f7f4651828 bisync: handle unicode and case normalization consistently - mostly-fixes #7270
Before this change, Bisync sometimes normalized NFD to NFC and sometimes
did not, causing errors in some scenarios (particularly for users of macOS).
It was similarly inconsistent in its handling of case-insensitivity.

There were three main places where Bisync should have normalized, but didn't:

1. When building the list of files that need to be transferred during --resync
2. When building the list of deltas during a non-resync
3. When comparing Path1 to Path2 during --check-sync

After this change, 1 and 3 are resolved, and bisync supports
--no-unicode-normalization and --ignore-case-sync in the same way as sync.
2 will be addressed in a future update.

fd95511091 bisync: generate listings concurrently with march -- fixes #7332
Before this change, bisync needed to build a full listing for Path1, then a
full listing for Path2, then compare them -- and each of those tasks needed to
finish before the next one could start. In addition to being slow and
inefficient, it also caused real problems if a file changed between the time
bisync checked it on Path1 and the time it checked the corresponding file on
Path2.

This change solves these problems by listing both paths concurrently, using
the same March infrastructure that check and sync use to traverse two
directories in lock-step, optimized by Go's robust concurrency support.
Listings should now be much faster, and any given path is now checked
nearly-instantaneously on both sides, minimizing room for error.

6d6dc00abb bisync: rollback listing on error
Before this change, bisync had no mechanism for "retrying" a file again next
time, in the event of an unexpected and possibly temporary error. After this
change, bisync is now essentially able to mark a file as needing to be
rechecked next time. Bisync does this by keeping one prior listing on hand at
all times. In a low-confidence situation, bisync can revert a given file row
back to its state at the end of the last known successful sync, ensuring that
any subsequent changes will be re-noticed on the next run.
This can potentially be helpful for a dynamically changing file system, where
files may be changing quickly while bisync is working with them.

079763f09a bisync: isDir check for deltas
Before this change, if --create-empty-src-dirs was specified, bisync would
include directories in the list of deltas to evaluate by their modtime,
relative to the prior sync. This was unnecessary, as rclone does not yet
support setting modtime for directories.

After this change, we skip directories when comparing modtimes. (In other
words, we care only if a directory is created or deleted, not whether it is
newer or older.)

978cbf9360 bisync: generate final listing from sync results, not relisting -- fixes #5676
Before this change, if there were changes to sync, bisync listed each path
twice: once before the sync and once after. The second listing caused quite
a lot of problems, in addition to making each run much slower and more
expensive. A serious side-effect was that file changes could slip through
undetected, if they happened to occur while a sync was running (between the
first and second listing snapshots.)

After this change, the second listing is eliminated by getting the underlying
sync operation to report back a list of what it changed. Not only is this more
efficient, but also much more robust to concurrent modifications. It should no
longer be necessary to avoid make changes while it's running -- bisync will
simply learn about those changes next time and handle them on the next run.
Additionally, this also makes --check-sync usable again.

e43b5ce5e5 Remove github.com/pkg/errors and replace with std library version
This is possible now that we no longer support go1.12 and brings
rclone into line with standard practices in the Go world.

This also removes errors.New and errors.Errorf from lib/errors and
prefers the stdlib errors package over lib/errors.
