After a first attempt with D7812 this one use a different strategy to
retrieve origins.
Fetch and extract "core.files.tar.gz", "extra.files.tar.gz" and "community.files.tar.gz" from archives.archlinux.org. That step ensure that we have a list of "official" packages.
Parse metadata from 'desc' file to build origins url.
Scrap the origin url to get artifacts metadata that list all versions of a package.
It also fetch and extract unofficial 'arm' packages from archlinuxarm.org but in this case we can not get all versions of an arm package.

The Crates lister retrieves crates package for Rust lang.
It basically fetches https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index.git
to a temp directory and then walks through each file to get the
crate's info.
The Maven lister retrieves the maven central indexes, exports them in a
convenient text format, and parse them to identify all src archives and
pom files in the maven repository. Then the pom files are downloaded and
analysed to find and yield any scm reference.
Note: This is a new version of the maven lister diff D6133 which takes
into account the initial round of reviews.

Following zack's work on T735, this change introduces an actual SWH lister for
SourceForge.
SourceForge provides a main sitemap that lists sharded sitemaps, which
themselves list pages. Each page belongs to a project (or sub-project,
though those are rare), information about which can be found by querying
a REST API, which gives us the list of any and all VCS used for said
project. Both sitemaps and pages have a "last modified" timestamp that
will be used in a future patch to implement incremental listing.
More precise information can be found as inline comments or docstrings.
Listers are declared as plugins via the `swh.workers` entry_point.
As such, the registry function is expected to return a dict with the
`task_modules` field (as for generic worker plugins), plus:
- `lister`: the lister class,
- `models`: list of SQLAlchemy models used by this lister,
- `init` (optionnal): hook (callable) used to initialize the lister's state
(typically, create/initialize the database for this lister).
If not set, the default implementation creates database tables (after
optionally having deleted exisintg ones) according to models declared in
the `models` register field.
There is no need for explicitely add lister task modules in the main
`conftest` module, but any new/extra lister to be tested must be registered
(the tested lister module must be properly installed in the test environment).
Also refactor a bit the cli tools:
- add support for the standard --config-file option at the 'lister' group
level,
- move the --db-url to the 'lister' group,
- drop the --lister option for the `swh lister db-init` cli tool:
initializing (especially with --drop-tables) the database for a single
lister is unreliable, since all tables are created using a sibgle MetaData
(in the same namespace).
also add a cli group named 'lister' for the sake of consistency with
other swh packages and rename the command as 'db-init', like:
swh lister db-init LISTER [...]
