This changes the semantics of the option (which is renamed too) to be a
yes/no value with the special additional value "force" as this allows
by-hash to be disabled even if the repository indicates it would be
supported and is more in line with our other yes/no options like pdiff
which disable themselves if no support can be detected.
The feature wasn't documented so far and hasn't reached a (un)stable
release yet, so changing it without trying too hard to keep
compatibility seems okay.

Some targets like Contents-udeb are special-needs targets. Shipping the
configuration snippet for them is okay, but they shouldn't be downloaded
by default. Forcing the user to enable targets by uncommenting targets
is wrong and this would still not really solve the problem completely as
even if you want to download some -udebs it will probably not be for all
sources you have enabled, so having the possibility of disabling a
target by default, but giving the user the option to enable it on a
per-source entry basis is better.

Some additional files like 'Contents' are very big and should therefore
kept compressed on the disk, which apt-file did in the past. It also
implemented pdiff patching of these files by un- and recompressing these
files on-the-fly, with this commit we can do the same – but we can do
this in both pdiff patching styles (client and server merging) and
secured by hashes.
Hashes are in so far slightly complicated as we can't compare the hashes
of the compressed files as we might compress them differently than the
server would (different compressor versions, options, …), so we must
compare the hashes of the uncompressed content.
While this commit has changes in public headers, the classes it changes
are marked as hidden, so nobody can use them directly, which means the
ABI break is internal only.

This updates the documentation for a change which actually happened in
c2a4a8dded2dfb56dbcab9689b6cb4b96c9999b6 already. The acquire system
expects the $(SITE) to be there (e.g. for mirror rewriting) so we are
better of prefixing it automatically than giving frontends the chance to
forget it. There is no point in not showing $(SITE) first anyway.

Disabling pdiffs can be useful occasionally, like if you have a fast
local mirror where the download doesn't matter, but still want to use it
for non-local mirrors. Also, some users might prefer it to only use it
for very big indextargets like Contents.

'files' is a bit too generic as a name for a command usually only used
programmatically (if at all) by developers, so instead of "wasting" this
generic name for this we use "indextargets" which is actually the name
of the datastructure the displayed data is stored in.
Along with this rename the config options are renamed accordingly.

Selecting targets based on the Release they belong to isn't to
unrealistic. In fact, it is assumed to be the most used case so it is
made the default especially as this allows to bundle another thing we
have to be careful with: Filenames and only showing targets we have
acquired.

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.

We still need an API for the targets, so slowly prepare the IndexTargets
to let them take this job.

First pass at making the acquire system capable of downloading files
based on configuration rather than hardcoded entries. It is now possible
to instruct 'deb' and 'deb-src' sources.list lines to download more than
just Packages/Translation-* and Sources files. Details on how to do that
can be found in the included documentation file.
