It's more natural for a few calling places. Prep for patches to go the other
way, which in turn are prep for adding a commit filter v2 that takes `struct
stat`.
`ot_gfile_type_for_mode()` was only used in this function, so inline it here.

This is a more complex implementation of OstreeRepoFinder which resolves
ref names to remote URIs by looking for refs advertised by peers on the
local network using DNS-SD records and mDNS (Avahi). The idea is to
allow OS and app updates to be propagated over local networks, without
the internet.
It requires an OSTree server and code to generate the DNS-SD adverts in
order to be fully functional — support for this will be added
separately.
Unit tests are included.
Includes fixes by Krzesimir Nowak <krzesimir@kinvolk.io>.

This is a basic implementation of OstreeRepoFinder which resolves ref
names to remote URIs by looking for them on any currently mounted
removable storage volumes. The idea is to support OS and app updates via
USB stick.
Unit tests are included.
This bumps libostree’s maximum GLib dependency from 2.44 to 2.50 for
g_drive_is_removable(). If GLib 2.50 is not available, the call which
needs it will be omitted and the OstreeRepoFinderMount implementation
will scan all volumes (not just removable ones); this is a performance
hit, but not a functionality hit.

Add an initial OstreeRepoFinder interface (but no implementations),
which will find remote URIs by ref names and collection IDs, the
combination of which is globally unique.
The new API is used in a new ostree_repo_find_updates() function, which
resolves a list of ref names to update into a set of remote URIs to pull
them from, which can be treated as mirrors. It is an attempt to
generalise resolution of the URIs to pull from, and to generalise
determination of the order and parallelisation which they should be
downloaded from in.

This is a type representing the tuple (collection ID, ref name), which is
guaranteed to be globally unique. It will be used in upcoming commits.
It introduces the concept of a ‘collection’ which is a unique, curated
set of refs which lie in the same trust domain (i.e. all signed by the
same key and validated by the same developer). Flathub might be a
collection, for example; or the set of OS refs coming from a particular
OS vendor.
It includes a function for validating collection IDs.

Looking at `perf record ostree checkout`, some things stand out; e.g.:
```
+ 27.63% 0.07% ostree libgio-2.0.so.0.5000.3 [.] g_file_enumerator_iterate
+ 22.74% 0.28% ostree libostree-1.so.1.0.0 [.] ostree_repo_file_tree_query_child
+ 13.74% 0.08% ostree libostree-1.so.1.0.0 [.] ot_variant_bsearch_str
```
The GIO abstractions are already fairly heavyweight, and `OstreeRepoFile` mallocs
a lot too.
Make things more efficient here by dropping the GIO bits for reading ostree data -
we just read from the variants directly and iterate over them. The end result
here is that according to perf we go from ~40% of our time in the kernel to
~70%, and things like `g_file_enumerator_iterate()` drop entirely out of the
hot set.

This mode is similar to bare-user, but does not store the permission,
ownership (uid/gid) and xattrs in an xattr on the file objects in the
repo. Additionally it stores symlinks as symlinks rather than as
regular files+xattrs, like the bare mode. The later is needed because
we can't store the is-symlink in the xattr.
This means that some metadata is lost, such as the uid. When reading a
repo like this we always report uid, gid as 0, and no xattrs, so
unless this is true in the commit the resulting repository will
not fsck correctly.
However, it the main usecase of the repository is to check out with
--user-mode, then no information is lost, and the repository can
work on filesystems without xattrs (such as tmpfs).

The gzip default is 6. When I was writing this code, I chose 9 under
the assumption that for long-term archival, the extra compression was
worth it.
Turns out level 9 is really, really not worth it. Here's run at level 9
compressing the current Fedora Atomic Host into archive:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 2m38.115s
user 2m31.210s
sys 0m3.114s
617M repo
```
And here's the new default level of 6:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 0m53.712s
user 0m43.727s
sys 0m3.601s
619M repo
619M total
```
As you can see, we run almost *three times* faster, and we take up *less
than one percent* more space.
Conclusion: Using level 9 is dumb. And here's a run at compression level 1:
```
ostree --repo=repo pull-local repo-build fedora-atomic/25/x86_64/docker-host
real 0m24.073s
user 0m17.574s
sys 0m2.636s
643M repo
643M total
```
I would argue actually many people would prefer even this for "devel" repos.
For production repos, you want static deltas anyways. (However, perhaps
we should support a model where generating a delta involves re-compressing
fallback objects with a bit stronger compression level).
Anyways, let's make everyone's life better and switch the default to 6.

When reworking the ostree core [to use O_TMPFILE](https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/369),
I hit an issue in the way the untrusted delta codepath ends up trying
to re-open the file to checksum it. That's not possible with
`O_TMPFILE` since the fd (which we opened `O_WRONLY`) is the only
accessible reference to the content.
Fix this by changing the delta processing code to update a checksum as
we're doing writes, which is also faster, and ends up simplifying the
code as well.
What would be an even larger simplification here is if we e.g. used a
separate thread calling `write_object()` or something like that; the
main issue I see there is somehow bridging the fact that function
wants a `GInputStream*` but the delta code is generating stream of
writes.

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)

Returns a GFile for the default system root, which is usually the root
directory unless overridden by the OSTREE_SYSROOT environment variable
(which is mainly intended for testing).
First, this is just a general continuation of the `GFile -> openat`
transition.
Second, it's preparatory work for fsck to gain awareness of partial
commits.
This has a very basic level of functionality (deltas can be generated,
and applied offline). There is only some stubbed out pull code to
fetch them via HTTP.
But, better to commit this now and improve it from a known starting
point, rather than have it languish in a branch.
This large patch moves the core xattr logic down into libgsystem,
which allows the gs_shutil_cp_a() API to copy them. In turn, this
allows us to just use that API instead of rolling our own recursive
copy here.
As noted in the new comment though, one case that we are explicitly
regressing is where the new /etc removes a parent directory that's
needed by a modified file. This seems unlikely for most vendors now,
but let's do that as a separate bug.

I plan to rename all of these APIs to use the term 'loose', so that it
makes more sense after pack files are introduced. External users
should not use them; instead use _load_variant() or _read_commit().
For the cases where we can't hardlink, use at-relative walking of the
path where possible. We still don't have lsetxattrat, so we also need
to deal with pathnames, but that is now only for symlinks.
Again, the advantages of this are a lot less malloc() of pathnames in
ostree, and much less time spent traversing paths inside the kernel.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707733
Nothing external uses it. We keep ostree_get_xattrs_for_file() public
because it's convenient for external consumers to get xattrs in
exactly the format we desire.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=707733
Clean up how we deal with the uncompressed object cache; we now use
openat()/linkat() and such just like we do for the main objects/.
Use linkat() between the objects and the destination, if possible.

It's now isolated almost entirely to ostree-core.c, except
ostree-repo.c needs to know how to create archive-z2 file headers. So
give it a private API for that.
