The "almost" comes from the fact that there is a reference to
"pu"/"stable" which does not have an obvious fix at the moment.

Previously, we would always create empty data structures for "pu" and
"tpu" if these optional suites were not configured. However, we only
reference "pu" and "tpu" directly in very few spots that can easily be
rewritten.

Into 3 categories:
* target suite ("testing")
* primary source suite ("unstable")
* additional source suites ("pu" and "tpu")
This will be useful for implementing logic working with suites without
basing it on the name of the suite.

At the moment, it is just a glorified dict. However, we will
eventually use it to get rid of the hardcoded references to "testing"
etc. all over the code.

All the output is a duplicate of what is being sent to the root logger
(albeit in a different format) and in e.g. our test suite the output
is entirely redundant.

With a bit of code we can replace the manual file-handling for
"upgrade_output" with a logger. This will enable us to refactor other
bits that currently depend on "output_write" by making those bits use
a logger instead.
This also migrates "do_hint" to use the new output logger. This is
due to "do_hint" being the only method relying on writing of partial
lines and maintaining support for that in "output_write" would have
been non-trivial.
To ensure "pretty" formatting to stdout, the messages in
"output_write" are now chopped into multiple lines.
The only visible change is that the output to stdout from
"output_write" now also includes the prefix with a timestamp.
However, then contents of "upgrade_output" remain unchanged
deliberately.

The "Out of date" binaries loop has gotten too complex to also handle
the "unsatisifiable dependency" check. Concretely, we failed to
generate proper excuses for arch:all packages due to this.
Separate the two loops to restore the arch:all check.

Add a new "BuildDependsPolicy" that will check the satisfiability of
the build-dependencies listed in the Build-Depends and
Build-Depends-Arch fields. This enables gating of packages based on
missing / broken build-dependencies.
There are some limitations:
* Build-Depends-Indep is ignored for now. Missing or broken packages
listed in Build-Depends-Indep will be continue to be silently
ignored.
* Being a policy check, it does not enforce "self-containedness" as
a package can still migrate before a build-dependency. However,
this can only happen if the build-dependency is ready to migrate
itself. If the build-dependency is not ready (e.g. new RC bugs),
then packages build-depending on it cannot migrate either (unless
the version in testing satisfies there requirements).

With this change, Britney can now provide a very brief summary of the
migration via one single value (YAML) or line (HTML). This solves two
issues:
* It provides an aggregated version of the policy decision without
having to loop over all policies (and even those would not give
a full verdict on their own as not all rejections come from
policies)
* It enables a simple way to inform readers of the HTML excuses of
whether a rejection is permanent or not. This should hopefully
make it easier for contributors to understand Britney and react
more pro-actively.

This gives Policies the opportunity to see if a previous check
(build/installability) or earlier policies already invalidated the update. This
allows writing policies that work on groups of packages, or skipping expensive
checks (such as triggering autopkgtests while the package is not built or
installable yet).

This allows tests to check whether there are any missing builds or old
binaries, so that expensive actions such as "trigger an autopkgtest" are not
done too early/in vain.
Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
For future policies such as running autopkgtests it is important to know
whether a package has built, so that expensive actions such as "trigger an
autopkgtest" are not done too early/in vain.
This requires dropping the "age != 0" check for adding the out-of-date-ness to
the Excuse, as the policies now run later. But this check only applied to an
infinitesimal age, and even with age == 0 it is still a valid excuse that there
are missing binaries.

FAILED/SUCCESS lines would be separated by a whitespace from the list
of architectures, but not itself followed by whitespace. This is slightly
confusing, as one could interpret it as being a heading for the following
block of tested packages, rather that the final result of the previous
block.
This includes refining "HINTS_ALL" to cover all hints added at
runtime.
Currently, it is not very useful. However, a later commit will allow
policies to use this feature.
