Daniele Fucini bcffe942d4 Record trustsight reviews in the reminder
trustsight review is read-only by default, so each run compared only against the previous AUR commit instead of the last reviewed one.

Daniele Fucini 10b84b771e Remove the pacman hook
Status bars already drop installed entries, and the path unit covers repo
builds, so the hook only ran checkupdates on every transaction.

Daniele Fucini 41f94d719b Refresh quietly from the path unit and pacman hook
Add a --quiet mode that updates the pending file without notifying, run by
the new update-notify-quiet.service, so aur sync doesn't notify per package.

Daniele Fucini ffb15c0954 Keep the configured threshold in the pending file
A threshold argument is a one-off override for the notification, so status bars
keep using THRESHOLD from the config.

Add a pacman hook that runs update-notify for each logged-in user with the timer active, and a path unit that users can point at their local repo databases to refresh after aur build.

The timer runs 5 minutes after boot, then every 6 hours.
### Refresh after building packages
To run `update-notify --quiet` whenever a repository changes, add the repository files to watch to `update-notify.path`:
```
systemctl --user edit update-notify.path
```
```
[Path]
PathChanged=/home/aur-local/aur-local.db.tar.gz.sig
PathChanged=/home/custom-pkgs/custom-pkgs.db.tar.gz.sig
```
Watch the `.db.tar.gz.sig` file for signed repositories, or `.db.tar.gz` for unsigned ones (`.db` is a symlink). Then enable it:
```
systemctl --user enable --now update-notify.path
```
## Usage
```
update-notify [threshold]
update-notify [-q|--quiet] [threshold]
```
`threshold` is the minimum number of updates (repo + AUR) before update counts are shown. It overrides the `THRESHOLD` setting below.
`threshold` is the minimum number of updates (repo + AUR) before update counts are shown. It overrides the `THRESHOLD` setting below for that run's notification only; the pending file keeps the configured value.
`--quiet` updates the pending file without notifying. Changes to a notification already shown are recorded, so the next timer run doesn't repeat them; a new notification is left for the timer. `update-notify.path` uses it (through `update-notify-quiet.service`), so building many packages doesn't notify after each one.
## Configuration
@@ -74,13 +97,13 @@ The content of the last notification is stored in `$XDG_STATE_HOME/update-notify
Each run also writes the pending updates to `$XDG_STATE_HOME/update-notify/pending`, whether or not the threshold is reached, for status bars such as xmobar to read:
```
threshold 30
threshold <THRESHOLD from the config, not the argument>
repo <pkg> <newver>
aur <pkg> <newver>
kernel <custom-pkg> <stock-ver>
```
The file reflects the last run. To keep a bar current after an upgrade, drop entries whose installed version (`pacman -Q`) is no longer older than `newver`, or, for `kernel` lines, whose custom build has caught up with `stock-ver` (ignoring `pkgrel`). This only reads local data, so it's cheap to run often.
The file reflects the last timer or `update-notify.path` run.

This only reads local data, so it's cheap to run often.
