* policy: added errorHandling.ignoreUnknownTypes flag (defaults to true)
* cli: get/set ignore-unknown-types policy flag
* htmlui: added UI for setting ignore-unknown-types
* htmlui: fixed typo
* fs: return fs.ErrorEntry when a directory entry is not recognized (localfs and repofs)
* upload: explicitly handle unknown entry types by treating them as ignored errors
* policy: add actions
* fs: added LocalFilesystemPath() which can optionally return local filesystem
path (if entry is local)
* cli: added support for setting policy actions
* upload: support for executing actions before/after folder (non-inheritable)
and before/after snapshots (inheritable)
* testing: end-to-end test for actions
* additional tests for actions with embedded scripts
The new files policy oneFileSystem ignores files that are mounted to
other filesystems similarly to tar's --one-file-system switch. For
example, if this is enabled, backing up / should now automatically
ignore /dev, /proc, etc, so the directory entries themselves don't
appear in the backup. The value of the policy is 'false' by default.
This is implemented by adding a non-windows-field Device (of type
DeviceInfo, reflecting the implementation of Owner) to the Entry
interface. DeviceInfo holds the dev and rdev acquired with stat (same
way as with Owner), but in addition to that it also holds the same
values for the parent directory. It would seem that doing this in some
other way, ie. in ReadDir, would require modifying the ReadDir
interface which seems a too large modification for a feature this
small.
This change introduces a duplication of 'stat' call to the files, as
the Owner feature already does a separate call. I doubt the
performance implications are noticeable, though with some refactoring
both Owner and Device fields could be filled in in one go.
Filling in the field has been placed in fs/localfs/localfs.go where
entryFromChildFileInfo has acquired a third parameter giving the the
parent entry. From that information the Device of the parent is
retrieved, to be passed off to platformSpecificDeviceInfo which does
the rest of the paperwork. Other fs implementations just put in the
default values.
The Dev and Rdev fields returned by the 'stat' call have different
sizes on different platforms, but for convenience they are internally
handled the same. The conversion is done with local_fs_32bit.go and
local_fs_64bit.go which are conditionally compiled on different
platforms.
Finally the actual check of the condition is in ignorefs.go function
shouldIncludeByDevice which is analoguous to the other similarly named
functions.

* snapshot: support for periodic checkpointing of snapshots in progress
For each snapshot that takes longer than 45 minutes, we trigger
internal cancellation, save the manifest and restart the snapshot
at which point all files will be cached.
This helps ensure the property that no file or directory objects
in the repository remain unreachable from a snapshot root for more than
one hour, which is important from GC perspective.
* nit: unified spelling 'cancelled' => 'canceled'
