This commit removes the recommendation in the create-usb man page for
the user to update the summary in the source repo before using the
create-usb command. I'm not sure where I got the idea that create-usb
depends on a summary in the source repo. I went back to the first commit
that introduced the create-usb command and even using that a summary
isn't required, so it seems unlikely that this changed recently.
This is good news because the exclusive lock that's taken for summary
updates has been causing problems on Endless (due to other processes
having a lock for the duration of the 30 second acquire time out
period).

There are use cases for libostree as a local content store
for content derived or delivered via other mechanisms (e.g. OCI
images, RPMs, etc.). rpm-ostree today imports RPMs into OSTree
branches, and puts the RPM header value as commit metadata.
Some of these can be quite large because the header includes
permissions for each file. Similarly, some OCI metadata is large.
Since there's no security issues with this, support committing
such content.
We still by default limit the size of metadata fetches, although
for good measure we make this configurable too via a new
`max-metadata-size` value.

Currently the locking code checks if the value -1 was set for the config
key "lock-timeout-secs" and if so, a thread trying to acquire a lock
will block indefinitely. Positive values specify how long to attempt to
acquire a lock in a non-blocking way (the attempt is made once every
second). But when the value is read from the config file,
g_ascii_strtoull() is used, which converts it to an unsigned integer.
This commit makes libostree use g_ascii_strtoll() instead, so that it's
possible to set that key to -1 as intended.

Currently on Endless OS, the OSTree ref for the operating system is
something like os/eos/amd64/eos3, so that's what gets passed to `ostree
create-usb` when copying the OS to a USB drive (for offline updates).
However, when eos-updater checks for updates it pulls the metadata for a
candidate commit and in so doing updates that eos3 ref to point to the
partial commit being examined as a potential update rather than the
deployed commit. This causes `ostree create-usb` to fail with an error
like "No such metadata object
7fb045cb2d1f1f3a81bfc157c6128ff443eb56350315b9536bdb56aee0659863.dirtree".
OSTree creates deployment refs that look like "ostree/1/1/0" to maintain
a pointer to the deployed commit, but create-usb can't use these because
it shows up in the summary as just a ref, not a collection-ref.
So this commit adds a --commit option to the create-usb command, so we
can use the appropriate ref but copy the deployed commit rather than a
(potentially partial) update commit.

Copying the xattrs on metadata objects is wrong in general, we
don't "own" them. Notably this would fail in the situation of
doing a pull from e.g. a `bare-user` source to a destination
that was on a different mount point (so we couldn't hardlink),
and the source had e.g. a `security.selinux` attribute.

Change the create-usb command so that it always creates the destination
repository using the "archive" mode, rather than using archive mode when
xattrs aren't supported and bare-user otherwise. This has a few
advantages:
1. The archive mode works with FAT filesystems, which is what most
USB drives are, and which doesn't support xattrs.
2. At least in some quick testing I did, archive mode is about
twice as performant as bare-user mode, in terms of how long it takes for
the create-usb command to complete.
3. This ensures that a tool can safely change the permissions on
".ostree/repo" and subdirectories after create-usb completes, which is
important for Endless since otherwise you can't use `ostree create-usb`
as root and then `flatpak create-usb` as a non-root user on the same USB
drive (or in other words copy OS updates and apps to the same USB).

There's some subtlety to this, we don't handle all cases.
But the 99% cases are using `--sysroot deploy` to create an
initial deployment, and then doing upgrades from inside
a booted deployment.
It was only the latter case that didn't work with a separate `/var`.
Fixing all of them would probably require libostree to learn
how to e.g. look at `/etc/fstab` (or worse, systemd mount units?)
and handle the mounting. I don't think we want to do anything
like that right now, since there are no active drivers for the
use case.

Earlier, the actual reserved space (in blocks) were calculated inside the
transaction codepath ostree_repo_prepare_transaction(). However, while
reworking on ostree_repo_get_min_free_space_bytes() API, it was realized that
this calculation can be done independently from the transaction's codepaths, hence
enabling the usage for ostree_repo_get_min_free_space_bytes() API irrespective
of whether there is an ongoing transaction or not.

This commit defines a metadata key that tells clients to update their
remote config to add a collection ID. This functionality is currently
implemented in Flatpak for the key "xa.collection-id", but there are two
good reasons for moving the key to OSTree:
1) Servers such as Flathub shouldn't set xa.collection-id in their
metadata now or in the medium term future, because many users are still
using old versions of Flatpak and OSTree[1] which would hit various
bugs[2][3][4] on the P2P code paths that are enabled by collection IDs.
Defining a new key means that only clients running recent
(as-yet-unreleased) versions of Flatpak and OSTree will pay attention to
it and deploy the collection ID, leaving the users on old versions
unaffected.
2) OSTree is as "invested" in collection IDs as Flatpak, so there's no
reason the key should be defined in Flatpak rather than here. According
to Philip Withnall, the reason the key was put in Flatpak originally was
that at the time there was uncertainty about tying OSTree to collection
IDs.

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.

In the OstreeRepoFinderAvahi implementation,
ostree_avahi_service_build_repo_finder_result() is where the DNS-SD
records are processed and turned into OstreeRepoFinderResult objects.
Each result object is supposed to have a hash table mapping refs to
checksums, so this is accomplished by first adding a placeholder (a ref
mapping to a NULL checksum) for each ref matched by the bloom filter,
and later filling in the checksums using the remote's summary file,
which happens in get_checksums(). The problem is that there's no
guarantee all the checksums will be resolved (non-NULL), so the
ostree_repo_finder_result_new() call then hits an assertion failure in
is_valid_collection_ref_map() leading to a crash (in the case that one
or more refs had NULL checksums).
There are at least two situations where the ref checksum might not be
found in the peer remote's summary file:
1) The bloom filter match was a false positive. This is going to happen
sometimes by design.
2) The peer remote's summary is out of sync with its DNS-SD records.
This shouldn't normally happen but it's still good to be robust to the
possibility; in Endless OS nothing guarantees the atomicity of updating
the summary and DNS-SD records.
This commit changes libostree to be robust to the possibility of refs
missing from the peer remote's summary, by removing any that still have
a NULL checksum associated with them after the summary has been fetched
and processed.
The other OstreeRepoFinder implementations don't have this issue because
they use summary files directly and therefore always have access to the
checksum.

In a subsequent commit, we add a public API to read the value of
min-free-space-* value in bytes. The value for free space check
is enforced in terms of block size instead of bytes. Therefore,
for consistency we check while preparing the transaction that the

0 is not a valid value (the units are required), and 1MB is taken to
mean 1048576 bytes, not 1000000 bytes (unlike other human-readable sizes

power-of-10 units). It's probably a bit late to change this latter

If for some reason the cached summary doesn't match the cached signature
then fetch the remote summary and verify again. Since commit c4c2b5eb
this is unlikely to happen since the summary will only be cached if it
matches the signature. However, if the summary cache has been corrupted
for any other reason then it's best to be safe and fetch the remote
summary again.
This is essentially the corollary to c4c2b5eb. Where that commit helps
you from getting into the corrupted summary cache in the first place,
this helps you get out of it. Without this the client can get wedged
until a prune or the remote server republishes the summary.
