sync_addtarget rework
Now '-S provision' handling is done in the back-end. In case of multiple providers, the first one is selected (behavior change: deleted provision002.py). The old processing order was: literal, group, provision; the new one: literal, provision, group. This is more rational, but "pacman -S group" will be slower now. "pacman -S repo/provision" also works. Provision was generalized to dependencies, so you can resolve deps by hand: "pacman -S 'bash>2.0'" or "pacman -S 'core/bash>2.0'" etc. This can be useful in makepkg dependency resolving. The changes were documented in pacman manual. alpm_find_pkg_satisfiers and _alpm_find_dep_satisfiers functions were removed, since they are no longer needed. I added some verbosity to "select provider instead of literal" and "fallback to group". Signed-off-by: Nagy Gabor <ngaba@bibl.u-szeged.hu> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
