Includes the following change:
* When replacing a package that is going to be updated in the transaction
do not remove it, just overwrite its files and continue. The updated
package will find that old files didn't match the SHA256 hash and will
skip them. This solves the issue of new package updates requiring new
dependencies with files that were previously stored in the old version.
For example gtk+-2.20 containing gdk-pixbuf, and gtk+-2.22 requiring
gdk-pixbuf externally.
* libxbps: while running INSTALL/REMOVE scripts, do not fail if a script
returns ENOENT but the script exists; that means the script did not match
the expected action on its switch statement and the fact can be simply
ignored.
* libxbps: while upgrading packages and searching for obsolete files,
do not remove the files that did not match previous SHA256 hash. Also,
only remove obsolete dangling symlinks.
* Add proplib-0.4.1 source and use it in XBPS. This is to avoid
an external dependency, so that we depend on the features of the
internal library. This also means that proplib is not required anymore.
* Added support to read/write gzip compressed plists by default, thanks
to proplib-0.4 that gained new functionality.
That means that from now, XBPS will be able to write compressed gzip
plist files for all metadata related work. This will vastly reduce
bandwidth required for fetching remote repo's pkg index file and
binary packages.

This helps to catch upgrade problems and simplifies some parts of the code.
Bumped XBPS_RELVER because xbps_remove_pkg() has been changed.

- Don't write any archive entry to disk unless the package metadata
plist files are found.
- Always check for the package metadata plist files in the first 4
entries, if they aren't found stop the unpacking... invalid archive.
- Don't check for removing INSTALL/REMOVE scripts on each iteration when
extracting, just check it once before the loop.
- Add doxygen comments and related stuff.

Some changes were made to the API when making the documentation:
- A few exported functions are now hidden, because they were only used
internally in the library.
- A few exported symbols were renamed to document them better than
previously.
- Cosmetic changes all along the way, as well as some fixes here and there.

* A package failed to be upgraded properly if current pkg contained
INSTALL/REMOVE scripts, while the new one didn't have any of them.
Fixed this by always removing current scripts if they exist.
* Essential pkgs are never removed (they are replaced) so the pre remove
action target was never called, now it all works properly.
Bumped XBPS_RELVER because I consider these bugs so important.

libxbps:
* Added xbps_set_cachedir() and xbps_get_cachedir(). By default it's
set to /var/cache/xbps if not specified and it's always relative
to the root directory.
* Move mkpath() code from sync_remote_pkgidc.c into its own file mkpath.c
to use it in another parts of the code.
* Added xbps_get_binpkg_local_path(), that returns the local path to
a binary package file, stored in cachedir or local repo.
* Remote pkg index files are now stored directly in metadir/repodir,
skipping the arch directory because binpkgs are now in cachedir.
xbps-bin:
* Added -c flag to set the cachedir.
* Check sha256 hashes in the download stage so that it can check
a downloaded binpkg immediately once is stored.
* If a binpkg doesn't match the hash it will be refetched.
Bump XBPS_RELVER to 20091128.

libxbps:
- Moved repolist code to lib/repository_pool.c.
- Renamed xbps_{prepare,release}_repolist_data() to
xbps_repository_pool_{init,release} respectively.
- Moved regpkgdb dict code to lib/regpkgs_dictionary.c.
- Renamed xbps_{prepare,release}_regpkgdb_dict() to
xbps_regpkgs_dictionary_{init,release} respectively.
- Use a global reference count for repository_pool and regpkgs_dictionary,
this gives a substantial performance gain while looking for dependencies
in repository pool, among other things.
- Make xbps_find_pkg_* functions return errno and use it to detect
for spurious errors in code using them.
- Add code to detect when a dependency is already unpacked.
xbps-bin:
- Do not set pkg state to unpacked in the transaction, it's set already
while a package is unpacked.
- While installing or updating packages, it now knows when a dependency
is already unpacked and shows it as "unconfigured".
Bump XBPS_RELVER to 20091126.

Implementation used almost the same code than the pseudo-code explained
in the blueprint. Works really fine, tested with glibc-2.10.1 -> 2.11
upgrade.

libfetch from NetBSD's pkgsrc has been imported into lib/fetch, but
the objects are embedded into libxbps. Only a public function to fetch
files has been implemented: xbps_fetch_file().
The library now is built with -fvisibility=hidden by default, and
exported symbols are the ones that use the SYMEXPORT macro.
The code works well enough, but will need many more cleanups.
