William Pitcock f18c708183 solver: implement support for choosing default virtuals
By introducing a new package metadata field, `provider_priority`
(index letter `k`), we can specify default packages to satisfy a
virtual.

If a user wishes to select an alternative provider for the virtual,
a changeset swapping the default provider for the selected provider
will be generated by the dependency resolver.

Timo Teräs 01ec60f718 errors: improve analysis for virtual packages
if all packages named N provide the virtual package, list only the
name N instead of all packages providing it.

Timo Teräs e51232e710 errors: rewrite the logic how errors are reported
Instead of the dependency oriented logic, switch to print them
for each package or name needed. Might give a bit more readable
errors now. There's still few corner cases that proper error is
not output, which are cought by the test cases.
