Commit 93f33052de84e9aeaf19c92291d043dad2665bbd restricted auth.conf
entries to only apply to https by default, but this was silent - there
was no information why http sources with auth.conf entries suddenly
started failing. Add such information, and extend test case to cover
it.

This avoids downgrade attacks where an attacker could inject
Location: http://private.example/
and then (having access to raw data to private.example, for example,
by opening a port there, or sniffing network traffic) read the credentials
for the private repository.

This allows us to install matching auth files for sources.list.d
files, for example; very useful.
This converts aptmethod's authfd from one FileFd to a vector of
pointers to FileFd, as FileFd cannot be copied, and move operators
are hard.

The feature exists for a long while even if we get around to document
it properly only now, so we should push for its adoption a bit to avoid
the problems its supposed to solve like avoiding usage of non-world
readable configuration files as they can cause strange behaviour for the
unsuspecting user (like different solutions as root and non-root).

On HTTP Connect we since recently look into the auth.conf file for login
information, so we should really look for all proxies into the file as
the argument is the same as for sources entries and it is easier to
document (especially as the manpage already mentions it as supported).
|

We have support for an netrc-like auth.conf file since 0.7.25 (closing
518473), but it was never documented in apt that it even exists and
netrc seems to have fallen out of usage as a manpage for it no longer
exists making the feature even more arcane.
On top of that the code was a bit of a mess (as it is written in c-style)
and as a result the matching of machine tokens to URIs also a bit
strange by checking for less specific matches (= without path) first.
We now do a single pass over the stanzas.
In practice early adopters of the undocumented implementation will not
really notice the differences and the 'new' behaviour is simpler to
document and more usual for an apt user.

On BSD systems, the root group is wheel, not root, so let's
just use the default group here.

On launchpad #1558484 a user reports that @ in the authentication tokens
parsing of sources.list isn't working in an older (precise) version. It
isn't the recommended way of specifying passwords and co (auth.conf is),
but we can at least test for regressions (and in this case test at all…
who was that "clever" boy disabling a test with exit……… oh, nevermind.

This doesn't allow all tests to run cleanly, but it at least allows to
write tests which could run successfully in such environments.

This allows running tests in parallel.

We use test{success,failure} now all over the place in the framework, so
its only consequencial to do this in the situations in which we test for
a specific output as well.

While on linux files are created in /tmp with $USER:$USER, on my
kfreebsd testmachine they are created with $USER:root, so we pull some
strings here to make it work on both.
