revert file-hash based action-merging in acquire
Introduced in 9d2a8a7388cf3b0bbbe92f6b0b30a533e1167f40 apt tries to merge actions like downloading the same (as judged by hashes) file into doing it once. The implementation was very simple in that it isn't planing at all. Turns out that it works 90% of the time just fine, but has issues in more complicated situations in which items can be in different stages downloading different files emitting potentially the "wrong" hash – like while pdiffs are worked on we might end up copying the patch instead of the result file giving us very strange errors in return. Reverting the change until we can implement a better planing solution seems to be the best course of action even if its sad. Closes: 810046
