using new `@comment DEPORIGIN:...' directive. This would allow us to make
many neat things including:
- easier binary upgrades;
- source upgrades without using external tools by simply extending
bsd.port.mk and pkg_install tools;
- mixed-mode upgrades (source + binary);
- depreciate and deorbit silly +REQUIRED_BY files in the near future.
This feature is no-op until appropriate bsd.port.mk patch is committed, and
even when it is already committed packages generated will remain 100%
compatible with old set of pkg_install tools (module all those neat
features, of course).

non-backward compatible changes in the format of packing list and handle
them gracefully;
- fix a longstanding issue with symlinks handling. Instead of recording
checksum for the file symlink points to, record checksum for the value
returned by readlink(2). For backward compatibility increase packing list
format minor version number and provide a fallback to a previous behaviour,
if package in question was created with older version of pkg_* tools;

using it for auditing purposes.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
pkg_manage silently dumps core, pkg_info claims about them to
stderr, which makes very difficult to find what directory cause it via
tons of pkg_info -a output. I found solution which covers both variants,
now pkg_info claims about missing files to stdout among valid output
with ERROR: prefix. It heals pkg_manage to not dump core and makes
easy to find errors in pkg_info -a output by simple /ERROR 'more' command.
Index descriptions are limited to MAXINDEXSIZE (60) chars. Any description
beyond that is truncated. Also, only the first line is displayed as well.
This allows pkg_info -a -I to be formated in two columns with one line
per package for easy reading.

-q turns on "quiet" mode, where informational headers and such are not
dumped, just the information.
-L Shows full pathnames of files comprising a package. With -q,
this can be useful for doing fileset operations, such as
"du -s `pkg_info -q -L foo_bin`" to see how much space package
"foo_bin" is taking up.
