repair: determine what upgrade will do
This commit introduces code for determining what actions/improvements
an upgrade should perform.
The "upgradefindimprovements" function introduces a mechanism to
return a list of improvements that can be made to a repository.
Each improvement is effectively an action that an upgrade will
perform. Associated with each of these improvements is metadata
that will be used to inform users what's wrong and what an
upgrade will do.
Each "improvement" is categorized as a "deficiency" or an
"optimization." TBH, I'm not thrilled about the terminology and
am receptive to constructive bikeshedding. The main difference
between a "deficiency" and an "optimization" is a deficiency
is always corrected (if it deviates from the current config) and
an "optimization" is an optional action that goes above and beyond
to improve the state of the repository (usually by requiring more
CPU during upgrade).
Our initial set of improvements identifies missing repository
requirements, a single, easily correctable problem with
changelog storage, and a set of "optimizations" related to delta
recalculation.
The main "upgraderepo" function has been expanded to handle
improvements. It queries for the list of improvements and determines
which of them will run based on the current repository state and user
I went through numerous iterations of the output format before
settling on a ReST-inspired definition list format. (I used
bulleted lists in the first submission of this commit and could
not get it to format just right.) Even with the various iterations,
I'm still not super thrilled with the format. But, this is a debug*
command, so that should mean we can refine the output without BC
concerns.
