The previous idea was to use virtual packages in the users configuration
to satisfy dependencies by mapping them to existing installed packages.
Using virtual packages for it doesn't work as expected and trying to make
it work would break other functionalities of virtual packages, like the
version satisfaction checks for `provides` and the ability to replace
virtual packages with real packages. The virtual package functionality
should be used exclusively for virtual packages.
This allows users to specify packages packages that should be ignored.
Ignored packages in dependencies are always satisfied without installing
the package, while updating or installing a package that depends on an
ignored package.
This does NOT ignore the shlib checks, ignoring a package that provides
required shared libraries will abort the transaction as if there was no
package that provides the required shared library.
This is a trickier situation.

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
```
It's basically warning about dangerous operations on strings. And as
far as I could tell, is a valid warning and not a false alarm!
This fix makes the concept of `XBPS_MAXPATH` lose a little bit of sense
as now it doesn't necessarily represent the max size of the paths used
by xbps, but instead the max allowed size of the path configured.
I think this change is ok, but I wasn't able to find any reference to
why it was chosen to be 512. POSIX mandates at least 256, so I'm not
breaking anything that wasn't broken already, and Linux seems to have
a maximum size of 4096, which is pretty safe.
Therefore, this changes should be harmless. I think.
xbps_find_virtualpkg_in_conf() needs to look at the vpkgs set up in
configuration files, not from those set by pkgdb.
As a result of this the two test cases that were failing yesterday are now
fixed.
- Simplify xbps_repo_open::repo_get_dict().
- Use xbps_end() in the utils where necessary.
- Make xbps_end() call xbps_pkgdb_unlock() if necessary.
- Make xbps_end() release rpool resources.
- Make xbps_end() release resources from xbps_handle.
- Fixed 90% of reported leaks (still reachable at exit) from valgrind.
That was to silence valgrind's memcheck with --leak-check=full.
The "architecture" configuration keyword is now available to override
the native machine architecture returned by (uname(2)).
The XBPS_ARCH environment variable still has preference.
The system virtualpkg directory set to <rootdir>/usr/share/xbps/virtualpkg.d contains
virtualpkg configuration files (.conf/.vpkg) that can be overrided by the admin
in <rootdir>/etc/xbps/virtualpkg.d bearing the same file name.
This obsoletes the "virtualpkgdir" keyword support from the xbps configuration file.
The system repository directory set to <prefix>/share/xbps/repo.d contains
system repository configuration files (.conf) that can be overrided by the admin
in <sysconfdir>/xbps/repo.d bearing the same file name.
- Rather than using a POSIX named semaphore use a POSIX lock (lockf(3))
for pkgdb for writers. Writers that cannot acquire the pkgdb lock will
get EAGAIN rather then being blocked.
- Due to using a file lock we cannot write the pkgdb every time a package
is being unpacked, configured or removed. Instead pkgdb is only written
at the end of a specific point in the transaction (unpack, configure, remove)
or via xbps_pkgdb_unlock().
The variables to set cachedir, rootdir and metadir have been
changed to "array of chars", this way there are no extra allocations.
Update clients accordingly and bump API version.
