A bit of an explanation for these weirdly named functions:
LatestActivePackageInfos() returns the packages on the system that are
both installed and fully set up. When packages are in the middle of being
installed, LatestInactivePackageInfos() shows the packages in the process
of being installed. Once the installation process is done,
LatestInactivePackageInfos() returns nothing. If there are packages that
can't be fully activated without a reboot, CurrentlyActivePackageInfos()
will return the same information as LatestActivePackageInfos(), or if
everything has been installed and activated, it will return no packages.

Can be requested/stopped via BPackageRoster::{Start,Stop}Watching().
The notification message has the what code B_PACKAGE_UPDATE and contains
fields "event", "location", and "change count".
* Rename PackageDaemonDefs.h to DaemonDefs.h.
* Replace the MESSAGE_GET_PACKAGES by the new
B_MESSAGE_GET_INSTALLATION_LOCATION_INFO, which not only returns the
packages, but also other information about the installation location.
* daemon: Volume: Implement a change count which is bumped whenever
packages are activated/deactivated/added/removed. Cache the reply
for a location info request, using the change count to check whether
it is still up-to-date.
* Add private BDaemonClient for communication with the daemon.
* BRoster:
- Add GetInstallationLocationInfo() using BDaemonClient.
- Reimplement GetActivePackages(), using
GetInstallationLocationInfo().
The implementation is temporary. Currently it reads through the packages
in the respective packages directory and checks against the package
links. Once package activation is tracked explicitly we'll use the
activation file/directory.
* added class BPackageInfo, which contains packaging attributes of
a package (the values relevant for package management)
* implemented parser (mostly) for reading a BPackageInfo from a config
file (.PackageInfo) in order to pass them on to the PackageWriter
when creating a package
* pulled hpkg-related stuff from bin/package into the package kit
* adjusted packagefs-Volume to skip .PackageInfo files when populating
the mountpoint, as those files shouldn't appear as part of an
activated package

* drop 'Haiku' namespace
* rename 'Package' namespace to 'BPackageKit'
* renamed all public classes to begin with a 'B'
* renamed BPackageKit::Roster to BPackageKit::BPackageRoster to not
clash with the BRoster from the application kit.
* fix some instances of public headers including private ones
Some functional changes, too:
* JobQueue now removes and deletes dependants of failed jobs
automatically
* JobQueue supports waiting for jobs to become runnable
* added a couple of InitCheck() methods where they make sense
and invoke those in users of these classes
