All the methods in this module will need to be implemented via the command-line in order to get rid of LibC, so the first step is to reduce the code in the module as much as possible.
First remove storageDb() and use storageTest() instead. Then create storageTest() using pgBackRestTest::Common::Storage which has no dependencies on LibC. Now the only storage using the LibC interface is storageRepo().
Remove all link functions since those operations cannot be performed on a repo unless it is Posix, in which case the LibC interface is not needed. Same for owner().
Remove pathSync() because syncs are not required in the tests. No test data is reused after a crash.
Path create/exists functions should never be explicitly performed on a repo so remove those. File exists can be implemented by calling info() instead.
Remove encryption detection functions which were only used by Backup/Archive::Info reconstruct() which are now obsolete.
Remove all filters except pgBackRest::Storage::Filter::CipherBlock since they are not being used. That also means there are no filters returning results so remove all the result code.
Move hashSize() and pathAbsolute() into pgBackRest::Storage::Base where they can be shared between pgBackRest::Storage::Storage and pgBackRestTest::Common::Storage.
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.
