Fixed missing endian swaps in several places both in package
creation and package reading. Also made sure that the digest
used for signature checking always comes out the same regardless
of host byte order (previously the signature would only be
compatible with the byte order it was created on and fail
anywhere else).

fixes commit "del: fix --rdepends" to not delete provided names
if not using --rdepends

fixes #10898

Fixes commit d5ff6c96 "support --from=FROMSPEC". The condition
to generate the reverse dependencies changed causing it not to
be always generated. Fix this by unconditionally generating it.

fixes #10896

Seems originally it was indeed -L, but was inadvertently changed
to -l in 2.12_rc1 in options refactoring commit 1d7123d8. Since
already the 2.12-stable uses -l, update just documentation.

fixes commit 6ded6978 "io: make apk_blob_from_* return error"

Ignore any link that has the busybox binary as target.
These links are created by a trigger script and not managed by apk.

Do not attempt to get xattrs from symlinks. Their extraction is not
supported either.

Do not use alloca.

At least in kernel packages for aarch64 we were running into
the 8000 file hard limit in linux-devel. Increase it until we
have a better solution in place.

There will be additional metadata in the package structure that
is user settable. Allow setting them via --info also.

Allow omitting loading of system installed database and system
repositories for the commands that operate on package indexes
only.

Handle file: URLs correctly, and don't do linkat() syscall if
it is a remote repository.

Also account the file size to progress always.

This will also fix "search" to display one match from each principal
pkgname group. "search -e vim" will now show both vim and gvim.

This change adds two manpages: apk-v2(5) and apk-v3(5). These pages
describe the v2 and v3 file formats respectively, as I currently
understand them.

Only the leading zeroes should be ignored. Handle properly if the
version component is actually zero.
