alpm: add ALPM_TRANS_FLAG_NOKEEP

this flag prevents backup files from being kept on package installation.
This is useful for resetting a package's config files back to their
original state.

Implements FS#59908 although with it's own flag name instead of reusing
nosave. This allows nokeep to optionally create a pacnew that you can
then choose to disable by also setting nosave.

---

I actually very dislike NOKEEP but it was the best I could come up with

I would have prefered overwrite or nosave but they are taken. Better
names are welcome.
