An OSTree user noticed that `ostree fsck` would produce `missing
object` errors in the case of interrupted pulls.
It's possible to do e.g. `ostree pull --subpath=/usr/share/rpm ...`,
which gets you just that portion of the commit. The use case for this
was being able to see what changes would appear in an update before
actually downloading all of it.
(I think this would be better covered by static deltas, but those
aren't final yet, and `--subpath` predates it)
Further, `.commitpartial` is used as a successor to the `transaction`
symlink for more precise knowledge in the case where a pull was
interrupted that we needed to resume scanning.
So it makes sense for `ostree fsck` to be aware of it.
The function returns a gboolean, replace g_return_if_fail with
g_return_val_if_fail.
Add similar checks to the other functions.

Starting down the path of not using libgsystem. The main win here
will be code sharing between ostree/rpm-ostree as well as going down
the path of not using GFile * for local files.
This is a noticeable cleanup, and fixes another big user of GFile* in
performance/security sensitive codepaths.
I'm specifically making this change because the static deltas code was
leaking temporary files, and cleaning that up nicely would be best if
we were fd relative.
This is just an efficiency optimization. We're getting fairly close
to all of the hot code paths using `*at()`.
Note that we end up maintaining a half-duplicate code path set here,
because we still need to support commits from an arbitrary GFile *,
which in a possible common case is an OSTree commit.
I think it's worth it though.
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.

To be really sure that any directory entries have hit disk we need to
call fsync() on the directory fd. This API allows us to conveniently
create a directory hierarchy, fsyncing all of it along the way.
Let's be a bit more conservative here and actually fdatasync() the
configurations we're generating.
I'm seeing an issue at the moment where syslinux isn't finding the
config sometimes, and while I don't think this is the issue, let's try
it.
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.
Add an optional dependency on gpgme to add GPG signatures into the
detached metadata, with the key "ostree.gpgsigs", as an "aay", an
array of signatures (treated as binary data).
The commit command gains a --gpg-sign=<key-id> argument. Also add an
argument --gpg-homedir to set the GPG homedir where we look for
keyrings.
