The dpkg frontend lock is a lock dpkg tries to acquire
except if the frontend already acquires it.
This fixes a race condition in the install command where the
dpkg lock is not held for a short period of time between
different dpkg invocations.
For this reason we also define an environment variable
DPKG_FRONTEND_LOCKED for dpkg invocations so dpkg knows
not to try to acquire the frontend lock because it's held
by a parent process.
We can set DPKG_FRONTEND_LOCKED only if the frontend lock
really is held; that is, if our lock count is greater than 0
- otherwise an apt client not using the LockInner family of
functions would run dpkg without the frontend lock set, but
with DPKG_FRONTEND_LOCKED set. Such a process has a weaker
guarantee: Because dpkg would not lock the frontend lock
either, the process is prone to the existing races, and,
more importantly, so is a new style process.
Closes: #869546
[fixups: fix error messages, add public IsLocked() method, and
make {Un,}LockInner return an error on !debSystem]

We had this code lying around in apt-mark for a while now, but other
frontends need this (and similar) functionality as well, so its high
time that we provide a public interface in libapt for this stuff.

Some codepaths need to check if the system (in our case usually dpkg)
supports MultiArch or not. We had copy-pasted the check so far into
these paths, but having it as a system check is better for reusability.

C++11 adds the 'override' specifier to mark that a method is overriding
a base class method and error out if not. We hide it in the APT_OVERRIDE
macro to ensure that we keep compiling in pre-c++11 standards.

Doing this disables the implicit copy assignment operator (among others)
which would cause hovac if used on the classes as it would just copy the
pointer, not the data the d-pointer points to. For most of the classes
we don't need a copy assignment operator anyway and in many classes it
was broken before as many contain a pointer of some sort.
Only for our Cacheset Container interfaces we define an explicit copy
assignment operator which could later be implemented to copy the data
from one d-pointer to the other if we need it.

We are the only possible users of private methods, so we are also the
only users who can potentially export them via using them in inline
methods. The point is: We don't need these symbols exported if we don't
do this, so marking them as hidden removes some methods from the API
without breaking anything as nobody could have used them.

Beside being a bit cleaner it hopefully also resolves oddball problems
I have with high levels of parallel jobs.
