The gzip default is 6. When I was writing this code, I chose 9 under
the assumption that for long-term archival, the extra compression was
worth it.
Turns out level 9 is really, really not worth it. Here's run at level 9
compressing the current Fedora Atomic Host into archive:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 2m38.115s
user 2m31.210s
sys 0m3.114s
617M repo
```
And here's the new default level of 6:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 0m53.712s
user 0m43.727s
sys 0m3.601s
619M repo
619M total
```
As you can see, we run almost *three times* faster, and we take up *less
than one percent* more space.
Conclusion: Using level 9 is dumb. And here's a run at compression level 1:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 0m24.073s
user 0m17.574s
sys 0m2.636s
643M repo
643M total
```
I would argue actually many people would prefer even this for "devel" repos.
For production repos, you want static deltas anyways. (However, perhaps
we should support a model where generating a delta involves re-compressing
fallback objects with a bit stronger compression level).
Anyways, let's make everyone's life better and switch the default to 6.

You'd expect
ostree commit --tree=ref=A --tree=ref=B
to produce a commit with the union of the trees given. Instead you'd get
a commit with the contents of just the latter commit. This was due to an
optimisation where we'd skip filling out the `files` and `subdirs`
members of the mtree, just filling in the metadata instead. This backfires
becuase this same code relies on checking the `files` and `subdirs` members
itself to work out whether the mtree is empty.
This commit removes the optimisation, fixing the bug. Maybe there's a way
to keep the optimisation and still fix the bug but it's not obvious to
me.

When doing commit --tree=ref=XXX while at the same time applying some
form of modifier, ostree dies trying to read the xattrs using the
raw syscalls. We fix this by falling back to ostree_repo_file_get_xattrs()
in this case.
Also adds a testcase for this.

If there is a transaction active, then we put writes to detached
metadata into the staging dir, and when reading it we look there
first. This allows transactions to be aborted half-way without
writing the detached metadata into the repository (possibly
overwriting any old metadata from there).
This fixes https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/526Closes: #539

If the detached metadata is not in the repo, try in the parent

We hold a fd open on this, and it's basically now expected
to be immortal. Confer that status.
This was showing up in flatpak crashers, because we'd get
an unexpected errno.

In general this is even cleaner now, though it was better after I
extracted a helper function for the "write tempfile with contents"
bits that were shared between metadata and regular file codepaths.

When reworking the ostree core [to use O_TMPFILE](https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/369),
I hit an issue in the way the untrusted delta codepath ends up trying
to re-open the file to checksum it. That's not possible with
`O_TMPFILE` since the fd (which we opened `O_WRONLY`) is the only
accessible reference to the content.
Fix this by changing the delta processing code to update a checksum as
we're doing writes, which is also faster, and ends up simplifying the
code as well.
What would be an even larger simplification here is if we e.g. used a
separate thread calling `write_object()` or something like that; the
main issue I see there is somehow bridging the fact that function
wants a `GInputStream*` but the delta code is generating stream of
writes.
Closes: #392

When trying to switch ostree to `O_TMPFILE`, I hit the fact that
by default it uses mode `000`. It still works to write to the
open fd of course, but it *doesn't* work to set xattrs because
that code path for some reason in the kernel checks the mode bits.
This only broke for bare-user repos where we tried to set the xattr
before calling `fchmod()`, so just invert those two operations.

The recent memleak fixes motivated me to look at the bitrotted code to
run invocations of `ostree` in the test suite underneath valgrind.
There are a few things here. First, update suppressions file from
libhif, since I recently worked on it.
When running *uninstalled* as we now support, we need
`libtool --mode=execute` in the mix so it expands out to
the uninstalled binary and we don't valgrind the intermediate shell.
However, it's harder than that because we chdir into a tmpdir,
which defeats the libtool logic. AFAICS, the only fix for this
is to determine the realbin path before we chdir, and then unfortunately
we need to change every use of `ostree` to `${OSTREE}` =(
Then this immediately breaks for me on RHEL7 because my ancient
copy of `valgrind-3.10.0-16.el7.x86_64` is unaware of syscall 306, i.e.
`syncfs`.
But let's do this first before I dive into that.

