SPDX License List is a list of (common) open source
licenses that can be referred to by a “short identifier”.
It has several advantages compared to the common "license header texts"
usually found in source files.
Some of the advantages:
* It is precise; there is no ambiguity due to variations in license header
text
* It is language neutral
* It is easy to machine process
* It is concise
* It is simple and can be used without much cost in interpreted
environments like java Script, etc.
* An SPDX license identifier is immutable.
* It provides simple guidance for developers who want to make sure the
license for their code is respected

Closes: #1439
Approved by: cgwalters
We added a `.dir-locals.el` in commit: 9a77017d87
There's no need to have it per-file, with that people might think
to add other editors, which is the wrong direction.
Closes: #1206

ostree_checksum_bytes_peek() can return NULL if the checksum has an
incorrect length (most likely from disk corruption) but most callers
are not prepared to handle this and would likely crash.
Use ostree_checksum_bytes_peek_validate() instead, which sets a
GError on an invalid checksum.
The user might "ostree ls /usr/bin/bash/blah", which previously would
segfault.
A somewhat related future enhancement here would be for "ostree ls" to
follow symbolic links.

We want an OstreeRepoFile to be the way to reference a "filesystem
tree" that's stored in the repo, which is a combination of a DIR_TREE
and a DIR_META. The idea is that once you write an mtree to the repo
using ostree_repo_write_mtree, it becomes serialized and you get an
OstreeRepoFile in return.
Change any APIs that care about DIR_TREE / DIR_META checksums to care
about OstreeRepoFiles instead, which right now is mostly is
ostree_repo_write_commit.

We want an OstreeRepoFile to be the way to represent a filesystem tree
inside an ostree repository. In order to do this, we need to drop the
commit from an OstreeRepoFile, and make that go to callers.
Switch all current users of ostree_repo_file_new_root to
ostree_repo_read_commit, and make the actual constructor private.

Instead, use OstreeRepoFile as a handle for the parent commit.
We need to add an accessor for the metadata checksum, as that
hasn't been exposed before.

Having the archived vs not distinction in the object system wasn't
useful in light of pack files. In fact, we should probably move
towards generating a pack file per commit by default.
This will allow us to have hardlink checkouts of archives. A key use
case here is an archive repo of an OS (with root-owned files etc.)
where we want to do builds in a user tree.
A positive side effect of doing things this way is that now the SHA256
checksums for a given file should be identical regardless of whether
it's stored in an archive or bare repository.
