Rework the frontend and backend to allow passing a ratio value in for
UseDelta rather than having a hardcoded #define-d 0.7 value always used.
This is useful for those with fast connections, who would likely benefit
from tuning this ratio to lower values; it is also useful for general
testing purposes.
The libalpm API changes for this, but we do support the old config file
format with a no-value 'UseDelta' option; in this case we simply use the
old default of 0.7.
We clamp the ratio values to a sane range between 0.0 and 2.0, allowing
ratios above 1.0 for testing purposes.

This reduces the number of regcomp() calls when parsing delta entries in
the database from once per entry to once for the entire context handle
by storing the compiled regex data on the handle itself. Just as we do
with the cURL handle, we initialize it the first time it is needed and
free it when releasing the handle.
A few other small tweaks to the parsing function also take place,
including using the stack to store the transient and short file size
string while parsing it.
When parsing a sync database with 1378 delta entries, this reduces the
time of a `pacman -Sl deltas` operation by 50% from 0.22s to 0.12s.

Ensures that config.h is always ordered correctly (first) in the
includes. Also means that new source files get this for free without
having to remember to add it.
We opt for -imacros over -include as its more portable, and the
added constraint by -imacros doesn't bother us for config.h.
This also touches the HACKING file to remove the explicit mention of
config.h as part of the includes.

We were using copy_data before; this works for the struct itself but not
the strings contained within. Fix it up by duplicating all the data as
we do with our other structures.

This requires a lot of line changes, but not many functional changes as
more often than not our handle variable is already available in some
fashion.

This makes it absolutely dead easy to ensure off_t has the same length
in all compilation units. I just spent 2.5 hours bashing my head on an
issue related to this so damn it I'm fixing it for good.

This is a delta specific definition so it makes more sense to put
it in the delta specific header file.

The from_md5 and to_md5 fields were a nice extra safety, which would avoid
trying to apply deltas on corrupted package files. However, they are not
strictly necessary, since xdelta should be able to detect that on its own.
The main problem is that it is impossible to compute these informations from
the delta only. So repo-add would not be able to compute the delta entry
based on just the delta file.

We have been using unsigned long as a file size type for a while, which
works but isn't quite correct and could easily break. Worse was probably our
use of int in the download callback functions, which could be restrictive
for packages > 2GB in size.
Switch all file size variables to use off_t, which is the preferred type for
file sizes. Note that at least on Linux, all applications compiled against
libalpm must now be sure to use large file support, where _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
is defined to be 64 or there will be some weird issues that crop up.

Using the graph structures that Nagy set up for dependency sorting, we now
do a similar process for deltas. Load up all of the deltas into a graph
object on which we can then apply Dijkstra's algorithm, using the new weight
field of graph struct.
We initialize the nodes weight using the base files that we can use in our
filecache (both filename and md5sum must match). The algorithm then picks
the best path among those that can be resolved.
Note that this algorithm has a few advantages over the old one:
1. It is completely file agnostic. These delta chains do not have to consist
of package files- this could be adopted to do delta-fied DBs.
2. It does not use the local_db anymore, or even care if a package or file
is currently installed. Instead, it only looks in the filecache for files
and packages that match delta chain entries.

Start to move the delta struct away from an assumed package name scheme and
towards something that is package (or even filename) agnostic. This will
allow us much greater flexibility in the usage of deltas (maybe even sync
DBs some day) as well as allowing code outside of delta.h/delta.c to be much
cleaner with less of a need for snprintf() calls.

Another elimination of a static length structure in libalpm. Should result
in a little more memory saved during execution of packages with lots of
deltas attached.
