Allow specifying an alternative path to the InRelease file, so
you can have multiple versions of a repository, for example.
Enabling this option disables fallback to Release and Release.gpg,
so setting it to InRelease can be used to ensure that only that
will be tried.
We add two test cases: One for checking that it works, and another
for checking that the fallback does not happen.

Same reasoning as with the previous commit for http with the added
benefit of moving the hard to discover and untranslated example config
into a manpage which could be translated.
document http options in new apt-transport-http manpage2018-01-03T17:55:41ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2017-11-22T18:39:31Zurn:sha1:956145444e1a3b7f5e660f71904711f4ea5bd262
We had documentation for the http transport in our "catch-all" apt.conf
manpage, but it seems benefitial to document transports in their own
manpage instead of pushing them all into one.
allow multivalue fields in deb822 sources to be folded2017-11-19T16:24:41ZDavid Kalnischkiesdavid@kalnischkies.de2017-11-16T23:46:34Zurn:sha1:7fba4e0df1768703ce657d8bf8200472c2dd825f
The documentation said "spaces", but there is no real reason to be so
strict and only allow spaces to separate values as that only leads to
very long lines if e.g. multiple URIs are specified which are again hard
to deal with from a user PoV which the deb822 format is supposed to
avoid. It also deals with multiple consecutive spaces and strange things
like tabs users will surely end up using in the real world.
The old behviour on encountering folded lines is the generation of URIs
which end up containing all these whitespace characters which tends to
mess really bad with output and further processing.
