Sometimes index files are in different locations in a repository as it
is currently the case for Contents files which are per-component in
Debian, but aren't in Ubuntu. This has historic reasons and is perhaps
changed soon, but such cases of transitions can always happen in the
future again, so we should prepare:
Introduced is a new field declaring that the current item should only be
downloaded if the mentioned item wasn't allowing for transitions without
a flagday in clients and archives.
This isn't implemented 'simpler' with multiple MetaKeys as items (could)
change their descriptions and perhaps also other configuration bits with
their location.

Users have the option since apt >= 1.1 to enforce that a Release file is
signed with specific key(s) either via keyring filename or fingerprints.
This commit adds an entry with the same name and value (except that it
doesn't accept filenames for obvious reasons) to the Release file so
that the repository owner can set a default value for this setting
effecting the *next* Release file, not the current one, which provides a
functionality similar "HTTP Public Key Pinning". The pinning is in
effect as long as the (then old) Release file is considered valid, but
it is also ignored if the Release file has no Valid-Until at all.

A keyring file can include multiple keys, so its only fair for
transitions and such to support multiple fingerprints as well.

Build system messed up the 1.2.2 commit by not updating the
.po files properly, so they are now.

Downloading and storing are two different operations were different
compression types can be preferred. For downloading we provide the
choice via Acquire::CompressionTypes::Order as there is a choice to
be made between download size and speed – and limited by whats available
in the repository.
Storage on the other hand has all compressions currently supported by
apt available and to reduce runtime of tools accessing these files the
compression type should be a low-cost format in terms of decompression.
apt traditionally stores its indexes uncompressed on disk, but has
options to keep them compressed. Now that apt downloads additional files
we also deal with files which simply can't be stored uncompressed as
they are just too big (like Contents for apt-file). Traditionally they
are downloaded in a low-cost format (gz) as repositories do not provide
other formats, but there might be even lower-cost formats and for
download we could introduce higher-cost in the repositories.
Downloading an entire index potentially requires recompression to
another format, so an update takes potentially longer – but big files
are usually updated via pdiffs which has to de- and re-compress anyhow
and does it on the fly anyhow, so there is no extra time needed and in
general it seems to be benefitial to invest the time in update to save
time later on file access.

This should make it more obvious that CHANGEPATH is a placeholder which
apt will replace with a package specific path rather than a string
constant.

Never updating this information is wrong, updating it automatically
isn't super correct either, but it seems conventional to have it and
updating it more often than needed seems better than updating it never.

In 12f7536 I chose to opt for a slightly better text which avoids
assigning copyright to the FSF (not because it would be wrong to do it,
but is usually not what the contributor intended, but just the default.
xgettext has a --foreign flag for avoiding the copyright, but po4a
hasn't and an empty copyright-holder doesn't work either, so this little
rework of files with sed and cat.

The manpages were fixed by Justin B Rye, lets deal with the rest now.
