Insaf Latypov 46e9866ca0 sync: Provide a CLI command to opt in/out of smartsync for a user.
Add a boolean `sync.smartsync` setting in the per-user repo config
(~/.repoconfig/config):
* true: smart sync by default, as if -s were passed.
* false: never smart sync by default, even if the manifest enables it.
* unset: follow the manifest default, as before.

Add docs/repoconfig.md as the user facing documentation for
~/.repoconfig/config and its settings, and point smart-sync.md and the
`repo sync` help at it.

Rahul Yadav 3448df3954 sync: Add GetApprovedManifestV2 with named request options
Smart sync calls GetApprovedManifest(branch[, target]) over XML-RPC,
which only supports positional arguments.  Adding new request options
that way does not scale.

Add a GetApprovedManifestV2 method that takes a single struct of named
options and returns a struct:

  request:  {branch, target?, best_effort?}
  response: {success, manifest_xml?, error_message?}

Servers must ignore unknown options, so new options (e.g. criteria for
selecting a good build) can be added without another method.

The first new option is `best_effort`.  repo sets it when smart sync was
enabled implicitly by the manifest's sync-smartsync="true" default
rather than by -s.  The server may decline a best_effort request (e.g.
for rollout or cohort gating) by returning success=false.  The client
still owns the fallback policy: declined implicit requests fall back to
a regular sync, while explicit -s requests fail as before.

If the server does not implement GetApprovedManifestV2, repo falls back
to the legacy GetApprovedManifest call.

Rahul Yadav 178b66ee3e sync: keep smart sync override with -l
Splitting a sync into `repo sync -n` followed by `repo sync -l` should
end up in the same state as a single `repo sync`. With smart sync it
does not always: -n fetches the revisions pinned by the smart sync
manifest and saves it as smart_sync_override.xml, but the following -l
deletes that override and checks out ToT instead, unless the manifest
sets sync-smartsync="true". So `repo sync -s -n` + `repo sync -l` lands
on ToT, while `repo sync -s` lands on the pinned revisions.

Without an explicit -s or -t, -l does not contact the manifest server,
so it cannot choose new pins itself; the only consistent choice is to
keep the override the previous -n left behind. Do that regardless of
the manifest default.

Syncs that choose a manifest themselves still replace or remove the
override as before: any sync without -l, and -l combined with -s, -t,
-m, --superproject-revision or --no-smart-sync. Smart sync stays
non-sticky for regular syncs, and `repo sync -l --no-smart-sync` still
discards the override to check out ToT.

Rahul Yadav 340b587e94 sync: Support SYNC_BRANCH to override the smart sync branch
`repo sync -s` always sends the manifest branch to the manifest server
as the `branch` argument of GetApprovedManifest. Some servers map one
manifest branch to several server-side (CI) branches, and the only way
to pick among them was indirectly through the target.

Honor a SYNC_BRANCH environment variable, mirroring SYNC_TARGET: if set
and non-empty, send it instead of the manifest branch. An empty value
is treated as unset. -t/--smart-tag is unaffected.

Rahul Yadav 0a4e68f9d2 sync: don't let --nmu affect smart sync
--no-manifest-update has always meant "use the existing manifest
checkout as-is": it skips updating .repo/manifests and nothing else.
Smart sync pins do not come from that checkout but from the manifest
server, and an explicit `-s --nmu` already works that way.

The manifest-driven default smart sync (sync-smartsync="true") instead
treated --nmu like -l: it disabled the implicit smart sync and kept an
existing smart_sync_override.xml. So on such manifests `repo sync --nmu`
fetched and checked out the previous pins (or ToT if there were none)
instead of doing what `repo sync` does minus the manifest checkout
update.

Make --nmu orthogonal to smart sync again: it no longer disables the
default smart sync, and it no longer keeps the override. Both have to
change together; otherwise a failed implicit smart sync under --nmu
would fall back to ToT while leaving the override on disk. Only -l,
which skips fetching, keeps the override.

Rahul Yadav d53a4278f5 sync: Support manifest-driven default smart sync
Add support for enabling smart sync by default via the
sync-smartsync="true" attribute on the manifest <default> element.

When sync-smartsync is set to true in the manifest defaults:
- Plain `repo sync` triggers Smart Sync automatically.
- If that implicit Smart Sync fails (manifest server unreachable, or
  the returned manifest cannot be parsed), repo silently falls back to
  a regular ToT sync. The reason is logged with --verbose.
- `--no-smart-sync` CLI flag overrides the manifest default and
  syncs to ToT.
- Passing explicit `-s` / `--smart-sync` forces Smart Sync as before,
  and its failures are still fatal.
- `-t`, `--smart-tag`, `-m`, `--manifest-name`, and
  `--superproject-revision` disable the default smart sync.
- `-l` / `--local-only` and `--no-manifest-update` skip the manifest
  server and reuse the existing smart_sync_override.xml, if any.

Update docs, completion, regenerate man pages, and add tests for XML
parsing, serialization, CLI option resolution, and the fallback and
reuse paths.
