[pacman-dev] [PATCH 3/3] Delay the creation of local and sync db dir.

[Xavier Chantry]

We don't need to create the directories when local or sync dbs are
registered. For example, if a sync db does not exist, we cannot even do
"pacman -Q" as an user..

Instead, we can create the local db if needed during the db_prepare
operation, and sync dbs on db_update.

Also remove some more useless abstractions in db_update and switch to a much
more efficient way to remove a sync db : rm -rf.
