This is nicer than having the caller parse the commit
object, or indirect via the `OstreeRepoFile*` object of the root.
Will be used in ostree-rs-ext around tar parsing.
There is no API method to remove a file or subdirectory from a MutableTree
besides directly manipulating the GHashTable returned by _get_files or
_get_subdirs. This isn't possible from an introspection binding that transforms
the returned GHashTable, and may also leave the tree checksum in an invalid
state. Introduce a new method so that removing files or subdirectories is
safe, and possible from bindings.

Running `ostree commit --tree=ref=a --tree=dir=b` involves reading the
whole of a into an `OstreeMutableTree` before composing `b` on top. This
is inefficient if a is a complete rootfs and b is just touching one file.
We process O(size of a + size of b) directories rather than
O(number of touched dirs).
This commit makes `ostree commit` more efficient at composing multiple
directories together. With `ostree_mutable_tree_fill_empty_from_dirtree`
we create a lazy `OstreeMutableTree` which only reads the underlying
information from disk when needed. We don't need to read all the
subdirectories just to get the checksum of a tree already checked into the
repo.
This provides great speedups when composing a rootfs out of multiple other
rootfs as we do in our build system. We compose multiple containers
together with:
ostree commit --tree=ref=base-rootfs --tree=ref=container1 --tree=ref=container2
and it is much faster now.
As a test I ran
time ostree --repo=... commit --orphan --tree=ref=big-rootfs --tree=dir=modified_etc
Where modified_etc contained a modified sudoers file under /etc. I used
`strace` to count syscalls and I seperatly took timing measurements. To
test with a cold cache I ran
sync && echo 3 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
Results:
| | Before | After |
| -------------------- | ------ | ----- |
| Time (cold cache) | 8.1s | 0.12s |
| Time (warm cache) | 3.7s | 0.08s |
| `openat` calls | 53589 | 246 |
| `fgetxattr` calls | 78916 | 0 |
I'm not sure if this will have some negative interaction with the
`_ostree_repo_commit_modifier_apply` which is short-circuited here. I
think it was disabled for `--tree=ref=` anyway, but I'm not certain. All
the tests pass anyway.
I originally implemented this in terms of the `OstreeRepoFile` APIs, but
it was *way* less efficient, opening and reading many files unnecessarily.

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
See http://spdx.org for further reading.

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

This changes around a few things that didn't work for me:
* Section names seem to be ostree-* instead of libostree-*
* Also XML files are ostree-* (they didn't show up at all)
- gtk-doc doesn't seem to parse const _OSTREE_PUBLIC correctly
* pull documentation is now on the actual functions rather than stubs
* Update gitignore with some more files
And there some changes to make gtk-doc give fewer warnings (not finished)

As rpm-ostree evolves, it keeps driving API additions to libostree.
This creates a relatively tight coupling.
However, if delivering via e.g. RPM, unless one manually remembers to
increment the `Requires:` in the spec file, it's possible for the two
to become desynchronized.
RPM handles versioned symbols and will ensure a dependency if the
application starts using a newer version.
To implement this, switch to `-fvisibility=hidden`, along with an
annotation in the header, and finally add a `.sym` file.
This matches what other projects like systemd and libvirt do.
Although rather than attempting to retroactively version symbols, glom
them all onto the current one.
The tar files we're making of artifacts don't include parent
directories. Now we could change the builder to make them, but we can
also just autocreate them on import. Mode 0755 with no xattrs seems
OK here.
It's pretty trivial to map a previously existing commit tree into a
mutable tree too. While we're here change the command line arguments
for commit so that we can now properly overlay any combination of
directory, commit, or tarfile.
