- Introduced a new field `built_against` in the InstalledPackageRecord struct to track concrete package names for ABI-sensitive dependencies.
- Updated database schema to include `built_against` column in the packages table.
- Modified package registration and listing functions to handle the new `built_against` field.

Remove the old LBI bootstrap/system-state path and make Depot stage and
install packages against standard FHS paths instead of rewriting payloads into
the custom /system layout. This drops the bootstrap command surface,
system-state storage, /system path normalization, and bootstrap chroot helper
while moving rootfs state defaults back under /var and aliases under /usr/bin.
Preserve hardlink topology throughout the package lifecycle. Add shared fs_copy
helpers for symlink/hardlink-aware tree copies, use them for source preparation,
binary packages, Rust installs, and lib32 staging, and keep hardlinks intact
during stripping, atomic installation, and package archive creation.
Replace the external fakeroot wrapper with an internal user-namespace based
install command wrapper. Install phases now run as UID/GID 0 inside a private
namespace while mapping ownership back to the invoking user on the host.
Split the package spec parser into loading, model, config, and tests modules
without changing the public PackageSpec surface. Keep strict unknown-key
handling, manual source validation, config/appends support, lib32 overrides,
and generated output helpers in the new layout.
Tighten build and dependency behavior:
- emit explicit shared-library selectors when static builds are disabled
- apply configure_arch entries for the effective target/lib32 architecture
- add CMake sysroot defaults for non-live DEPOT_ROOTFS builds
- resolve Rust source_subdir before build hooks and binary installation
- satisfy dependencies and local sibling plans through package real_name aliases
- accept bare git:// source URLs as HEAD checkouts
Update tests around FHS path expectations, namespace fakeroot installs,
hardlink-preserving copies/archives/installs/stripping, real_name dependency
resolution, configure_arch expansion, CMake sysroot defaults, Rust source
subdirs, and git:// URL parsing.
