Instead of just using uint32_t, which would allow you to
assign e.g. a map_pointer&lt;Version&gt; to a map_pointer&lt;Package&gt;,
use our own smarter struct that has strict type checking.

We allow creating a map_pointer from a nullptr, and we allow
comparing map_pointer to nullptr, which also deals with comparisons
against 0 which are often used, as 0 will be implictly converted
to nullptr.

This adds a simple way to lookup binaries by a source package,
but this adds all binaries into one list, even with different
source versions. Be careful.

This makes use of the a function GetHashString() that returns
the specific hash string. We also need to implement another overload
of Add() for signed chars with sizes, so the existing users do not
require reinterpret_cast everywhere.

<title>Avoid extra out-of-cache hash table deduplication for package names</title>

We were de-duplicating package name strings in StoreString, but also
deduplicating most of them by them being in groups, so we had extra
hash table lookups that could be avoided in NewGroup().

To continue deduplicating names across binary packages and source
packages, insert groups for source packages as well. This is also
a good first step in allowing efficient lookup of packages by source
package - we can extend Group later by a list of SourceVersion objects,
or alternatively, simply add a by-source chain into pkgCache::Version.

This change improves performance by about 10% (913 to 814 ms), while
having no significant overhead on the cache size:

The error messages say only which package it was trying to provide, but
not which package &amp; version tried it which can be misleading as to which
package (version) is the offender.

<title>debListParser: Avoid native arch lookup in ParseDepends</title>

<id>urn:sha1:563fedea263361b0786303f58dccc1a9a733e1d9</id>
<content type='text'>
We called low-level ParseDepends without an architecture each time,
which means each call looked up the native architecture. Store the
native architecture in the class and use that when calling low-level
ParseDepends from the high-level ParseDepends().

This improves performance for a cache build from 2.7 to 2.5 seconds
for me.

Also avoid a call when stripping multiarch, as the native architecture
is passed in.
