Add functions to calculate approximate disk usage by packages
Two helper function are added to calculate the disk usage from packages that are either currently installed on the system or from a package archive. Some minor approximations have been made: 1. Size for directories is not considered when removing a package from the filesystem to avoid multiple counting across packages. Also, these are reported to take zero size while installing. 2. Symlinks are reported to contribute zero size towards removal as libarchive reports them to have zero size for install. 3. Package data files (.PKGINFO, .INSTALL, .CHANGELOG) are counted towards usage on dbpath on install, but their size is not counted on package removal. 4. No handling of extra size needed for .pacsave/.pacnew files. Signed-off-by: Allan McRae <allan@archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