We have a lot of "allow_noent" type wrapper functions since
a common pattern is to allow files to not exist, but still
throw cleanly on other issues.
This is another instance of that, and cleans up duplicated error
handling code.
Part of this is prep for moving away from `GFile` consumers.

In addition to generic fd relative porting,
this is a necessary preparatory step for libglnx porting, because
when I tried to use `g_mapped_file_new` I hit an issue with
it using a different error domain from GIO.
Thankfully libglnx consistently uses the GIO error domain, and here
we're now using it for the `open()` call.

This tries to avoid leaking GVariantBuilders and GVariants in some
situations. The leaks were usually happening when some error occurred
or because of unclear variant ownership situation.
The former is mostly about making sure that g_variant_builder_clear is
called on builders that didn't finish their variant building process.
The latter is surely more work - sometimes the result of
g_variant_builder_end() should not be passed directly to a function,
but rather stored in a g_autoptr(GVariant), sunk and then passed to a
function. IMO, with an advent of g_autoptr, GVariants should be always
sunk instead of relying on some receiver function sinking it. This
would make an easy-to-follow policy of always sinking your
variants. Functions could then assume that the passed variant is
already sunk. These leaks are still happenning in commands, but they
are less harmful, since that code will not be used by some daemon as a
library routine.

The filesystem commit code will never give us potentially hostile

Setting this causes commit to error out. There are other ways we
could do this in a more sophisticated fashion, such as via SystemTap

cleanup of the `tmp/staging-` directory.

There was some leftover intermediate cruft here I noticed
while reviewing another patch:
- We had an output `GFile*` for that was never used
- We required the caller to allocate the loose pathbuf, but
none of them ever reused it
- We had an extra intermediate function
Also while looking at this, I'm now uncertain whether some of the
callers of `_ostree_repo_has_loose_object` should really be invoking
`ostree_repo_has_object()`, but let's leave that aside for now.

In some cases (such as `ostree-sysroot-cleanup.c`), the surrounding
code would be substantially cleaner if it was also ported to
fd-relative, but I'm going to do that in a separate patch.
That way these patches are easier to review for mechanical
correctness. I used an Emacs keyboard macro as the poor man's
[Coccinelle](http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).
⚠️ There is a notable spiked pit trap here around
`posix_fallocate()` and `errno`. This has bit other projects,
see e.g.
7bb87460e6
Otherwise the port was straightforward.
A fast way to generate new OSTree content using an existing
tree is to checkout (as hard links), add/replace files, then
call `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()`, then commit.
But `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()` scans the entire repo, which
can be slow if you have a lot of content.
All we really need is a mapping of (device,inode) -> checksum
just for the objects we checked out, then use that mapping
for commits.
This patch adds API so that callers can create a mapping via
`ostree_repo_devino_cache_new()`, then pass it to
`ostree_repo_checkout_tree_at()` which will populate it, and then
`ostree_repo_write_directory_to_mtree()` can consume it.
I plan to use this in rpm-ostree for package layering work.
Notes:
- The old `ostree_repo_scan_hardlinks()` API still works.
- I tweaked the cache to be a set with the checksum colocated with
the key, to avoid a separate malloc block per entry.

Concurrent pulls break since we're sharing the staging directory for
all transactions in the repo. This makes us use a per-transaction directory.
However, in order for resumes to work we first look for existing
staging directories and try to aquire an exclusive lock for them. If
we can't find any staging directory or they are all already locked,
then we create a new one.

ostree_repo_write_commit_with_time() converts the timestamp to
big-endian byte order.
ostree_repo_write_commit() was also doing this when calling
ostree_repo_write_commit_with_time(), resulting in a corrupted
commit object (timestamp bytes were backwards).

Do not delete a .commitmeta file after removing the last metadata entry.
This way a client will pull the empty .commitmeta file and overwrite old

Also renames OstreeRepoTrustedContentBareCommit to
OstreeRepoContentBareCommit so that it can be used by both.
This will be needed when we introduce checksum verification of objects
in static deltas.
When a commit is deleted and the repo is configured to use tombstone
commits, create one. Delete the tombstone file only if the commit is
pulled again.
