while at it, add/fix some licenses/copyrights/comments:
- it makes no sense to have a GPL exception in scripts
- ted did not contribute to the man page
- tst_timers is not part of the mbsync executable
- explicitly put the build system under GPL and add copyrights
there isn't really a reason for that; DEBUG_CRASH is quite unlike the
other DEBUG_ flags.
note that the DEBUG_*_ALL flags are not checked, because they always
come with their corresponding less verbose flag anyway.
to test async operation of the syncing core while using the synchronous
maildir driver, we add a mode to the proxy driver where it queues
callback invocations to the next main loop iteration.
the underlying metaphor refers to an inhumane practice, so using it
casually is rightfully offensive to many people. it isn't even a
particularly apt metaphor, as it suggests a strict hierarchy that is
counter to mbsync's highly symmetrical mode of operation.
the far/near terminology has been chosen as the replacement, as it is a
natural fit for the push/pull terminology. on the downside, due to these
not being nouns, a few uses are a bit awkward, and several others had to
be amended to include 'side'. also, it's conceptually quite close to
remote/local, which matches the typical use case, but is maybe a bit too
suggestive of actually non-existing limitations.
the new f/n suffixes of the -C/-R/-X options clash with pre-existing
options, so direct concatenation of short options is even less practical
than before (some suffixes of -D already clashed), but doing that leads
to unreadable command lines anyway.
as with previous deprecations, all pre-existing command line and config
options keep working, but yield a warning. the state files are silently
upgraded.
... by making a lot of objects unsigned, and some signed.
casts which lose precision and change the sign in one go (ssize_t and
time_t to uint on LP64) are made explicit as well.
mostly ATTR_PRINTFLIKE(*, 0) for functions with a va_list argument.
also, one ATTR_NORETURN and one ATTR_UNUSED, both on functions.
also, an explicit suppression for a format string stored in a variable.
empty strings were previously meaningless, and starting with 72c2d695a,
failure to handle them lead to bogus results when the IMAP hierarchy
separator is legitimately empty (when the server genuinely supports none
and none is manually configured). non-null can be asserted more cleanly
than null-or-non-empty, so change the api like that.
incidentally, this also removes the need to work around gcc's bogus
warning in -Os mode.

do that by wrapping the actual stores into proxies.
the proxy driver's code is auto-generated from function templates, some
parameters, and the declarations of the driver functions themselves.
attempts to do it with CPP macros turned out to be a nightmare.
multiple Channels can call driver_t::list_store() with different LIST_*
flags. assuming the flags are actually taken into consideration, using a
single boolean 'listed' flag to track whether the Store still needs to
be listed obviously wouldn't cut it - if INBOX does not live right under
Path and the Channels used entirely disjoint Patterns (say, * and
INBOX*), the second Channel in a single run (probably a Group) would
fail to match anything.
to fix this, make store_t::listed more granular. this also requires
moving its handling back into the drivers (thus reverting c66afdc0),
because the actually performed queries and their possible implicit
results are driver-specific.
note that this slightly pessimizes some cases - e.g., an IMAP Store with
Path "" will now list the entire namespace even if there is only one
Channel with Pattern "INBOX*" (because a hypothetical Pattern "*" would
also include INBOX*, and the queries are kept disjoint to avoid the need
for de-duplication). this isn't expected to be a problem, as listing
mailboxes is generally cheap.
that pattern may very well expand to INBOXNOT, which would naturally
live under Path, so we need to look into the Path. of course, this
actually makes sense only if there *is* a Path, and complaining about
it being absent is backwards.
in the case of imap stores, the failure is bound to the server config,
not just the store config.
that means that the storage of the failure state needs to be private to
the driver, accessible only through a function.
- the old meaning of -V[V] was moved to -D{n|N}, as these are really
debugging options.
- don't print the info messages by default; this can be re-enabled with
the -V switch, and is implied by most debug options (it was really
kind of stupid that verbose/debug operation disabled these).
- the sync algo/state debugging can be separately enabled with -Ds now.
... instead of determining them on the fly, because
- it enables early display of totals (to be used soon)
- it enables re-use of the data (to be used at some point)
- the code is less cryptic
note that we leak the data created in main(), consistently with other
configuration-related data.
instead of creating three lists of mailboxes (common, master, slave)
and deriving the mailbox presence from the list being processed, create
a single joined list which contains the presence information.
additionally, the list is sorted alphabetically (with INBOX first),
which is neater.
propagating many messages from a fast store (typically maildir or a
local IMAP server) to a slow asynchronous store could cause gigabytes of
data being buffered. avoid this by throttling fetches if the target
context reports memory usage above a configurable limit.

don't retry dead Stores for every Channel.
this also introduces a state for transient errors (specifically, connect
failures), but this is currently unused.
