Teach pacman to save backup files using extension of .pacsave.timestamp
"timestamp" is the time of removal of the backup file. It is in
<year>-<month>-<day>-<HHMMSS> format, where:
- year is either the year with century or a 2 digit number from 00 to 99 (year
without century) if the timestamp string exceeds 20 characters
- month is a 2 digit number from 01 to 12
- day is a 2 digit number from 01 to 31
- HH is a 2 digit number from 00 to 23 representing the hour
- MM and SS are 2 digit numbers from 00 to 59 representing minutes and seconds
respectively
An example of such a pacsave file is /etc/pacman.conf.pacsave.2011-07-29-145035
This addresses FS#24192 (pacman overwrites .pacsave files)
FILE_PACSAVE rule for the test suite is updated to reflect the change in
.pacsave file extension. FILE_PACSAVE rules can be used as per before this patch.
