This merges the current version of the patch that tries to address Git
GUI's problems with intent-to-add files.
This patch will likely be improved substantially before it is merged
into Git GUI's main branch, but we want to have _something_ resembling a
fix already in Git for Windows v2.29.0.

This topic branch allows `add -p` and `add -i` with a large number of
files. It is kind of a hack that was never really meant to be
upstreamed. Let's see if we can do better in the built-in `add -p`.

When compiling Git with a runtime prefix (so that it can be installed
into any location, finding its libexec/ directory relative to the
location of the `git` executable), it is convenient to provide
"absolute" Unix-y paths e.g. for http.sslCAInfo, and have those absolute
paths be resolved relative to the runtime prefix.
This patch makes it so for Windows. It is up for discussion whether we
want this for other platforms, too, as long as building with
RUNTIME_PREFIX.

This topic branch allows us to specify absolute paths without the drive
prefix e.g. when cloning.
Example:
C:\Users\me> git clone https://github.com/git/git \upstream-git
This will clone into a new directory C:\upstream-git, in line with how
Windows interprets absolute paths.

These fixes were necessary for Sverre Rabbelier's remote-hg to work,
but for some magic reason they are not necessary for the current
remote-hg. Makes you wonder how that one gets away with it.

The archive and MinGit variants really get bloated because they handle
those as straight copies instead of hard-links.

When building the Pacman packages, we technically do not need the full
`build-installers` artifact (which is substantially larger than the
`makepkg-git` artifact). However, the former is already cached and
includes the latter's files. And it is _so_ much faster to download the
cached (larger) artifact than to download the smaller `makepkg-git`
artifact from Azure Pipelines.

It is a bit expensive to fetch just the git-sdk-64-build-installers

With this change, users can specify the branch and repository from which
they want to build Git for Windows' artifacts, via the `ref` and
`repository` inputs.
This allows e.g. building `refs/heads/seen` of `git/git` (even if no
`git-artifacts` workflow is configured in that repository), or
`refs/pull/<number>/merge` for a given Pull Request.

Users can now specify which artifacts they want to build, via the
`build_only` input, which is a space-separated list of artifacts. For
example, `installer portable` will build `installer-x86_64`,
`installer-i686`, `portable-x86_64` and `portable-i686`, and an empty or
unset value will build all artifacts.
Please note that the `mingw-w64-git` packages are built always, as it
would be tricky to figure out when they need to be built (for example,
`build_only=portable-x86_64` technically does not need `pkg-i686` to be
built, while `build_only=portable` does).

By upgrading from v1 to v2 of `actions/checkout`, we avoid fetching all
the tags and the entire history: v2 only fetches one revision by
default. This should make things a lot faster.
Note that `actions/checkout@v2` seems to be incompatible with running in
containers: https://github.com/actions/checkout/issues/151. Therefore,
we stick with v1 there.

The vcpkg_install batch file depends on the availability of a
working Git on the CMD path. This may not be present if the user
has selected the 'bash only' option during Git-for-Windows install.
Detect and tell the user about their lack of a working Git in the CMD
window.
Fixes#2348.
A separate PR https://github.com/git-for-windows/build-extra/pull/258
now highlights the recommended path setting during install.

Git's test suite is excruciatingly slow on Windows, mainly due to the
fact that it executes a lot of shell script code, and that's simply not
native to Windows.
To help with that, we established the pattern where the artifacts are
first built in one job, and then multiple test jobs run in parallel
using the artifacts built in the first job.
We take pains in transferring only the build outputs, and letting
`actions/checkout` fill in the rest of the files.
One major downside of that strategy is that the test jobs might fail to
check out the intended revision (e.g. because the branch has been
updated while the build was running, as is frequently the case with the
`seen` branch).
Let's transfer also the files tracked by Git, and skip the checkout step
in the test jobs.
