There is an option to keep all targets (Packages, Sources, …) compressed
for a while now, but the all-or-nothing approach is a bit limited for
our purposes with additional targets as some of them are very big
(Contents) and rarely used in comparison, so keeping them compressed by
default can make sense, while others are still unpacked.
Most interesting is the copy-change maybe: Copy is used by the acquire
system as an uncompressor and it is hence expected that it returns the
hashes for the "output", not the input. Now, in the case of keeping a
file compressed, the output is never written to disk, but generated in
memory and we should still validated it, so for compressed files copy is
expected to return the hashes of the uncompressed file. We used to use
the config option to enable on-the-fly decompress in the method, but in
reality copy is never used in a way where it shouldn't decompress a
compressed file to get its hashes, so we can save us the trouble of
sending this information to the method and just do it always.

file sends information about the uncompressed file if it can find it as
well as for the compressed file. This was done only for gzip so far, but
we support more compression types. That this information isn't used a
lot is a different story.

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.

partial files are chowned by the Item baseclass to let the methods work
with them. Now, this baseclass is also responsible for chowning the
files back to root instead of having various deeper levels do this.
The consequence is that all overloaded Failed() methods now call the
Item::Failed base as their first step. The same is done for Done().
The effect is that even in partial files usually don't belong to
_apt anymore, helping sneakernets and reducing possibilities of a bad
method modifying files not belonging to them.
The change is supported by the framework not only supporting being run
as root, but with proper permission management, too, so that privilege
dropping can be tested with them.

We do not support compressed indexes for cdrom sources as we rewrite
some of them, so supporting it correctly could be hard. What we do
instead in the meantime is probably disabling it for cdrom sources.

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 framework can be configured to use different compression algorithms
to test different ones, but a testcase testing for gz support should
always be run with gz, regardless of what compressions are configured
otherwise.

For many commands the output isn't stable (like then dpkg is called) but
the exitcode is, so this helper enhances the common && msgpass ||
msgfail by generating automatically a msgtest and showing the output of
the command in case of failure instead of discarding it unconditionally,
the later being chronic-like behaviour

- Explicitly disable compressed indexes at the start. This ensures that we
will actually test uncompressed indexes regardless of the internal
default value of Acquire::GzipIndexes.

funtions (bash complains)

- don't use ReadOnlyGzip mode for PDiffs as this mode doesn't work
in combination with the AddFd methods of our hashclasses
Add also 2 testcases: one to test pdiffs in general and
one to test the handling of compressed indexes.
