Dag-Erling Smørgrav a1bb3f482a Introduce the (undocumented) variable fetchRestartCalls, which controls whether
or not interrupted system calls will be restarted. This fixes a bug where
fetch(1) would hang (potentially forever) if a server stopped responding,
because the signal handler would absorb the user's efforts to interrupt the
transfer.

This is the new fetch(3) library, which is to replace the ftpio(3)
library and provide a new, unified backend for all fetch(1),
pkg_add(1) and sysinstall(8).

Note that this is very much work in progress. It compiles (with a few
warnings), but there is much left to be implemented. Comments, patches
etc. of all kinds are welcome, but please don't commit anything
without talking to me first.
