Add a bunch of guards around function calls like open() and stat() to ensure
we are not going to get ourselves a python error. This made implementing and
testing the new upgrade045 pactest much easier, as its whole purpose was to
create a dead symlink and debug a segfault of pacman (which caused no DB
entries to be written) to support the previously checked in fix for FS#9235
(commit 0c2206f542). Both of these cases are
now non-fatal in pactest.

Trying to make a symlink at the top level previously made pactest fail.
For example : "test -> test2/" as a file in a package.
The path to the test symlink was empty in this case, but the python code
still tried to chdir in "", which failed.

I previously introduced some patches to make just about every path in
pacman/libalpm configurable; doing this with the lockfile seemed a bit too
far and we really should just place the lockfile where it belongs- with the
DB that needs locking.

This change allows us to use all autoconf specified paths, most notably
$(localstatedir). It is quite a change and touches a lot of files, as
all references to the DB and cache were done with the ROOTDIR as a prefix.
* add --lock command-line option to pacman to specify the location of the
lockfile (this can now be specified at configure time by setting the
$localstatedir path).
* Rip quite a few settings out of configure.ac as they are now picked by
setting the paths during configure or make.
* Fix bug with /tmp fallback for sync downloads not working correctly
(related to root location, now the system tmp dir is used).
* Simplified the parameters to some libalpm functions, and added get/set
for the new lockfile option.
* Renamed several of the DEFS to names without the PM_ prefix.

reordering and adding ones that were forgotten (noticed when trying to
compile after reordering).
* Updated the HACKING file to include information on #include usage.
* print -> vprint in "making dir" function in pactest.
* Added a custom 'mkdir' function which makes parents and doesn't fail on
existence
* Added output for 'SKIP' messages (it did not indicate WHY it was skipped)
* Added the ability to generate DB packages in the sync dir (not the cache dir)
for testing downloading. (self.cachepkgs = False)
* Added pmtest.path for the full path to the package file
about bigger DB changes later, but lets not screw anything up for release.
* Removed some weird uses of "not ... ==" usage in pactest- correct me if I'm
wrong, but isn't "!=" a lot more clean and concise?
* Print description of failed tests in the pactest summary. This could get
dirty with a lot of failed tests though, so watch out.
through to pacman, whereas --verbose affects the pactest output - this cleans
up the standard test output significantly
* sorted tests a bit better, sectioning off failed tests AFTER successful tests,
to make it easier to see what failed at a glance
* added a 'testname' member to pmtest, which strips path info (cleaner output)
