* renamed pmlist_t -> alpm_list_t
* made alpm_list_t a public type (alpm_list.h header)
* removed additional storage for registered DBs in pacman source
* some code cleanup
* removed duplicate (pm)list_display functions from pacman source
* misc code cleanup
* Removed some unnecessary headers and library links
* Made things static if possible
* Cleaned up makefiles a bit
* Fixed some old comments in the code
* Fixed some errors the static code checker splint pointed out
* Backwards arguments in a memset call in _alpm_db_read (could have been worse)
* Other various small fixes
Other:
* Default to 80 columns when getcols cannot determine display width
* Removal of ._install as a valid install file in packages
Addition of a forced fflush in an attempt to diagnose mutli-logging
Removal of varargs from the internal logaction function, they are handled in
alpm_logaction just fine
* avoid repeated regex compilations (regex for search string do not
change while scanning the package database)
* remove needless string duplication (regex function do not change target
string nor free them)
* code cleanup
This patch improves search performance:

bash-3.2$
* Modified some dependancy checking
* Changed "performing local database upgrade" message to be more clear
* Change 'usize' to 'isize' in database files
* Scriptlet output is now sent to pacman's log file
* Limited some debugging output to be more clear
* libalpm api changes - move from a _getinfo(p, WHAT_WE_WANT) scheme to a
typesafe _get_what_we_want(p) scheme [not 100% complete yet]
* some const correctness changes
* removal of PM_* types in alpm.h in favor of the pm*_t types used throughout
libalpm
* Addition of hacky architecture check in the _splitname function
* Removal of libfetch from the archlinux proper - it has been renamed to
libdownload and can be found at http://phraktured.net/libdownload
* Merge of _some_ of the Frugalware makepkg change - this may still be
incomplete
* Removal of libftp from cvs proper
* PKGBUILD manpage now says 'PKGBUILD' instead of FrugalBuild (he he)
* Accidental database read of a file-based package (whoops)
* Proper fetching of url-based -U or -A
Removed some newlines from _alpm_log calls, to make debug output more concise
* Furthered the "lazy caching" to force the pkgcache to read nothing
(INFRQ_NONE) by default. Anything requiring package data should now check
the infolevel of each package and attempt to update it. This could be
ironed out a bit more later (by using the front-end get_info function
* Switched to libfetch. Drastic changes to the download code and the callback
progress bar functions. Also fixed the return value of
_alpm_downloadfiles_forreal. Downloading now supports http, ftp, https, and
files urls, along with 'mtime's and numerous other fancy features from
libfetch.
This should be changed later, or at least everything fixed up. Typically a 1
return indicates "an error occured" and some functions still might just return
error on failure.
