The completion of charts was using 'helm search repo' which can be
quite slow as it must parse the entire yaml of every repo cache file.
Using completion for a chart name can end up triggering multiple calls
to 'helm search'; this makes the user experience poor, as there is
a delay of over a second at every <TAB> press.
This commit creates a cache file for each repo which contains the list
of charts for that repo. The completion logic then uses this new
cache file directly and obtains the chart names very quickly.
With only the stable repo configured, this optimization makes the
completion of charts about 85 times faster, going from 1.2 seconds to
0.014 seconds; such a difference gives a much better user experience
when completing chart names.
On the other hand, adding the creation of the chart list cache file to
'helm repo update' or 'helm repo add' is pretty much negligible compared
to the downloading of the index file.
It is also worth noting that when more repos are configured,
'helm search repo' only becomes slower, while the completion logic that
uses the new chart list cache file will not be affected as it only looks
for the single relevant repo file.

This flattens the getter package tree, adds tests, and changes a little
bit of the terminology to follow Go idioms. This also makes much of the
getter API private to begin with. This will give us more flexibility in
the future.
It is now possible to create plugins with chart download capabilities for custom, non-http protocols.
Furthermore it is possible to reuse helm packages to implement alternative clients with these custom downloader functions.
A regression was committed during 2.2.0 that broke the repositories.yaml
file format, switching the cache path from relative to absolute. This
fixes the error.

This prevents the index command from recursing through directories.
Behind the scenes, it swaps out the repository logic for the index file
logic.
Closes#1328
Between Alpha.4 and Alpha.5 there was a change in the indexing logic.
This prevent indices from being appended to (because those index files
were often broken). This change allows the user to explicitly merge an
existing index and a generated index.
Closes#1334
I wrote urlJoin to fix URL joining, but I put it in the wrong place and
never used it. This moves it to the right place, and replaces the hacky
previous solution.
This performs a relatively weak in-memory translation of index file
data. It does not, in most cases, write the corrected data to disk, and
it emits a warning directly to STDERR each time it loads a deprecated
index.
Known limitations:
- It cannot recover certain bogus records that earlier alpha releases
generated (notably, where all chartfile data is missing)
- In some cases, it has to parse a filename to get version info. This is
lossy.
- Because it takes three passes through the YAML and JSON unmarshal, it
is not performant.
This feature is transitional and should be removed during the Beta
cycle, prior to the release of 2.0.0.
Closes#1265
This implements a new index file format for repository indices. It also
implements a new format for requirements.yaml.
Breaking change: This will break all previous versions of Helm, and will
impact helm search, repo, serve, and fetch functions.
