updates to non-blocking update plan

git-svn-id: https://svn.musicpd.org/mpd/trunk@611 09075e82-0dd4-0310-85a5-a0d7c8717e4f
parent c5d760e2
1) non-blocking (for other clients) update
a) have two commands, one that blocks and returns updated info and another command that doesn't block
b) allow incremental updating, either a directory recursively or a specific song
c) haven another command for updating that blocks, but doesn't write the db file
d) add a command for flushing the db, and flush the db and SIGTERM/SIGINT
e) spawn a update process in the beginning (this will be faster for simple updates, involving only a few songs or directories).
c) fork on update
d) have a special case where if a update is in a command list, it only forks at the beginning of the list, and writes at the end of the command list
e) add an element to status stating the "update state"
f) only pass back changed info to parent
g) only pass mtimes and paths to child
2) rewrite interface stuff, specifically command list handling etc so its less of a hack and deals with the above update stuff better
