/*
** DAV extension module for Apache 2.0.*
**  - Property database handling (repository-independent)
**
** NOTES:
**
**   PROPERTY DATABASE
**
**   This version assumes that there is a per-resource database provider
**   to record properties. The database provider decides how and where to
**   store these databases.
**
**   The DBM keys for the properties have the following form:
**
**     namespace ":" propname
**
**   For example: 5:author
**
**   The namespace provides an integer index into the namespace table
**   (see below). propname is simply the property name, without a namespace
**   prefix.
**
**   A special case exists for properties that had a prefix starting with
**   "xml". The XML Specification reserves these for future use. mod_dav
**   stores and retrieves them unchanged. The keys for these properties
**   have the form:
**
**     ":" propname
**
**   The propname will contain the prefix and the property name. For
**   example, a key might be ":xmlfoo:name"
**
**   The ":name" style will also be used for properties that do not
**   exist within a namespace.
**
**   The DBM values consist of two null-terminated strings, appended
**   together (the null-terms are retained and stored in the database).
**   The first string is the xml:lang value for the property. An empty
**   string signifies that a lang value was not in context for the value.
**   The second string is the property value itself.
**
**
**   NAMESPACE TABLE
**
**   The namespace table is an array that lists each of the namespaces
**   that are in use by the properties in the given propdb. Each entry
**   in the array is a simple URI.
**
**   For example: http://www.foo.bar/standards/props/
**
**   The prefix used for the property is stripped and the URI for it
**   is entered into the namespace table. Also, any namespaces used
**   within the property value will be entered into the table (and
**   stripped from the child elements).
**
**   The namespaces are stored in the DBM database under the "METADATA" key.
**
**
**   STRIPPING NAMESPACES
**
**   Within the property values, the namespace declarations (xmlns...)
**   are stripped. Each element and attribute will have its prefix removed
**   and a new prefix inserted.
**
**   This must be done so that we can return multiple properties in a
**   PROPFIND which may have (originally) used conflicting prefixes. For
**   that case, we must bind all property value elements to new namespace
**   values.
**
**   This implies that clients must NOT be sensitive to the namespace
**   prefix used for their properties. It WILL change when the properties
**   are returned (we return them as "ns<index>", e.g. "ns5"). Also, the
**   property value can contain ONLY XML elements and CDATA. PI and comment
**   elements will be stripped. CDATA whitespace will be preserved, but
**   whitespace within element tags will be altered. Attribute ordering
**   may be altered. Element and CDATA ordering will be preserved.
**
**
**   ATTRIBUTES ON PROPERTY NAME ELEMENTS
**
**   When getting/setting properties, the XML used looks like:
**
**     <prop>
**       <propname1>value</propname1>
**       <propname2>value</propname1>
**     </prop>
**
**   This implementation (mod_dav) DOES NOT save any attributes that are
**   associated with the <propname1> element. The property value is deemed
**   to be only the contents ("value" in the above example).
**
**   We do store the xml:lang value (if any) that applies to the context
**   of the <propname1> element. Whether the xml:lang attribute is on
**   <propname1> itself, or from a higher level element, we will store it
**   with the property value.
**
**
**   VERSIONING
**
**   The DBM db contains a key named "METADATA" that holds database-level
**   information, such as the namespace table. The record also contains the
**   db's version number as the very first 16-bit value. This first number
**   is actually stored as two single bytes: the first byte is a "major"
**   version number. The second byte is a "minor" number.
**
**   If the major number is not what mod_dav expects, then the db is closed
**   immediately and an error is returned. A minor number change is
**   acceptable -- it is presumed that old/new dav_props.c can deal with
**   the database format. For example, a newer dav_props might update the
**   minor value and append information to the end of the metadata record
**   (which would be ignored by previous versions).
**
**
** ISSUES:
**
**   At the moment, for the dav_get_allprops() and dav_get_props() functions,
**   we must return a set of xmlns: declarations for ALL known namespaces
**   in the file. There isn't a way to filter this because we don't know
**   which are going to be used or not. Examining property names is not
**   sufficient because the property values could use entirely different
**   namespaces.
**
**   ==> we must devise a scheme where we can "garbage collect" the namespace
**       entries from the property database.
