I was doing some rpm-ostree work and I wanted to compare two
OSTree commits to see if the kernel has changed. I think
this should be a lot more natural.
Add `ostree commit --bootable` which calls into a new generic
library API `ostree_commit_metadata_for_bootable()` that
discovers the kernel version and injects it as an `ostree.linux`
metadata key. And for extra clarity, add an `ostree.bootable`
key.
It's interesting because the "core" OSTree layer is all about
generic files, but this is adding special APIs around bootable
OSTree commits (as opposed to e.g. flatpak as well as
things like rpm-ostree's pkgcache refs).
Eventually, I'd like to ensure everyone is using this and
hard require this metadata key for the `ostree admin deploy`
flow - mainly to prevent accidents.
I was trying to followup the `--selinux-policy-from-base` work
to add a `cosa build --fast=overlay` for coreos-assembler,
but hit on the fact that using e.g. `--owner-uid` disables
commit optimizations.
A while ago, https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1643 landed
which optimized this for the case where no modifications are provided.
But, we really need the SELinux policy bits, and it's super convenient
to run `ostree commit` as non-root.
It's fairly surprising actually that it's taken us so long to
iterate on a good interface for this "commit changes on top of a base"
model. In practice, many nontrivial cases really end up needing
to do a (hardlink) checkout, and that case is optimized.
But for this coreos-assembler work I want to directly overlay onto
a commit object another commit object.
That previous PR above added exactly the API we need, so let's
expose it in the CLI.
What you can see happening in the test is that we provide
`--owner-uid 42`, but that only applies to directories/files
that were added in the commit.
And now that I look at this, I think what we really want here
is to avoid changing directories that exist in the base, but
eh; in practice the main use here is for `--owner-uid 0` while
committing as non-root; and that works fine with this since
the baseline uid will be zero as well.
SPDX License List is a list of (common) open source
licenses that can be referred to by a “short identifier”.
It has several advantages compared to the common "license header texts"
usually found in source files.
Some of the advantages:
* It is precise; there is no ambiguity due to variations in license header
text
* It is language neutral
* It is easy to machine process
* It is concise
* It is simple and can be used without much cost in interpreted
environments like java Script, etc.
* An SPDX license identifier is immutable.
* It provides simple guidance for developers who want to make sure the
license for their code is respected

For many cases of commit, we can actually optimize things by simply "adopting"
the object rather than writing a new copy. For example, in rpm-ostree package
layering.
We can only make that optimization though if we take ownership of the file. This
commit hence adds an API where a caller tells us to do so. For now, that just
means we `unlink()` the files/dirs as we go, but we can now later add the
"adopt" optimization.

This was already supported by the commit modifier API, just needed to
expose it. This will also be used to test the libarchive API in a future
test.
