libalpm does not guarantee that script output will be presented to the
user or that stdin will be connected to a terminal. Close stdin so that
scripts do not attempt to use it for user interaction.

In order to work properly, loading the filelist from an mtree file
requires a libarchive patch that has not yet been included in an
official release.[1] Under certain circumstances, an unpatched
libarchive may refuse to read the mtree file due to inconsistencies
between it and the user's file system. In order to allow alpm to
recover in this situation, read the mtree data into a temporary filelist
that is only copied over to the package if the entire read is
successful.

Paths from noupgrade, the transaction skip_remove, and package backup
lists were combined into a single list matched using fnmatch causing
paths with glob characters to match unrelated files.

There was a lot of confusion regarding these warnings, particularly for
packages that create users post_install and then chown the directories.

If the call to alpm_logaction failed it would overwrite pm_errno,
leading to error messages unrelated to the actual reason the transaction
failed.

Prevents the need to rename the file if we end up keeping it and ensures
that pacnew files always reflect the most recent version by overwriting
stale copies.

Leave user files in place and save new config files with a .pacnew
extension. This reduces the complexity of file extraction and respects
the principle that pacman shouldn't modify files it didn't create.

If an error occurs the actual path being extracted is more useful than
the original path from the package file list. The original path is
still used for checks that use it directly.

alpm's database files (.INSTALL, .MTREE, etc.) should be extracted no
matter what; skip mtree/needbackup/noextract/noupgrade checks for them.

This will allow pacman to parse its config file in a single pass and
removes the need for the *_SET siglevels in alpm that were only required
for pacman's siglevel inheritance.

It was allocating the required size rather than the calculated new size,
resulting in pathological incremental reallocations.

The files_size variable contains the current capacity (in bytes) and
should not be used to calculate the next length increment. It only works
because _alpm_greedy_grow currently results in incremental growth.

_alpm_pkg_dup leaves the destination pointer unaltered in case of fatal
errors, so when commits 2f0ca00e and be4198b3 freed the pointer, they
fixed a memory leak on non-fatal errors by replacing it with
a segmentation fault on fatal errors.

This commit adds support to libalpm to parse the pkgbase present in
