Conceptually `ostree-repo-pull.c` should be be written using
just public APIs; we theoretically support building without HTTP
for people who just want to use the object store portion and
do their own fetching.
We have some nontrivial behaviors in the pull layer though; one
of those is the "bareuseronly" verification. Make a new internal
API that accepts flags, move it into `commit.c`. This
is prep for further work in changing object import to support
reflinks.

We don't want to skip the entire test, because the whole point of
bare-user-only is that it works in the absence of xattrs; but we do
need to skip this last stage, which explicitly uses a bare-user
repository.

Thinking about the problem of flatpak converting from `bare-user` to `bare-user-only`
"in place" by creating a new repo and doing a `pull-local`, I realized
that we can optimize this process by doing hardlinks for both metadata
and regular files. The repo formats are *almost* compatible, the
exception being symlinks.
An earlier patch caused us to do hardlinks for metadata, this patch takes things
to the next step and special cases this specific conversion. In this case we
need to parse the source object to determine whether or not it's a symlink.

See https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/909 for more information on the
rationale. Basically there's no reason for flatpak (which uses `bare-user-only`)
to have world-writable dirs. Particularly with the presence of the system
helper.
An approach I considered instead was to parse and validate directory metadata
objects at commit time. We still may do that in addition; for file objects we *had*
to do it that way because the actual files would be laid down suid. But directories
live only as inert `.dirmeta` objects until we do a checkout (i.e. `mkdir()`), so
we can solve the problem at checkout time.

These exist in the wild for flatpak, and aren't really a problem. The canonical
permissions are still either `0755` or `0644`, we just support the additional
writable bit for the group (i.e. extend the set to include `0775` and `0664`)
now to avoid breaking some flatpak content.

We didn't have coverage of this before, and adding the test infrastructure will
help ensure we have coverage for more changes here.

This is somewhat complicated by such repos only properly supporting
some subset of file metadata (uid/gid 0, etc). We fix this by
always commiting with filters that make it work.
