64e90b3614 Add support for HTTP/1.0 Persistent Connections to phttpget. Requests are
be marked as HTTP/1.1 but "Connection: Keep-Alive" is added; this convinces
HTTP/1.0 servers and proxies to hold the TCP connection open despite not
being able to use HTTP pipelining.

This dramatically cuts down on the number of TCP connections (and thus port
numbers) used by portsnap when talking to an HTTP/1.0 proxy (e.g., squid),
and has the side benefit of improving performance in those cases.

682aa440b5 Use some features of sh(1) which I didn't know about until today ("read"
can read two variables at once; and suffix pattern deletion) to make the
extract command fork fewer processes.

With the portsnap snapshot and the ports tree in swap-backed memory
disks on my 1.4GHz laptop, this reduces 178800 processes and 195/56/126
seconds of real/user/sys time to 44600 processes and 103/34/60 seconds.

6a63b482f7 The approach portsnap uses of "pick a random HTTP mirror" doesn't
interact very nicely with HTTP proxies: Since proxies do not know
that all the files on portsnap1.freebsd.org are identical to the
files with the same names on portsnap2.freebsd.org, said proxies end
up downloading and storing files in duplicate.

This commit uses the HTTP_PROXY environment variable, if set, to
generate a random number seed for use in selecting a mirror.  This
means that if several systems all have the same HTTP_PROXY value set,
they will ask the proxy to fetch files from the same mirror (unless
that mirror fails, in which case all the systems will use the same
second choice, et cetera).

Portsnap still doesn't interact very well with "transparent" HTTP
proxies, but there's nothing I can do about those.

160fd830be Instead of selecting a mirror and failing if it is inaccessible, keep
track of which mirrors we have tried and try a different mirror if we
fail when trying to download the SSL public key or the snapshot
signature.

Failures later in the download process will not result in switching to
a different mirror, for two reasons:
1. If is very unlikely that a mirror will fail partway through the
process of downloading updates.
2. If we switched from a more recently updated mirror to a less
recently updated mirror partway through the download process, we would
end up failing anyway because we would be trying to fetch files which
the second mirror didn't have yet.

4c165daa8d Teach portsnap how to ignore unwanted parts of the ports tree. A line
of the form "REFUSE foo" in portsnap.conf will result in parts of the
tree matching "^foo" being (a) not extracted by "portsnap extract", (b)
not updated by "portsnap update", and (c) not having any patches or new
ports downloaded by "portsnap fetch" or "portsnap cron". The example
shown in portsnap.conf demonstrates ignoring all the language categories.

As mentioned in portsnap.conf.5, the use of an imcomplete ports tree is
not officially supported; but this is something which many users have
requested, so I'm adding it anyway.

157c398c7e Correctly exit from extract_run() and update_run() if files needed are
missing from ${WORKDIR}/files/.

This bug was caused by the astonishing interaction of "return" and
pipelines; in the following code, the "return" does not exit the
function, but instead exits the subshell which was spawned for the last
element of the pipeline; consequently, the output produced is "foo".

foo() {
	echo bar | while read baz; do
		if [ ${baz} = "bar" ]; then
			return 1
		fi
	done

	echo foo
}
