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.
