Andrew Gregory 3405709b46 add extended data field for arbitrary package data
This adds a mechanism for package builders to add arbitrary data to
packages that is not necessarily relevant enough to the package
installation process to gain first-class support in alpm.  Currently
these fields have to be added to parsers with a "not actually used"
comment and can't be retrieved through the API.

Extended data is stored in "name=value" format in the xdata field
(%XDATA% in desc files):

xdata = pkgtype=debug

or

%XDATA%
pkgtype=debug
