Sorry for this being such a huge patch, but I believe it is necessary for
quite a few reasons which I will attempt to explain herein. I've been
mulling this over for a while, but wasn't super happy with making the
download interface more complex. Instead, if we carefully order things in
the internal download code, we can actually make the interface simpler.
1. FS#15657 - This involves `name.db.tar.gz.part` files being left around the
filesystem, and then causing all sorts of issues when someone attempts to
rerun the operation they canceled. We need to ensure that if we resume a
download, we are resuming it on exactly the same file; if we cannot be
almost postive of that then we need to start over.
2. http://www.mail-archive.com/pacman-dev@archlinux.org/msg03536.html - Here
we have a lighttpd bug to ruin the day. If we send both a Range: header and
If-Modified-Since: header across the wire in a GET request, lighttpd doesn't
do what we want in several cases. If the file hadn't been modified, it
returns a '304 Not Modified' instead of a '206 Partial Content'. We need to
do a stat (e.g. HEAD in HTTP terms) operation here, and the proceed
accordingly based off the values we get back from it.
3. The mtime stuff was rather ugly, and relied on the called function to
write back to a passed in reference, which isn't the greatest. Instead, use
the power of the filesystem to contain this info. Every file downloaded
internally is now carefully timestamped with the remote file time. This
should allow the resume logic to work. In order to guarantee this, we need
to implement a signal handler that catches interrupts, notifies the running
code, and causes it to set the mtimes on the file. It then rethrows the
signal so the pacman signal handler (or any frontend) works as expected.
4. We did a lot of funky stuff in trying to track the DB last modified time.
It is a lot easier to just keep the downloaded DB file around and track the
time on that rather than in a funky dot file. It also kills a lot of code.
5. For GPG verification of the databases down the road, we are going to need
the DB file around for at least a short bit of time anyway, so this gets us
closer to that.

fetchIO_read returns -1 in case of error, and the return type is
ssize_t, not size_t ! So we converted -1 to an unsigned, which led to
huge file write.
The rest is just changing the error return a bit.

- fix one memleak if get_filename failed
- cleanup according to Joerg's feedback:
"url_for_string: If fetchParseURL returned successful, you should always
have a scheme set. The logic for anonftp should only be needed for very
broken server -- do you know of any such?
download_internal:
Specifying 'p' is now a nop -- it is tried by default first with
fall-back to active FTP."

I assume the loop was never iterated more than once, because the write
location was not updated at each loop iteration (buffer instead of buffer +

This allows a frontend to define its own download algorithm so that the
libfetch dependency can be omitted without using an external process.
The callback will be used when if it is defined, otherwise the old
behavior applies.

This fixes FS#14899. When running an -Sp operation without servers
configured for a repository, we would segfault, so add an assert to the
backend method returning the first server preventing a null pointer
dereference.
In addition, add a new error code to libalpm that indicates we have no
servers configured for a repository. This makes -Sy and -S <package>
operations fail gracefully and helpfully when a repo is set up with no
servers, as the default mirrorlist in Arch is provided this way.

Aaron said to consider libdownload a dead project so libdownload support was
removed to more easily fix libfetch one (otherwise many ifdef needed).
There was no direct replacement for ferror to detect an error while
downloading. So instead, I added a check at the end to see if the file was
fully downloaded, which is just a small chunk of code taken from here:

If a Server specified in pacman.conf had a trailing slash, libalpm ended up
building URLs with double slashes, and this broke libdownload with errors
like the following one :
error: failed retrieving file 'redland-1.0.8-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz'
from 192.168.0.90 : Command okay
So the public function alpm_db_set_server will make sure to remove the
trailing slash of servers. For the private function
_alpm_download_single_file, I only added a comment.

Before commit fc48dc31, file:/// urls forced the use of the internal
downloader (libdownload), because the default XferCommand, wget, does not
handle them. We tried to move away from forcing usage of libdownload, so
this commit implemented the handling of file:/// urls manually. However,
this implementation is way too basic. It does not handle the progress bar,
thus nothing at all appears in pacman's output when a file: repo is
synchronized, or when a file is downloaded from a sync repo. Also, it is not
able to detect when the repo is already up-to-date. When libdownload was
used, both were handled.
It seems better to just drop this implementation for now. All users who use
libdownload will get the much better file:// handling back. For the users of
XferCommand, it will be more problematic, but they have several options:
1) Switch to a downloader handling file:// (wget doesn't, but curl does for
example).
2) Drop the file:// repo, and set up light http or ftp servers instead.
Consider that going that way would make this repo available for the whole
local network, which can be useful.
3) Switch back to libdownload, which works perfectly for many users.

We have been using unsigned long as a file size type for a while, which
works but isn't quite correct and could easily break. Worse was probably our
use of int in the download callback functions, which could be restrictive
for packages > 2GB in size.
Switch all file size variables to use off_t, which is the preferred type for
file sizes. Note that at least on Linux, all applications compiled against
libalpm must now be sure to use large file support, where _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
is defined to be 64 or there will be some weird issues that crop up.

This should remove the need for any additional patching to run on platforms
that have libfetch available but not libdownload. It isn't the prettiest,
but we have kept our libdownload impact down to just a few files, so it can
be easily done.

Add a new --disable-internal-download flag to configure allowing the
internal download code to be skipped. This will be helpful on platforms that
currently don't support either libdownload or libfetch (such as Cygwin) and
for just compiling a lighter weight pacman binary.
This was made really easy by our recent refactoring of the download code
into separate internal and external functions, as well as some error code
cleanup.

This should be the main step in the download refactoring initiated by commit
81a2a06818d367f8528c74311171417beb9e1592.
The stub functions introduced by that commit were implemented.
The big download code was mostly composed of two steps, and so it has been
naturally splitted in two functions : download_external and download_internal
file:/// urls are now handled manually, instead of forcing the use of the
internal downloader.
Thanks to Dan for fixing the remaining issues and cleaning up the patch :)

I screwed up originally when I accepted the TotalDownload patch,
8ec27835f40e3df1ce409bc3d913587c474a30c3. I didn't realize how deeply it
modified libalpm and I probably shouldn't have let it do what it did. This
commit reverts much of what that patch added in order to clean up our
internal function calls. We can find another way to do it right down the
road here but for now it has to go.

Remove what was a pretty weird abstraction in the libalpm backend. Instead
of parsing server URLs as we get them (of which we don't usually use more
than a handful anyway), wait until they are actually used, which allows us
to store them as a simple string list instead. This allows us to remove a
lot of code, and will greatly simplify the continuing refactoring of the
download code.
