flatpak update --commit and flatpak remote-info read the download size from xa.download-size in the commit metadata, which only covers the ostree file objects and not extra-data. The summary cache path used by a regular flatpak update does add extra-data sizes, so the two differed: extra-data apps like com.jetbrains.Rider showed 1.3 MB instead of 1.6 GB. Add flatpak_commit_add_extra_data_sizes() to sum the extra-data sizes from a commit variant, and use it in resolve_op_from_commit() and remote-info so they match the summary path. The existing flatpak_repo_collect_extra_data_sizes() is changed to reuse it. Fixes: https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/5947

Host Requirements
Flatpak aims to run on a wide variety of systems. It is therefore conservative with required dependency versions and kernel features.
Currently, the main branch requires at least kernel version 5.8 (for
statx STATX_MNT_ID).
