Add a likely_pkg hint argument to sync_db_read
In most (all?) cases, we will process all files for a given sync database entry sequentially. The code currently does an _alpm_pkg_find() for every file in the database, but we had the "current" package readily available. Shift some local variables around a bit to expose this to sync_db_read() and use it if the package is the correct one. On my system, this cuts calls to _alpm_pkg_find() from 20,769 to 10,349 calls during a -Qu operation, and results in a ~30% speedup of the same operation (0.35 sec -> 0.27 sec). This benefit should be apparent anywhere we read in the full contents of the sync databases. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
