An update that has nine recommended fixes can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for libsolv, libzypp, zypper fixes the following issues:

libsolv:

  * Do not autouninstall SUSE PTF packages
  * Ensure 'duplinvolvedmap_all' is reset when a solver is reused
  * Fix "keep installed" jobs not disabling "best update" rules
  * New '-P' and '-W' options for `testsolv`
  * New introspection interface for weak dependencies similar to ruleinfos
  * Ensure special case file dependencies are written correctly in the testcase
    writer
  * Support better info about alternatives
  * Support decision reason queries
  * Support merging of related decisions
  * Support stringification of multiple solvables
  * Support stringification of ruleinfo, decisioninfo and decision reasons

libzypp:

  * Avoid calling getsockopt when we know the info already. This patch should
    fix logging on WSL, getsockopt seems to not be fully supported but the code
    required it when accepting new socket connections (bsc#1178233)
  * Avoid redirecting 'history.logfile=/dev/null' into the target
  * Create '.no_auto_prune' in the package cache dir to prevent auto cleanup of
    orphaned repositories (bsc#1204956)
  * Enhance yaml-cpp detection
  * Improve download of optional files
  * MultiCurl: Make sure to reset the progress function when falling back.
  * Properly reset range requests (bsc#1204548)
  * Removing a PTF without enabled repos should always fail (bsc#1203248)
    Without enabled repos, the dependent PTF-packages would be removed (not
    replaced!) as well. To remove a PTF     zypper install -- -PTF or a dedicated
        zypper removeptf PTF should be used. This will update the installed PTF
    packages to theit latest version.
  * Skip media.1/media download for http repo status calc. This patch allows
    zypp to skip a extra media.1/media download to calculate if a repository
    needs to be refreshed. This optimisation only takes place if the repo does
    specify only downloading base urls.
  * Use a dynamic fallback for BLKSIZE in downloads. When not receiving a
    blocklist via metalink file from the server MediaMultiCurl used to fallback
    to a fixed, relatively small BLKSIZE. This patch changes the fallback into a
    dynamic value based on the filesize using a similar metric as the
    MirrorCache implementation on the server side.
  * ProgressData: enforce reporting the INIT||END state (bsc#1206949)
  * ps: fix service detection on newer Tumbleweed systems (bsc#1205636)

zypper:

  * Allow to (re)add a service with the same URL (bsc#1203715)
  * Bump dependency requirement to libzypp-devel 17.31.7 or greater
  * Explain outdatedness of repositories
  * patterns: Avoid dispylaing superfluous @System entries (bsc#1205570)
  * Provide `removeptf` command (bsc#1203249) A remove command which prefers
    replacing dependant packages to removing them as well. A PTF is typically
    removed as soon as the fix it provides is applied to the latest official
    update of the dependant packages. However it is not desired for the
    dependant packages to be removed together with the PTF, which is what the
    remove command would do. The `removeptf` command however will aim to replace
    the dependant packages by their official update versions.
  * Update man page and explain '.no_auto_prune' (bsc#1204956)
