To make restarting after failed pull less racy, we define `Truncate(size
int64) error` on `content.Writer` for the zero offset. Truncating a
writer will dump any existing data and digest state and start from the
beginning. All subsequent writes will start from the zero offset.
For the service, we support this by defining the behavior for a write
that changes the offset. To keep this narrow, we only support writes out
of order at the offset 0, which causes the writer to dump existing data
and reset the local hash.
This makes restarting failed pulls much smoother when there was a
previously encountered error and the source doesn't support arbitrary
seeks or reads at arbitrary offsets. By allowing this to be done while
holding the write lock on a ref, we can restart the full download
without causing a race condition.
Once we implement seeking on the `io.Reader` returned by the fetcher,
this will be less useful, but it is good to ensure that our protocol
properly supports this use case for when streaming is the only option.

After implementing pull, a few changes are required to the content store
interface to make sure that the implementation works smoothly.
Specifically, we work to make sure the predeclaration path for digests
works the same between remote and local writers. Before, we were
hesitent to require the the size and digest up front, but it became
clear that having this provided significant benefit.
There are also several cleanups related to naming. We now call the
expected digest `Expected` consistently across the board and `Total` is
used to mark the expected size.
This whole effort comes together to provide a very smooth status
reporting workflow for image pull and push. This will be more obvious
when the bulk of pull code lands.
There are a few other changes to make `content.WriteBlob` more broadly
useful. In accordance with addition for predeclaring expected size when
getting a `Writer`, `WriteBlob` now supports this fully. It will also
resume downloads if provided an `io.Seeker` or `io.ReaderAt`. Coupled
with the `httpReadSeeker` from `docker/distribution`, we should only be
a lines of code away from resumable downloads.

After iterating on the GRPC API, the changes required for the actual
implementation are now included in the content store. The begin change
is the move to a single, atomic `Ingester.Writer` method for locking
content ingestion on a key. From this, comes several new interface
definitions.
The main benefit here is the clarification between `Status` and `Info`
that came out of the GPRC API. `Status` tells the status of a write,
whereas `Info` is for querying metadata about various blobs.

With this change, we add the following commands to the dist tool:
- `ingest`: verify and accept content into storage
- `active`: display active ingest processes
- `list`: list content in storage
- `path`: provide a path to a blob by digest
- `delete`: remove a piece of content from storage
We demonstrate the utility with the following shell pipeline:
```
$ ./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis latest mediatype:application/vnd.docker.distribution.manifest.v2+json | \
jq -r '.layers[] | "./dist fetch docker.io/library/redis "+.digest + "| ./dist ingest --expected-digest "+.digest+" --expected-size "+(.size | tostring) +" docker.io/library/redis@"+.digest' | xargs -I{} -P10 -n1 sh -c "{}"
```
The above fetches a manifest, pipes it to jq, which assembles a shell
pipeline to ingest each layer into the content store. Because the
transactions are keyed by their digest, concurrent downloads and
downloads of repeated content are ignored. Each process is then executed
parallel using xargs.
Put shortly, this is a parallel layer download.
In a separate shell session, could monitor the active downloads with the
following:
```
$ watch -n0.2 ./dist active
```
For now, the content is downloaded into `.content` in the current
working directory. To watch the contents of this directory, you can use
the following:
```
$ watch -n0.2 tree .content
```
This will help to understand what is going on internally.
To get access to the layers, you can use the path command:
```
$./dist path sha256:010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa
sha256:010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa /home/sjd/go/src/github.com/docker/containerd/.content/blobs/sha256/010c454d55e53059beaba4044116ea4636f8dd8181e975d893931c7e7204fffa
```
When you are done, you can clear out the content with the classic xargs
pipeline:
```
$ ./dist list -q | xargs ./dist delete
```
Note that this is mostly a POC. Things like failed downloads and
abandoned download cleanup aren't quite handled. We'll probably make
adjustments around how content store transactions are handled to address
this.
From here, we'll build out full image pull and create tooling to get
runtime bundles from the fetched content.

The package exports are now cleaned up to remove a lot of stuttering in
the API. We also remove direct mapping of refs to the filesystem, opting
for a hash-based approach. This *does* affect insertion performance,
since it requires more individual file ios. A benchmark baseline has
been added and we can fix this later.

status.

Break up the content store prototype into a few logical files. We have a
file for the store, the writer and helpers.
Also, the writer has been modified to remove write and exec permissions
on blobs in the store.
