Release v2017.11



https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/releases/tag/v2017.11

This release has a few new features, some UX improvements for the command
line, and a variety of bugfixes.

First off though is this commit: `docs/build: s/libOSTree/libostree/`.
The project is now more canonically called "libostree", though "OSTree"
and "ostree" are also fine.

The most important bugfix for anyone using `rofiles-fuse` (typically
build systems, rpm-ostree also uses it) is:

Alexander Larsson (1):
      rofiles-fuse: Fix lchown() and hardlink verification for symlinks
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1137

On the features side, we've added a few new APIs to the libarchive
importing and checkout path that will be used by rpm-ostree.  This
should be of interest to anyone using libostree for build systems
or underlying a hybrid image/package system like rpm-ostree.  For
example rpm-ostree automatically converts RPMs that have content
in /boot: https://github.com/projectatomic/rpm-ostree/pull/969
using the new libarchive filtering that landed here in libostree.
This is because ostree doesn't support updating anything in /boot
*besides* the bootloader configuration.

Another good example of a package system integration change is the
new OSTREE_REPO_CHECKOUT_OVERWRITE_UNION_IDENTICAL - this matches
the RPM semantic of merging identical files.  Thanks to
Ruixin Bao!

Also on the host system side, there is a new (canonical) place
for build systems to put the kernel/initramfs: /usr/lib/modules/$kver.
This change matches the current Fedora kernel RPM, and was originally
inspired by changes coming from the systemd camp.  More information:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1079

Guy Shapiro contributed a change to have all of the deployments
show up in the uboot configuration, to help enable automatic fallback
if a new OS fails to boot.
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1138

Colin Walters did a lot of style cleanups, some "error prefixing"
work to ensure we produce understandable errors in more situations,
and one other notable cleanup:
    boot: Add a tmpfiles.d snippet to clean up /var/tmp/ostree-ovl.XXX
This should be nice for anyone who uses `ostree admin unlock` frequently.

Dan Nicholson has been doing a lot of work on improving libostree's
management of configuration for remotes:
https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/pull/1155

Jonathan Lebon did a lot of cleanup in the command line parsing
and fixes for --help, and also helped with the new --selinux-label
option for `ostree commit`.  (And also did tons and tons of code review!)

Robert McQueen has been continuing work on fixing up libostree's handling of
GPG keys that have subkeys - there's now:
lib/gpg: Add _FINGERPRINT_PRIMARY to OstreeGpgVerifyResult
which effectively reverts an earlier change to make the primary key
show up as the main fingerprint.

Philip Withnall and Simon McVittie contributed build system and test
fixes.
