On launchpad #1558484 a user reports that @ in the authentication tokens
parsing of sources.list isn't working in an older (precise) version. It
isn't the recommended way of specifying passwords and co (auth.conf is),
but we can at least test for regressions (and in this case test at all…
who was that "clever" boy disabling a test with exit……… oh, nevermind.

SHA1 is not reasonably secure anymore, so we should not consider it
usable anymore. The test suite is adjusted to account for this.

APT has a different understanding than dpkg (#748936) what matches and
what doesn't match an architecture specification as it isn't converting
back (and forward) to Debian triplets. That has to eventually be solved
some way or the other, but until that happens we change the matching in
apt so that porters can continue their work on non-gnu libc-ports even
if policy doesn't specify that yet (and dpkg just supporting it "by
accident" via triplets).

The initial patch was reformatted, fixed in terms of patterns containing
"any-any", dealing with expanding an arch without libc to gnu while a
pattern expands libc to any, the parsedepends test was fixed (the new
if's were inserted one step too early) and another test just for the
specifications added.

Closes: #812212
Thanks: Bálint Réczey for initial patch

Avoid the dependency on a specific current path for the tar test and
ensure that _system is correctly initialized (gcc-6 runs into a segfault
otherwise and with it fixed starts to depend on the multi-arch
configuration of the running system… not good).

<title>string_view: Drop constexpr constructor for standard compatibility</title>

APT::StringView is supposed to be a temporary measure, until support
for the standardized string_view is widely available. Introducing
additional unstandardized features just makes porting to the
standard version harder.

The constexpr constructor also won't have any real effect on most
systems, as the compiler will happily optimise the strlen() call
away for constant strings.

APT usually deals with perfectly formatted files generated automatically
be other programs – and as it has to parse multiple MBs of such files it
tries to be fast rather than forgiving.

This was always a problem if we reused this parser for files with a
deb822 syntax which are mostly written by hand however, like
apt_preferences or the deb822-style sources as these can include stray
newlines and more importantly comments all over the place.

As a stopgap we had pkgUserTagSection which deals at least with comments
before and after a given stanza, but comments in between weren't really
supported and now that we support parsing debian/control for e.g.
build-dep we face the full comment problem e.g. with comments inbetween
multi-line fields (like Build-Depends).

We can't easily deal with this on the pkgTagSection level as the interface
gives access to 'raw' char-pointers for performance reasons so we would
need to optionally add a buffer here on which we could remove comments
to hand out pointers into this buffer instead. The interface is quite
large already and supports writing stanzas as well, which does not
support comments at all either. So while in future it might make sense
to have a parser setup which deals with and keeps comments in this
commit we opt for the simpler solution for now: We officially declare
that pkgTagSection does not support comments and instead expect the
caller to deal with them, which in our case is pkgTagFile:

pkgTagFile is extended with an additional mode which can deal with
comments by dropping them from the buffer which will later form the
input of pkgTagSection. The actual implementation is slightly more
complex than this sentence suggests at first on one hand to have good
performance and on the other to allow jumping directly to stanzas with
offsets collected in a previous run (like our cache generation does it
for example).

Regression introduced in 8710a36a01c0cb1648926792c2ad05185535558e,
but such fields are unlikely in practice as it is just as simple to not
have a field at all with the same result of not having a value.

<title>Fix FileUtlTest.GetTempDir failure when run as root</title>

Testing /usr as TMPDIR assumes that GetTempDir() cannot use it
because it cannot write to it; this is true for non-root users, but
not so much for root.

Since root can access everything, perform this particular test case
only when not running as root.
