Now that VCS repos are provided in the source array, it becomes too
complicated to have automatic updating pkgver as was the case with
the old VCS PKGBUILDs (there can be multiple repos of different types

source, etc).
Instead provide an optional way for a PKGBUILD to update the pkgver
value through the specifing of a pkgver() function that returns the
new version string. This is run after all source files are downloaded
so can access the VCS repo if needed.

Instead of creating a subshell for each of these checks (of which there

This requires an ugly amount of reworking of how pacman-key handles
options. The change simply to avoid passing keys, files, and directories
as arguments to options, but to leave them as arguments to the overall
program. This is reasonable since pacman-key limits the user to
essentially one operation per invocation (like pacman).
Since we now pass around the positional parameters to the various
operations, we can add some better sanity checking. Each operation is
responsible for testing input and making sure it can operate properly,
otherwise it throws an error and exits.
The doc is updated to reflect this, and uses similar verbiage as pacman,
describing the non-option arguments now passed to pacman-key as targets.
Similar to the doc, --help is reorganized to separate operations and
options and remove argument tokens from operations.
Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner@archlinux.org>
This will replace our current options parser used in pacman-key,
makepkg, and ideally elsewhere. It follows heuristics closer to that of
GNU getopt long (and thus pacman itself), with the exception that it
does not allow for options with optional arguments. Due to the way this
parser will be used, this sort of functionality will not be needed.
Instead of relying on eval+set, options are normalized into an array,
OPTRET, which callers should expect to be populated after returning from
parseopts. This avoids problems with quotes and spaces in arguments,
assuming that the user quotes properly when passing into the
application.
A new test harness for parseopts is added in test/scripts.
