If the user switches from unstable repo to a stable one, it is quite hard to
sync its system with the new repo (the user will see many "Local is newer
than stable" messages, nothing more). That's why I introduced -Suu, which
treats a sync package like an upgrade, iff the package version doesn't match
with the local one's.
I added a new pactest (sync104.py) to test this, and I updated the
documentation of -Su.

"Foo replaces bar" simply means that "foo is a new version of bar".
So this patch refactors the code to use this "rule".
_alpm_sync_sysupgrade now does the following for each local package [bar]
(pseudo-code):
for db in syncdbs {
if(db contains bar) {check if db/bar is an upgrade; break;}
replacers = find(bar replacers in db);
if(replacers!=NULL) {ask_user; break;}
}
Note:
1. Replacers are grouped per repo. If more than one package replace bar in
a repo, all of them are considered ("package set of bar replacers").
2. If repo1/foo1 and repo2/foo2 both replaces bar, only repo1/foo1 is
considered (if repo1 stands before repo2 in pacman.conf). FS#11737 is fixed.
3. It can happen that pacman doesn't consider any replacer, if it found a
literal "earlier", so sync132.py modified accordingly (btw, that situation
should not appear irl).
The new sysupgrade code doesn't use sync_newversion(), so I removed the
"local is newer than repo" message, which was annoying with -Qu and
SyncFirst.

This fixes a bug introduced by my previous changes which changes the
behavior of IgnorePkg/IgnoreGroup to allow the user to remove unresolvable
packages from the transaction. The bug is that the target-list was no
longer being consulted first to resolve dependencies, which means that if
two packages in the sync database satisfied a dependency, and the user
explicitly requested one of those two packages in the sync, the other
package was still being pulled in.
A new test was added, sync993.py, to verify the desired behavior.

From now on _alpm_db_find_fileconflicts() works with upgrade and remove
target lists (like checkdeps), which makes it transaction independent
(we still need a trans param because of the progressbar). This is a small
step towards the universal transaction. So we call this function directly
from sync.c before commiting the remove transaction. This is much safer,
but we can get false fileconflict error alarms in some tricky cases
("symlinks puzzle" etc).
The patch on find_fileconflict looks complex, but it is mainly an
"indent-patch", the new code-part can be found after the
/* check remove list ... */ comment, and I modified something around the
"file has changed hand" case (see comment modifications in the code).
Unfortunately sync.c became more ugly, because we have to create 2 parallel
internal transactions: to avoid duplicated work, upgrade transaction is
used to load package data (filelists). This problem will disappear, when
we finally get rid of internal transactions.

Enabled a new prompt to ask the user if they'd like to remove

Many pactest tests that used to fail now return success codes, because
pacman now issues a prompt allowing the user to cancel rather than
failing many transactions, and the pactest scripts always choose to
cancel with no error rather than failing. The only net effect is that
the return status of pacman is now 0 in cases where it used to be
nonzero.

The HoldPkg feature is even more important when the packages to be held are
pulled automatically by pacman, in a -Rc and -Rs operation. Before, it only
applied when the packages were explicitly requested by the user to be
removed. This patch extends holdpkg to -Rc and -Rs by doing the HoldPkg
check just before trans_commit.
Additionally, the whole HoldPkg stuff was moved to the front-end.

Now '-S provision' handling is done in the back-end.
In case of multiple providers, the first one is selected (behavior change:
deleted provision002.py). The old processing order was: literal, group,
provision; the new one: literal, provision, group. This is more rational,
but "pacman -S group" will be slower now. "pacman -S repo/provision" also
works. Provision was generalized to dependencies, so you can resolve deps by
hand: "pacman -S 'bash>2.0'" or "pacman -S 'core/bash>2.0'" etc. This can be
useful in makepkg dependency resolving. The changes were documented in
pacman manual.
alpm_find_pkg_satisfiers and _alpm_find_dep_satisfiers functions were
removed, since they are no longer needed.

I divided resolvedeps into 2 functions. The new _alpm_resolvedep function
will resolve one dependency, for example the 'foo>=1.0-1' dependency. It
can be useful in sync_addtarget refactoring.
The resolvedeps parameters were changed, to be coherent with recursedeps:
* the target-list is an alpm_list* instead of alpm_list**. This is OK,
because alpm_list_add == alpm_list_add_last
* syncpkg param was removed. list contains the to-be-installed packages,
resolvedeps will add the required dependencies into this list
* trans param was removed, it was used in QUESTION() only, which can be used
on the main (handle->trans) transaction only (because the front-end cannot
access our pseudo-transactions at all!).
The patch fixes some wrong dynamic pmdepmissing_t usage.
I did a behavior change (and sync1003.py was modified accordingly), which
needs some explanation: The old resolvedeps didn't elect packages from
'remove' list. I've dropped this because I don't want that 2nd excluding
list param. In fact, in real life, we ~never need this rule. Resolvedeps is
called before checkconflicts, so only -Su's %REPLACES% packages are sitting
in 'remove' list. This means, that we have the replacement packages in our
target list. Usually "foo replaces bar" means, that bar isn't in our repos
any more, so resolvedeps *cannot* elect it; but usually it won't try it at
all, because foo is in the target list, and it is expected to satisfy
'bar>=1.0-1'-like dependencies too. Since checkdeps and checkconflicts is
done after resolvedeps, this cannot cause any harm.

This patch offers a way to fix FS#9228.
By putting "SyncFirst = pacman" in pacman.conf, the version check will
happen before the transaction really starts, and before any replacements is
made.
Otherwise, no version check is done.
The sync301 pactest was updated to use this SyncFirst option.
Example session with SyncFirst = pacman, and a newer pacman version
available :
$ pacman -Su (or pacman -S <any targets>)
:: the following packages should be upgraded first :
pacman
:: Do you want to cancel the current operation
:: and upgrade these packages now? [Y/n]
resolving dependencies...
looking for inter-conflicts...
Targets: pacman-x.y.z-t
Total Download Size: x.xx MB
Total Installed Size: x.xx MB
Proceed with installation? [Y/n] n
As Nagy previously noted, doing this check on any -S operations might look
intrusive, but it can be required.
For example, the case where you want to install a package with versioned
provisions, using a pacman version which didn't support that feature yet
(and there is already a newer pacman in sync db supporting it).

This patch should avoid duplicated target names in the backend.
1. sync_loadtarget will return with PM_ERR_TRANS_DUP_TARGET when trying to
add a duplicated target
2. sysupgrade never pulls duplicated targets
3. resolvedeps won't pull duplicated targets anymore
A pulled list was introduced in sync_prepare to improve the
pmsyncpkg_t<->pmpkg_t list conversion by making it more direct.
Also replace sync1005 and sync1006 by the sync1008 pactest, which is
similar but more interesting (the provisions are dependencies instead of
explicit targets).
sync1005 didn't work as expected anyway. It was expecting that pacman
failed, and pacman indeed failed, but not for the good reason. It didn't
fail during the preparation step because of conflicting targets, but during
the commit step, because of a md5 error...
And sync1006 didn't pass and was not really worth fixing. We have already
enough failing pactests more important than these two.
sync1008 pass with this patch.

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.
