I added a "touch depends" to always create the file.

Use the correct database format
Use xdelta3 to get the source and destination files from the delta itself
Allow delta files to be added with repo-add just like package files. delta
files can also be removed with repo-remove. This is simply done by looking
for a .delta extension in the arguments, and calling the appropriate
db_write_delta or db_remove_delta functions.
Example usage:
repo-add repo/test.db.tar.gz repo/libx11-1.1.99.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
repo-add repo/test.db.tar.gz repo/libx11-1.1.5-2_to_1.1.99.2-2-x86_64.delta
