Using different ways of opening files means we have different behaviour
and error messages for them, so by the same for all we can have more
uniformity for users and apt developers alike.

Very unlikely, but if the parent is /dev/null, the child empty and the
grandchild a value we returned /dev/null/value which doesn't exist, so
hardly a problem, but for best operability we should be consistent in
our work and return /dev/null always.

In 0940230d we started dropping privileges for file (and a bit later for
copy, too) with the intend of uniforming this for all methods. The
commit message says that the source will likely fail based on the
compressors already – and there isn't much secret in the repository
content. After all, after apt has run the update everyone can access the
content via apt anyway…
There are sources through which worked before which are mostly
single-deb (and those with the uncompressed files available).
The first one being especially surprising for users maybe, so instead of
failing, we make it so that apt detects that it can't access a source as
_apt and if so doesn't drop (for all sources!) privileges – but we limit
this to file/copy, so the uncompress which might be needed will still
fail – but that failed before this regression.
We display a notice about this, mostly so that if it still fails (e.g.
compressed) the user has some idea what is wrong.

Especially with apt now, it can be useful to set an option only for apt
and not for apt-get. Using a binary-specific subtree which is merged into
the root seems like a simple enough trick to achieve this.

My commit 45df0ad2 from 26. Nov 2009 had a little remark:
"The commit also includes a very very simple testapp."
This was never intended to be permanent, but as usually…
The commit adds the needed make magic to compile gtest statically
as it is required and links it against a small runner. All previous
testcase binaries are reimplemented in gtest and combined in this
runner. While most code is a 1:1 translation some had to be rewritten
like compareversion_test.cc, but the coverage remains the same.

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

Automatically handle the override of list options via its parent value
which can even be a comma-separated list of values. It also adds an easy
way of providing a default for the list.
