implement 'apt-get files' to access index targets
Downloading additional files is only half the job. We still need a way to allow external tools to know where the files are they requested for download given that we don't want them to choose their own location. 'apt-get files' is our answer to this showing by default in a deb822 format information about each IndexTarget with the potential to filter the records based on lines and an option to change the output format. The command serves also as an example on how to get to this information via libapt.

+
+# Accessing files
+
+Do NOT hardcode specific file locations, names or compression types in
+your application! You will notice that the configuration options give
+you no choice over where the downloaded files will be stored. This is by
+design so multiple applications can download and use the same file
+rather than each and every one of them potentially downloads and uses
+its own copy somewhere on disk.
+
+"apt-get files" can be used to get the location as well as other
+information about all files downloaded (aka: you will see Packages,
+Sources and Translation-* files here as well). Provide a line of the
+default output format as parameter to filter out all entries which do
+not have such a line. With --format, you can further more define your
+own output style. The variables are what you see in the output, just all
+uppercase and wrapped in $(), as in the configuration file.
+
+To get all the filenames of all Translation-en files you can e.g. call:
+ apt-get files --format '$(FILENAME)' "Created-By: Translations" "Language: en"
+
+Accessing this information via libapt is done by reading the
+sources.lists (pkgSourceList), iterating over the metaIndex objects this
+creates and calling GetIndexTargets() on them. See the sourcecode of
+"apt-get files" for a complete example.
+
+Remarks on the available fields:
+* MetaKey, ShortDesc, Description, Site, Release: as defined
+ by the configuration and described further above.
+* Created-By: configuration entity responsible for this target
+* Target-Of: type of the sources.list entry
+* URI, Repo-URI: avoid using. Contains potentially username/password.
+ Prefer 'Site', especially for display.
+* Filename: The mentioned file doesn't need to exist, e.g. because the
+ file wasn't downloaded yet – or it does exist compressed. libapt users
+ are encouraged to use FileFd to open such files as it can handle
+ decompression transparently.
+* Trusted: As of the last 'apt-get update' call denoting if e.g. apt-get
+ would print the unauthenticated warning while installing packages
+ mentioned in this file (example assumes Packages file) [Not really
+ a property of the target itself, but of the metaIndex].
+* Optional: Decodes the option of the same name from the configuration.
+ Note that it is using 'yes' and 'no' instead of 'true' and 'false'.
+* Language, Architecture, Component: as defined further above, but with
+ the catch that they might be missing if they don't effect the target
+ (aka: They weren't used while evaluating the MetaKey template).
+
+Again, additional fields might be visible in certain implementation, but
+you should avoid using them and instead talk to us about a portable
+implementation.
+
+# Multiple application requiring the same files
+
+It is highly encouraged that applications talk to each other and to us
+about which files they require. It is usually best to have a common
+package ship the configuration needed to get the files, but specific
+needs might require specific solutions. Again: talk to us.
+
+# Acquiring files not mentioned in the Release file
+
+You can't. This is by design as these files couldn't be verified to not
+be modified in transit, corrupted by the download process or simple if
+they are present at all on the server, which would require apt to probe
+for them. APT did this in the past for legacy reasons, we do not intend
+to go back to these dark times.
+
+This is also why you can't request files from a different server. It
+would have the additional problem that this server might not even be
+accessible (e.g. proxy settings) or that local sources (file:/, cdrom:/)
+start requesting online files…
+
+In other words: We would be opening Pandora's box.
