make distcheck was unhappy for various reasons:
* headers aren't data, so use _HEADERS otherwise compilation fails
* Mark the gir & typelib data as cleanfiles so they aren't left around
after make clean
* Don't nuke the .la file. This breaks make uninstall, leave it up to
distributions to not install .la files if they don't want them.

We'll always have "bare" mode for keeping files-as-hardlinks as root.
But "archive" was my second attempt at a format for non-root file
storage, used by the gnome-ostree buildsystem which runs as non-root.
It was really handy to have a "tar" like mode where I can create
tarballs as a user, that contain files owned by root for example.
The "archive" mode stored content files as two pieces in the
filesystem; ".file" contained metadata, and ".filecontent" was the
actual content, uncompressed. The nice thing about this was that to
check out a tree as non-root, you could just hardlink into the repo.
However, archive was fairly bad for serving via HTTP; it required
*two* HTTP requests per content object, greatly magnifing the already
inefficient fetch process. So "archive-z2" was introduced.
To allow gnome-ostree to still check out trees as a user, the
"uncompressed-object-cache" was introduced, and that's how things have
been working for a while.
So we should just be able to kill this code. Specifically note just
how much better the stage_object() function became.

Debian uses /lib/systemd/system for system unit files, while i'm
putting ostree under the /usr prefix which means the hardcoded path
fails. Leave it to configure to work out the right location for systemd
units (method copied from pollkit).
Furthermore instead of installing the unit in local-fs.target.wants by
hand add a [Install] section so systemctl enable does the right thing

We have APIs to load metadata as variants, and files as parsed
content/info/xattrs, but for some cases such as static deltas, all we
want is to operate on all objects in their canonical representation.

We used to have a version of this, but since I'm trying to use
GBytes more, this became a more common operation, and it's annoying
to type out the whole G_VARIANT_TYPE ("ay") each time, and pass
TRUE for trusted.

This will be used to test resuming interrupted downloads for
ostree-pull.
With this option, if a whole file is asked for, only half of the file
is given. Then the client should retry with a range request, and
we'll give them the other half.

If we pass XATTR_REPLACE then the attribute must already exist, which
is not our intent. Passing zero creates the attribute if necessary,
or replaces it when it already exists.

* Specifying global options after the command for a more natural:
# ostree commit --repo=/path/to/repo ...
* Support asking for --help without --repo
# ostree commit --help
* Support short form of -h
* Support specifying --repo without equals sign
# ostree --repo /path/to/repo commit ...
* Support global --help and -h
# ostree --help
* Ditto for ostree admin sub commands
* Removed some leaky code
