This was automated with sed and git-clang-format, and then I had to
fix up the top of policy.cc by hand as git-clang-format accidentally
indented it by two spaces.

This introduces a new line:

    The following upgrades have been deferred due to phasing

This is any kept back package that is also phasing. This may
not be 100% accurate as we have kept it back due to other reasons
in an install command, for example, but we don't track for which
packages we applied phasing in reality.

If additional packages are kept back that are not phasing, show
a a notice

"N: Some packages may have been kept back due to phasing."

<title>Support -a for setting host architecture in apt-get source -b</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2845127968cda30be8423e1d3a24dae0e797bcc8</id>
<content type='text'>
It is documented and the code supports it, but the command line parsing
actually refuses -a/--host-architecture=arch … probably a sign how much
"apt-get source -b" is (not) used in practice.

Setting via -o APT::Get::Host-Architecture=arch (which -a is just a
shorthand for) works as it did before and can be used if backward
compatibility is important.

<title>Do not store .diff_Index files in update</title>

<content type='text'>
Nowadays we only download the index file if we have a non-current file
on disk which we want to patch. If that is the case, any index file for
patches we could have stored is by definition outdated, so storing those
files just takes up disk space.

At least, that is the case if we have a Release file – if we don't this
commit introduces a needless redownload for such repositories but such
repositories are an error by default and if they can't be bothered to
provide a Release file its very unlikely they actually ship diffs, so
adding detection code for this seems pointless at best.

The implementation as-is as various smaller/esoteric bugs and
inconsistencies like apt-get not supporting them, the option -s
being supported in code but not accepted on the command line,
the regex not escaping the dot before the file extension and
exposing more implementation details to public headers than we
actually need.

Also comes with a small test case to ensure it actually works.

ending with Release, Release.gpg, and InRelease.

<title>Downgrade unmerged-usr from error to two warnings</title>

<content type='text'>
One warning will be issued before the Y/n prompt, the other will
be issued at the end after package installs have been attempted
or if there were other failures, such that the last line you see
is warnings about unmerged-usr

I do not anticipate this to be the final version either, but
there we go.

As of bookworm, merged-usr is mandatory, and people got caught
in the crosshairs of the dpkg fsys-unmessusr debacle and inadvertently
reverted back to an unmerged configuration and continue to remain
on an unsupported system unknowingly.

Help them by erroring out when they are installing packages on /,
they are not in a chroot, and a usrmerge package is available.
