Working on the libcurl backend, I hit the issue that the trivial-httpd program
depends on libsoup. I briefly considered having two versions, but libcurl is
client only, and moreover trivial-httpd is no longer trivial - it has various
features which are used by the test suite extensively.
Hence, what we'll do is build it as a separate binary which links to libsoup,
and use it during the tests. We *also* currently still provide `ostree
trivial-httpd` since some things use it like `rpm-ostree-toolbox` and the
Cockpit tests.
After those are ported to use some other webserver, I plan to add a build-time
option to drop it.

OSTree's code for testing predates the `glib-tap.mk` making its
way into GLib. Let's switch to it, as it provides a number
of advantages.
By far the biggest advantage is that `make check` can start to run
most of the tests *in addition* to having them work installed.
This commit keeps the installed tests working, but `make check` turns
out to be really broken because...our TAP usage has bitrotted to say
the least. Fix that all up.
Do some hacks so that the tests work uninstalled as well - in
particular, `glib-tap.mk` and the bits encoded into
`g_test_build_filename()` assume *recursive* Automake (blah). Work
around that by creating a symlink when installed to loop back.
I noticed in the static deltas tests, there were some tests that
should have been under `-o pipefail` to ensure we properly propagate
errors.
There were a few places where we were referencing undefined variables.
Overall, this is clearly a good idea IMO.
And add a syntax rule to avoid this in future.
Fixed by:
sed -i -e 's|^ostree |${CMD_PREFIX} ostree |g' tests/*.sh

Works like "ostree refs" but fetches refs from a remote repo.
This depends on the remote repo having a summary file, but any repo
being served over HTTP *ought* to have one.
For Fedora and potentially other distributions which use globally
distributed mirrors, metalink is a popular solution to redirect
clients to a dynamic set of mirrors.
In order to make metalink work though, it needs *one* file which can
be checksummed. (Well, potentially we could explode all refs into the
metalink.xml, but that would be a lot more invasive, and a bit weird
as we'd end up checksumming the checksum file).
This commit adds a new command:
$ ostree summary -u
To regenerate the summary file. Can only be run by one process at a
time.
After that's done, the metalink can be generated based on it, and the
client fetch code will parse and load it.
