Be more robust when copying package data
This changes the signature of _alpm_pkg_dup() to return an integer error code and provide the new package in a passed pointer argument. All callers are now more robust with checking the return value of this function to ensure a fatal error did not occur. We allow load failures to proceed as otherwise we have a chicken and egg problem- if a 'desc' local database entry is missing, the best way of restoring said file is `pacman -Sf --dbonly packagename`. This patch fixes a segfault that was occurring in this case. Fixes the segfault reported in FS#25667. Signed-off-by: Dan McGee <dan@archlinux.org>
