Changeset 585 for trunk/confman.conf.in

Message:

Introduce new option CONF_EXPORT_FILEDB.

This allows confexport to convert repository metadata into a
proprietary file-backed metadata format and exclude all Subversion
working-copy-related files from exports.

confsync has been modified to automatically detect the presence of
the new metadata format and use it if it is available.

This has multiple benefits:

• Significantly reduces the size of export tarballs
• Reduces the time to generate export tarballs
• Eliminates the requirement that confexport/confsync have matching versions of Subversion
• Significantly improves confsync performance by eliminating svn forks

There will be even further benefits when ticket #151 is closed because
the repository metadata wil not need to be converted during confexport.

Fixes #139
