If we call dpkg inside a chroot we have to ensure that the temporary
directory we construct to call dpkg --recursive is inside the chroot and
that we strip the path to the chroot from the directory name we pass to
dpkg.

Note that the added test succeeds before and (hopefully) after as we
can't really chroot here or fiddle with the needed settings as we are
already setting up apt to work with a quasi-chroot. The test perhaps
helps in ensuring we don't break it too much in the future though.

(Broken five years (and one day) ago this seems to have an immense user
 base at the moment, but it might in the future via mmdebstrap)

The read-only /dev/null was duplicated to stdout and stderr, causing writes to those descriptors to fail:
[pid   260] openat(AT_FDCWD, "/dev/null", O_RDONLY) = 7
[pid   260] dup2(7, 0)                  = 0
[pid   260] close(5)                    = 0
[pid   260] dup2(6, 1)                  = 1
[pid   260] dup2(7, 2)                  = 2
[pid   260] write(2, "Chrooting into ", 15) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
[pid   260] chroot("/chroot/")          = 0

../apt-pkg/init.cc:137:39: note: use array indexing to silence this warning

We have a few instances of that &amp; it should be reasonably clear that we are not
actually trying to append here, but ignoring or silencing this warning with an
override is far more costly than just using what clang suggests here.

<title>Show absolute time while waiting for lock instead of %, rework message</title>

Showing a percentage for a timeout is pretty non-standard. Rework the
progress class so it can show an absolute progress (currently hardcoded
to use seconds as a unit). If there is a timeout (aka if it's not the
maximum long long unsigned -1llu), then show the timeout, otherwise
just count up seconds, e.g.

Waiting for cache lock: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 33842 (apt)... 1/120s

or

Waiting for cache lock: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend. It is held by process 33842 (apt)... 1s

Also improve the error message to use "Waiting for cache lock: %s" instead of "... (%s)", as having
multiple sentences inside parenthesis is super weird, as is having two closing parens.

We pass the information via _config, as that's reasonably easy and avoids
ABI hackage. It also provides an interesting debugging tool for other
kinds of progress.

This is a rework of !6 with additional stuff for the frontend
lock, so we can lock the frontend lock and then keep looping
over dpkg lock.

We need to unlock in the reverse order of locking in order
to get useful behavior.

This avoids a lot of problems from local installations of
scripting languages and other stuff in /usr/local for which
maintainer scripts are not prepared.

We forgot to set the variable for the selection changes. Let's
set it for that and some other dpkg calls.
