alpm: add new alpm_find_satisfier function
whatprovides and splitdep were removed, so depcmp alone is quite useless now without splitdep, and deptest is not flexible enough. Introduce a new alpm_find_satisfier which is hopefully more flexible, this should make implementation of deptest very easy, and also help alpm tools such as pactree.
