26c2c07059 Fix Windows version resources (#4092)
Add `FileVersion`, which is a required string ([Microsoft
documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/menurc/versioninfo-resource))
in the `StringFileInfo` block.
As not all required strings were present in the block, none were being
included.
Fixes #4090

After including the `FileVersion` string, all other defined strings are
now being included on executables.

File version information for `git.exe` has changed from:
```

I wasn't really expecting `GIT_VERSION` to contain the Git commit, I was
hoping for just `2.38.1` or `2.38.1.1`, at least for the `FileVersion`
string.

Anybody know if it's possible to concatenate the `MAJOR`, `MINOR`,
`MICRO`, and `PATCHLEVEL` fields with dots, or if there's another
variable that can be used (with or without `PATCHLEVEL`)?
Alternatively, use the complete `GIT_VERSION` for both `FileVersion` and
`ProductVersion`.

1b23d4d03e Merge pull request #3791: Various fixes around safe.directory
The first three commits are rebased versions of those in gitgitgadget/git#1215. These allow the following:

1. Fix `git config --global foo.bar <path>` from allowing the `<path>`. As a bonus, users with a config value starting with `/` will not get a warning about "old-style" paths needing a "`%(prefix)/`".

2. When in WSL, the path starts with `/` so it needs to be interpolated properly. Update the warning to include `%(prefix)/` to get the right value for WSL users. (This is specifically for using Git for Windows from Git Bash, but in a WSL directory.)

3. When using WSL, the ownership check fails and reports an error message. This is noisy, and happens even if the user has marked the path with `safe.directory`. Remove that error message.

7b8d8b5f7a MinGW: link as terminal server aware
Whith Windows 2000, Microsoft introduced a flag to the PE header to mark executables as
"terminal server aware". Windows terminal servers provide a redirected Windows directory and
redirected registry hives when launching legacy applications without this flag set. Since we
do not use any INI files in the Windows directory and don't write to the registry, we don't
need  this additional preparation. Telling the OS that we don't need this should provide
slightly improved startup times in terminal server environments.

When building for supported Windows Versions with MSVC the /TSAWARE linker flag is
automatically set, but MinGW requires us to set the --tsaware flag manually.

This partially addresses https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/3935.

4f06f5d1c4 mingw: change core.fsyncObjectFiles = 1 by default
From the documentation of said setting:

	This boolean will enable fsync() when writing object files.

	This is a total waste of time and effort on a filesystem that
	orders data writes properly, but can be useful for filesystems
	that do not use journalling (traditional UNIX filesystems) or
	that only journal metadata and not file contents (OS X’s HFS+,
	or Linux ext3 with "data=writeback").

The most common file system on Windows (NTFS) does not guarantee that
order, therefore a sudden loss of power (or any other event causing an
unclean shutdown) would cause corrupt files (i.e. files filled with
NULs). Therefore we need to change the default.

Note that the documentation makes it sound as if this causes really bad
performance. In reality, writing loose objects is something that is done
only rarely, and only a handful of files at a time.

b7f0184060 winansi: check result and Buffer before using Name
NtQueryObject under Wine can return a success but fill out no name.
In those situations, Wine will set Buffer to NULL, and set result to
the sizeof(OBJECT_NAME_INFORMATION).

Running a command such as

echo "$(git.exe --version 2>/dev/null)"

will crash due to a NULL pointer dereference when the code attempts to
null terminate the buffer, although, weirdly, removing the subshell or
redirecting stdout to a file will not trigger the crash.

Code has been added to also check Buffer and Length to ensure the check
is as robust as possible due to the current behavior being fragile at
best, and could potentially change in the future

This code is based on the behavior of NtQueryObject under wine and
reactos.

d3a4eae1a8 compat/mingw.c: do not warn when failing to get owner
In the case of Git for Windows (say, in a Git Bash window) running in a
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) directory, the GetNamedSecurityInfoW()
call in is_path_owned_By_current_side() returns an error code other than
ERROR_SUCCESS. This is consistent behavior across this boundary.

In these cases, the owner would always be different because the WSL
owner is a different entity than the Windows user.

The change here is to suppress the error message that looks like this:

  error: failed to get owner for '//wsl.localhost/...' (1)

Before this change, this warning happens for every Git command,
regardless of whether the directory is marked with safe.directory.

specifically _not_ writing anything to the object store to limit the
scope of the test case.

As in previous commits, the `big` file from previous test cases is

f98f30fb54 CMake: show Win32 and Generator_platform build-option values
Ensure key CMake option values are part of the CMake output to
facilitate user support when tool updates impact the wider CMake
actions, particularly ongoing 'improvements' in Visual Studio.

These CMake displays perform the same function as the build-options.txt
provided in the main Git for Windows. CMake is already chatty.
The setting of CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS is also reported.

Include the environment's CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS value which
may have been propogated to CMake's internal value.

Testing the CMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS processing can be difficult
in the Visual Studio environment, as it may be cached in many places.
The 'environment' may include the OS, the user shell, CMake's
own environment, along with the Visual Studio presets and caches.

See previous commit for arefacts that need removing for a clean test.

looks like 99 bytes is not really sufficient to represent e.g. the full

in the hasb bang line when installing scripts via `pip`).

Let's increase it to what is probably the maximum sensible path size:
MAX_PATH. This makes `parse_interpreter()` in line with what
`lookup_prog()` handles.

01fe138f74 cmake(): allow setting HOST_CPU for cross-compilation
Git's regular Makefile mentions that HOST_CPU should be defined when cross-compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L438-L439)

This is then used to set the GIT_HOST_CPU variable when compiling Git: 37796bca76/Makefile (L1337-L1341)

Then, when the user runs `git version --build-options`, it returns that value: 37796bca76/help.c (L658)

This commit adds the same functionality to the CMake configuration. Users can now set -DHOST_CPU= to set the target architecture.
