Implement switch WAL and archive check in C but leave the rest in Perl for now.
The main idea was to have some real integration tests for the new database code so the rest of the migration can wait.

Migrate functionality from the Perl Db module to C. For now this is just enough to implement the WAL switch check.
Add the dbGet() helper function to get Db objects easily.
Create macros in harnessPq to make writing pq scripts easier by grouping commonly used functions together.

Sometimes it is useful to get at the internals of a module that is not being tested for coverage in order to provide coverage for another module that is being tested. The include directive allows this.
Update modules that had previously been added to coverage that only need to be included.
This direct interface to libpq allows simple queries to be run against PostgreSQL and supports timeouts.
Testing is performed using a shim that can use scripted responses to test all aspects of the client code. The shim will be very useful for testing backup scenarios on complex topologies.

The local process is now entirely migrated to C. Since all major I/O operations are performed in the local process, the vast majority of I/O is now performed in C.

Discard all data passed to the filter. Useful for calculating size/checksum on a remote system when no data needs to be returned.
Update ioReadDrain() to automatically use the IoSink filter.
No new Perl code is being developed, so these tools are just taking up time and making migrations to newer platforms harder. There are only a few Perl tests remaining with full coverage so the coverage tool does not warn of loss of coverage in most cases.
Remove both tools and associated libraries.
Some HTTP error tests were failing after the upgrade to openssl 1.1.1, though the rest of the unit and integration tests worked fine. This seemed to be related to the very small messages used in the error testing, but it pointed to an issue with the code not being fully compliant, made worse by auto-retry being enabled by default.
Disable auto-retry and implement better error handling to bring the code in line with openssl recommendations.
There's no evidence this is a problem in the field, but having all the tests pass seems like a good idea and the new code is certainly more robust.
Coverage will be complete in the next commit when openssl 1.1.1 is introduced.
Maintaining the storage layer/drivers in two languages is burdensome. Since the integration tests require the Perl storage layer/drivers we'll need them even after the core code is migrated to C. Create an interface layer so the Perl code can be removed and new storage drivers/features introduced without adding Perl equivalents.
The goal is to move the integration tests to C so this interface will eventually be removed. That being the case, the interface was designed for maximum compatibility to ease the transition. The result looks a bit hacky but we'll improve it as needed until it can be retired.
Amend commit 434cd832 to error when the db history in archive.info and backup.info do not match.
The Perl code would attempt to reconcile the history by matching on system id and version but we are not planning to migrate that code to C. It's possible that there are users with mismatches but if so they should have been getting errors from info for the last six months. It's easy enough to manually fix these files if there are any mismatches in the field.

If the file is compressible (i.e. not encrypted or already compressed) it can be marked as such in storageNewRead()/storageNewWrite(). If the file is being read from/written to a remote it will be compressed in transit using gzip.
Simplify filter group handling by having the IoRead/IoWrite objects create the filter group automatically. This removes the need for a lot of NULL checking and has a negligible effect on performance since a filter group needs to be created eventually unless the source file is missing.
Allow filters to be created using a VariantList so filter parameters can be passed to the remote.
This implementation duplicates the functionality of the Perl code but does so with different logic and includes full unit tests.
Along the way at least one bug was fixed, see issue #748.

This filter exactly mimics the behavior of the Perl filter so is a drop-in replacement.
The filter is not integrated yet since it requires the Perl-to-C storage layer interface coming in a future commit.
This cache manages multiple http clients and returns one to the caller that is not busy. It is the responsibility of the caller to indicate when they are done with a client. If returnContent is set then the client will automatically be marked done.
Also add special handing for HEAD requests to recognize that content-length is informational only and no content is expected.
Allows listing repo paths/files from the command-line, to be used primarily for testing and debugging.
This command is internal-only so the interface may change at any time without notice.
Not all storage types support paths as a physical thing that must be created/destroyed. Add a feature to determine which drivers use paths and simplify the driver API as much as possible given that knowledge and by implementing as much path logic as possible in the Storage object.
Remove the ignoreMissing parameter from pathSync() since it is not used and makes little sense.
Create a standard list of error messages for the drivers to use and apply them where the code was modified -- there is plenty of work still to be done here.
This is just the part of restore run by the local helper processes, not the entire command.
Even so, various optimizations in the code (like pipelining and optimizations for zero-length files) should make the restore command faster on object stores.
Most of the *Free() functions are pretty generic so add macros to make creating them as easy as possible.
Create a distinction between *Free() functions that the caller uses to free memory and callbacks that free third-party resources. There are a number of cases where a driver needs to free resources but does not need a normal *Free() because it is handled by the interface.
Add common/object.h for macros that make object maintenance easier. This pattern can also be used for many more object functions.
Remove "File" and "Driver" from object names so they are shorter and easier to keep consistent.
Also remove the "driver" directory so storage implementations are visible directly under "storage".
The function pointer casting used when creating drivers made changing interfaces difficult and led to slightly divergent driver implementations. Unit testing caught production-level errors but there were a lot of small issues and the process was harder than it should have been.
Use void pointers instead so that no casts are required. Introduce the THIS_VOID and THIS() macros to make dealing with void pointers a little safer.
Since we don't want to expose void pointers in header files, driver functions have been removed from the headers and the various driver objects return their interface type. This cuts down on accessor methods and the vast majority of those functions were not being used. Move functions that are still required to .intern.h.
Remove the special "C" crypto functions that were used in libc and instead use the standard interface.
The function provides all the file/path/link information required to build a backup manifest.
Also update storageInfo() to provide the same information for a single file.
At the same time change the way that load constructors work (and are named) so that Ini objects do not persist after the constructors complete.
infoArchiveSave() is excluded from this commit since it is just a trivial call to infoPgSave() and won't be required soon.
In most cases the JSON type is known so this is more efficient than converting to Variant first, both in terms of memory and time.
Also rename some of the existing functions for consistency.
Removed the "anchor" parameter because it was never used in any calls in the Perl code so it was just a dead parameter that always defaulted to true.

This was not an intentional feature in Perl, but it works, so it makes sense to implement the same syntax in C.
This is a break from other places where a -port option is explicitly supplied, so it may make sense to support both styles going forward. This commit does not address that, however.

This new implementation should behave exactly like the old Perl code with the exception of updated log messages.
Remove as much of the Perl code as possible without breaking other commands.
We deal with some pretty big lists in archive-push so a nested-loop anti-join looked like it would not be efficient enough.
This merge anti-join should do the trick even though both lists must be sorted first.
Now that repositories are writable the storage drivers that don't yet support file writes need to be updated to do so.
Note that the part size for multi-part upload has not been defined as a proper constant. This will become an option in the near future so it doesn't seem worth creating a constant that we might then forget to remove.
Logging was being enable on local/remote processes even if --log-subprocess was not specified, so fix that.
Also, make sure that stderr is enabled at error level as it was on Perl. This helps expose error information for debugging.
For remotes, suppress log and lock paths since these are not applicable on remote hosts. These options should be set in the local config if they need to be overridden.
This driver borrows heavily from the Posix driver.
At this point the only difference is that CIFS does not allow explicit directory fsyncs so they need to be suppressed. At some point the CIFS diver will also omit link support.
With the addition of this driver repository storage is now writable.
The same test configurations are run on all four test VMs, which seems a real waste of resources.
Vary the tests per VM to increase coverage while reducing the total number of tests. Be sure to include each major feature (remote, s3, encryption) in each VM at least once.

The C local is only used for C commands in the main process.
Some tweaking of the existing protocolGet() command was required. Originally the idea was to share the function for local and remote requests but the differences (as in Perl) were too great to make that practical.
