Implement list command

[mcurlej]

• Command: list

  • priority high

• Aliases: ls

  • keep it

Prints lists of packages depending on the packages’ relation to the system. A package is installed if it is present in the RPMDB, and it is available if it is not installed but is present in a repository that DNF knows about.

The list command also limits the displayed packages according to specific criteria, e.g. to only those that update an installed package (respecting the repository priority). The exclude option in the configuration file can influence the result, but if the --disableexcludes command line option is used, it ensures that all installed packages will be listed.

• dnf [options] list [--all] [<package-file-spec>...]
  • Shall we add --all option - it is a default behavior anyway
  • drop

Lists all packages, present in the RPMDB, in a repository or both.

• dnf [options] list --installed [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority high

Lists installed packages.

• dnf [options] list --available [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority high

Lists available packages.

• dnf [options] list --extras [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority low

Lists extras, that is packages installed on the system that are not available in any known repository.

• dnf [options] list --obsoletes [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority low

List packages installed on the system that are obsoleted by packages in any known repository.

• dnf [options] list --recent [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority low

List packages recently added into the repositories.

• dnf [options] list --upgrades [<package-file-spec>...]
  • priority low

List upgrades available for the installed packages.

• dnf [options] list --autoremove
  • priority low

List packages which will be removed by the dnf autoremove command.

This command by default does not force a sync of expired metadata. See also Metadata Synchronization.

--showduplicates
Shows the same version of package multiple times, it should list different versions of the same package, same behavior as in dnf5 info --available, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2193138

--available
Shows different number of packages compared to dnf4: dnf5 shows additional .x86_64.rpm to their i686 counterpart.
Example from output:
NetworkManager-libnm.i686 1:1.42.6-1.fc38
vs
NetworkManager-libnm.i686 1:1.42.6-1.fc38
NetworkManager-libnm.x86_64 1:1.42.6-1.fc38

Not sure if this it a bug though.

--updates
Still present, even though this alias was dropped for dnf5 info command
