Adds a new testwarning which tests for zero exit and the presents of a
warning in the output, failing if either is not the case or if an error
is found, too. This allows us to change testsuccess to accept only
totally successful executions (= without warnings) which should help
finding regressions.

The constructor is calling the baseclass pkgAcqIndex which does this
already – and also does it correctly for compressed files which would
overwise lead to the size of uncompressed files to be expected.

The configuration key Acquire::AllowInsecureRepositories controls if
apt allows loading of unsigned repositories at all.
The configuration Acquire::AllowDowngradeToInsecureRepositories
controls if a signed repository can ever become unsigned. This
should really never be needed but we provide it to avoid having
to mess around in /var/lib/apt/lists if there is a use-case for
this (which I can't think of right now).

--allow-unauthenticated switches the download to a pre-0.6 system in
which a package can come from any source, rather than that trusted
packages can only come from trusted sources.
To allow this the flag used to set all packages as untrusted, which is a
bit much, so we check now if the package can be acquired via an
untrusted source and only if this is the case set it as untrusted.
As APT nowadays supports setting sources as trusted via a flag in the
sources.list this mode shouldn't be used that much anymore though.
[Note that this is not the patch from the BTS]

nl_langinfo is used to acquire the YESEXPR of the language used,
but it will return the one from LC_MESSAGES, which might be different
from the language chosen for display of the question (based on LANGUAGE)
so this commit removes the [Y/n] help text from the questions itself and
moves it to the prompt creation in which the usage of LC_MESSAGES is
forced for it, so that the helptext shown actually represents the
characters accepted as input for the question.
There is still room for problems of course starting with an untranslated
"[Y/n]" but a translated YESEXPR or the problem that the question is
asked in a completely different language which might have a conflicting
definition of [Y/n] input or the user simple ignores the helptext and
assumes that an answer matching the question language is accepted, but
the mayority of users will never have this problem to begin with, so we
should be fine (or at least a bit finer than before).
Closes nothing really, but should at least help a bit with bugs like
deb:194614, deb:471102, lp:1205578, and countless others.

- add trusted=yes option to mark unsigned (local) repository as trusted
based on a patch from Ansgar Burchardt, thanks a lot! (Closes: #596498)
Note that "apt-get update" still warns about unknown signatures even
when [trusted=yes] is given for the source.
