[TUF] Repository Tool

[nate-double-u]

The Metadata API of the python-tuf reference implementation provides a modern API for accessing individual pieces of TUF metadata. It does not, however, provide any wider context help to someone looking to implement a TUF repository. The goal of this project is to implement a minimal repository abstraction that includes carefully selected core functionality, without implementing all repository actions itself. Instead it should become easy for application code on top of such an abstraction to perform those actions autonomously, while maintaining compliance with the TUF specification.
