tests: support spaces in path and TMPDIR

This doesn't allow all tests to run cleanly, but it at least allows to write tests which could run successfully in such environments. Git-Dch: Ignore

Replace --force-yes by various options starting with --allow

This enables more fine grained control over such exceptions.

move APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections handling to MarkDelete

2015-08-10T15:27:59Z

Having the handling in MarkInstall means that it just effects installation of the metapackage, but if the dependencies change the new dependencies aren't protected (and the old dependencies are still protected for no 'reason'). Having it in MarkDelete means that if a metapackage is sheduled for removal all its currently installed dependencies are marked as manual, which helps against both as in this case there is no new/old and additionally if a user decides the installation of a metapackage was wrong he can just remove it explicitely avoid the manual marking entirely.

mark again deps of pkgs in APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections as manual

In 50ef3344c3afaaf9943142906b2f976a0337d264 (and similar for other branches), while 'fixing' the edgecase of a package being in multiple sections (e.g. moved from libs to oldlibs in newer releases) I accidently broke the feature itself completely by operating on the package itself and no longer on its dependencies… The behaviour isn't ideal in multiple ways, which we are hopefully able to fix with new ideas as mentioned in the buglog, but until then the functionality of this "hack" should be restored.
