The bugreport is more conservative in asking for a conditional, but
given that this is a message intended to be read by users to be run by
users we should suggest using a command intended to be used by users.

And while we are at, add sudo to the message – conditional of course.

Not all tests work yet, most notable the cdrom tests, but those require
changes in libapt itself to have a proper fix and what we have fixed so
far is good enough progress for now.

<title>select kernels to protect from autoremove based on Debian version</title>

This is basically a rewrite of the script with the general idea of
finding the Debian version of the installed kernels – as multiple
flavours will have the same Debian version – select the two newest of
them and translate them back to versions found in package names.

This way we avoid e.g. kernel and kernel-rt to use up the protected
slots even through they are basically the same kernel (just a different
flavour) so it is likely that if kernel doesn't work for some reason,
kernel-rt will not either.

This also deals with foreign kernel packages, kernels on hold and partly
installed kernels (in case multiple kernels are installed in the same
apt run) in a hopefully sensible way.

<title>implement a more generic ShowList method</title>

apt-get is displaying various lists of package names, which until now it
was building as a string before passing it to ShowList, which inserted
linebreaks at fitting points and showed a title if needed, but it never
really understood what it was working with. With the help of C++11 the
new generic knows not only what it works with, but generates the list on
the fly rather than asking for it and potentially discarding parts of
the input (= the non-default verbose display). It also doubles as a test
for how usable the CacheSets are with C++11.

(Not all callers are adapted yet.)

We use test{success,failure} now all over the place in the framework, so
its only consequencial to do this in the situations in which we test for
a specific output as well.

Metapackages like "linux-image-amd64" are otherwise matched by our
extraction as well, which later on can't be successfully compared via
dpkg --compare-versions as the 'amd64' bit isn't a version number.
(Luckily none of our architectures starts with a digit.)

This was broken by me in 0.9.16 as I moved a shell-glob matcher to a
regex-based one which has slightly different semantics regarding '*'.

As we deal with regex matchers here the dots are treated as wildcards if
we don't take care of escaping them. Not very likely that this could be
a real-world problem, but just to be sure.

kfreebsd as well as hurd kernel packages call the postinst script as
well so we just need to enable the correct parsing for installed
packages and disable the "protect every version" hammer for them.
