 * Regression test suite.

 * Fix comments marked "XXX".

 * Clean up out of date comments.

 * Consistent indentation.

   this. Errors and error messages must be usable by libopkg frontends.
   Don't try to use errno after its been clobbered by other libc calls.

 * Remove dead and duplicate code. Refactor duplicated functionality.

 * Remove pkg_info_preinstall_check().

 * Reduce memory used per pkg_t and peak memory use in general.

 * #includes are a mess.

 * Refactor opkg_install_pkg() into more precise functions.

 * pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate() is linear search O(P*PN)
   and is slow (frequently called).
      P provider
      PN pkgs in a provider
   It can be O(P) if a hash table is used.

 * Update libbb.
