libalpm: add iterator interface for syncdb files
This commit adds an iterator interface for reading files from the
syncdbs. Instead of using alpm_pkg_get_files(), you now get the files
from the database using alpm_db_files_open(), you then use
alpm_db_files_next() to iterate through the files for each package. If
you want to actually load the files from that package you then use
alpm_db_files_load().

This means alpm_pkg_get_files() will always return empty for syncdbs,
even on .files databases, however these functions still work on the
localdb and loaded packages.

This aproach is faster when dumping the entire file list but slower when
searching for a specific package.

The memory usage of pacman is drastically less. See below.
