This change solves a long-standing problem with using @nonterm{}
inside @tt{} or other constructors that change the font, where
the font would be different (and uglier) than uses outside of font
changes.
Use better labels, such as "Available from Catalog" instead of "By List"
or "Do What I Mean" instead of "By Source".
Add filter box to the "Currently Installed" panel, andmake status marker
the same as on "Available from Catalog".
It's possible that an installation will have a package X already and
a user wants to install a different X. To make it all work out,
the user may have to also install a new Y for every installation-scoped
Y that refers to X --- maybe not easy, but at least possible as
a last resort.
This option makes install and update even more consistent, also
`--auto` still implies `--update-deps` only in update mode.
Make `--update-deps' consult the user in `search-ask' mode,
make it ignored in `fail' or `force' mode.

This reverts commit de230bc1ef.
Now that path computatons are built in, and now that the sandbox allows
reading the configuration file, using the installation name doesn't
break with sandboxing.
The computations already existed in the built-in code, so moving
the functions reduces code duplication. Caching the values will
save a little time, but mostly it will avoid sandbox interactions
with the task of locating the main "collects" and "etc" directories.
Needs to do it when the relevant stderr is in effect.
Fixes PR 13744, except that something like this is still bad:
(with-output-to-file "/tmp/foo" #:exists 'append
(lambda ()
(parameterize ([current-error-port (current-output-port)])
(/ 1 0))))
But I think that it's a bad idea for the error display handler to be
called with the locally set port -- described in PR 13974.
This implementation of SSL ports is less complete than `openssl', but
it's complete enough to drive HTTPS, and so it can be used to download
a package that provides the DLLs needed for the `openssl' library.
The `net/url' library uses `net/win32-ssl' on Windows when `openssl'
is not available (due to the absence of the OpenSSL DLLs).
