Resolve a package name into a `package_id`. This can return installed and available packages and allows you find out if a package is installed locally or is available in a repository.

Warning: this function is synchronous, and may block. Do not use it in GUI applications.

`client` : | a valid PkClient instance
`filters` : | a `PkBitfield` such as `PK_FILTER_ENUM_GUI` | `PK_FILTER_ENUM_FREE` or `PK_FILTER_ENUM_NONE`
`packages` : | an array of package names to resolve, e.g. "gnome-system-tools". [array zero-terminated=1]
`cancellable` : | a GCancellable or `NULL`
`progress_callback` : | the function to run when the progress changes. [scope call]
`progress_user_data` : | data to pass to `progress_callback`
`error` : | the GError to store any failure, or `NULL`
Returns : | a `PkResults` object, or NULL for error. [transfer full]

Since 0.5.3
