libarchive: Add support for translating paths during commit #1105

For rpm-ostree, I want to move RPM files in /boot to /usr/lib/ostree-boot.
This is currently impossible without forking the libarchive code. Supporting
this is pretty straightforward; we already had pathname translation in
the libarchive code, we just need to expose it as an option.

On the command line side, I chose to wrap this as a regexp. That should be good
enough for a lot of use cases; sophisticated users should as always be making
use of the API. Note that this required some new #ifdef LIBARCHIVE bits to use
the new API. Following previous patterns here, we use the new API only if a
relevant option is enabled, ensuring unit test coverage of both paths.

For the test cases, I ended up changing the accounting to avoid having to
multiply the test count.

Let's just pass the stat buffer directly?

I did that originally, but then we'd need to #include <sys/stat.h> in ostree.h. Which...is probably fine but takes us a bit farther down the unix-only path. OK, so libglnx already makes us linux-specific...yeah, I'll make that change back.

* will be freed via `g_free()`.

* This pathname translation will be performed *before* any processing from an
* active `OstreeRepoCommitModifier`. Will be invoked for all directory and file

We should document how this relates to use_ostree_convention here.

This feels like it should be a G_OPTION_ARG_STRING_ARRAY instead, where the first filter that applies wins. Though since it's fully backwards compatible, we can do that later if we feel there's a use case for having CLI support for it.

Agreed; let's consider this later, in the end I think we want to encourage use of the API.

g_assert_no_error (tmp_error);
g_assert_not_reached ();

If the replacement didn't make any changes, we should return NULL, no? At least so we test the fallback behaviour.

if (ret)
return ret;
/* Fall through */
}

I'd say we add an else here. I.e. if translate_pathname is active, use_ostree_convention has no effect. Otherwise, it's odd thinking that there's a difference between returning NULL and returning the exact same string.

For rpm-ostree, I want to move RPM files in `/boot` to `/usr/lib/ostree-boot`.
