GC remnants of pipe support, long gone.

move to use v5.36;
tested by me over the last few weeks, and tb@
also fixed a "manual install" bug properly reported by tb@

aside that there should be *no functional change*.

aside that there should be *no functional change*.
If you see any message like "hey, the number of params is wrong"
it is a fringe case I didn't run into and should be easy to fix.

allow search objects to say "keep_all" and make PackageRepositoryLists
aware of that for match_locations

Refactor locator code so it's a proper object.
allow fw_update to short-circuit entirely, thus the specific
treatment of paths is actually less of a special case,
and the code that reaches into /etc

allow fw_update to short-circuit entirely, thus the specific

and the code that reaches into /etc/installurl is no longer used
at all in that case.

problem noticed by mlarkin@

gc old code, from Jean-Philippe Ouellet

zap scp urls from quirks update for fw_update

handle failures from ports tree with more care.
this does avoid infinite loops in case of wrong plists.
necessary since print-plist-with-depends CAN fail...

initial scaffolding for @rcscript: for now, acts like normal files,
but allow absolute pathnames (treat that as an implicit @cwd).

pass (and save) state around in Repository-related stuff.

allow say and errsay to work without parameters, as it's ways common.
create verbose_system up in state, because it makes sense without verbose.

whitespace cleanup

fix "deduplicate" code.
allow prepend as well as add

whitespace fixes

move signal catching up, so we can clean repos and temp files at once.
Fix main program try/catch: signal message should use standard form so
it gets caught.

slightly more complex repolist, to allow for:
- caching locations
- avoid readding known paths (done thx to unique repo objects)

move pipe handling into RepositoryList

repositories no longer need match

synch with my new style search/location changes
It's likely there will be some fallout, but it's getting a bit too large
to keep around.
This does kill a few very old oddities as well.

and I forgot this one

don't pass srcpath around, since we don't use it.

kill "available" routine, which is no longer used.

move the retry code down at the http/ftp repository level, where it belongs.

tidy

remove some specialness of the Filtering stuff.

kill unused stuff
