This topic branch is a backport of
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/208, which avoids a lock
contention in `git gc --auto` where the `git gc` process holds a read
lock to the `commit-graph` file (if `core.commitgraph=true`) and the
spawned `git commit-graph write` (if `gc.writecommitgraph=true`) tries
to overwrite it.

The close_all_packs() method is now responsible for more than just pack-files.
It also closes the commit-graph and the multi-pack-index. Rename the function
to be more descriptive of its larger role. The name also fits because the
input parameter is a raw_object_store.

The close_all_packs() method is used to close all read handles to
pack-files and the multi-pack-index before running 'git gc --auto'.
This is particularly important on the Windows platform, where read
handles block any writes to those files. Replacing one of these
files with a rename() will fail in this situation.
The commit-graph also performs a rename, so is susceptable to this
problem. We are careful to close the commit-graph before writing,
but that doesn't work when a 'git fetch' (or similar) process runs
'git gc --auto' which may write a commit-graph.
Here, close the commit-graph as part of close_all_packs().

The close_commit_graph() method took a repository struct, but then
only uses the raw_object_store within. Change the function prototype
to make the method more flexible.

In f41179f16b (parse-options: avoid magic return codes, 2019-01-27),
the signature of the low-level parse-opt callback function was changed
to return an `enum`.
And while the implementations were changed, one declaration was left
unchanged, still claiming to return `int`.
This can potentially lead to problems, as compilers are free to choose
any integral type for an `enum` as long as it can represent all declared
values.

When this function was changed in a97d00799a (remote-curl: use

the declaration was incorrectly missing the `const` qualifier.

This fixes the issue identified in
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1498
where Git would not fall back to reading credentials from a Win32
Console when the credentials could not be read from the terminal via the
Bash hack (that is necessary to support running in a MinTTY).

The kwset functionality makes use of the obstack code, which expects to
be handed a function that can allocate large chunks of data. It expects
that function to accept a `size` parameter of type `long`.
This upsets GCC 8 on Windows, because `long` does not have the same
bit size as `size_t` there.
Now, the proper thing to do would be to switch to `size_t`. But this
would make us deviate from the "upstream" code even further, making it
hard to synchronize with newer versions, and also it would be quite
involved because that `long` type is so invasive in that code.
Let's punt, and instead provide a super small wrapper around
`xmalloc()`.

The return type of the `GetProcAddress()` function is `FARPROC` which
evaluates to `long long int (*)()`, i.e. it cannot be cast to the
correct function signature by GCC 8.
To work around that, we first cast to `void *` and go on with our merry
lives.

Git for Windows supports the core.longPaths config setting to allow
writing/reading long paths via the \\?\ trick for a long time now.
However, for that support to work, it is absolutely necessary that
git_default_config() is given a chance to parse the config. Otherwise
Git will be non the wiser.
So let's make sure that as many commands that previously failed to
parse the core.* settings now do that, implicitly enabling long path
support in a lot more places.
Note: this is not a perfect solution, and it cannot be, as there is
a chicken-and-egg problem in reading the config itself...

To support Git Bash running in a MinTTY, we use a dirty trick to access
the MSYS2 pseudo terminal: we execute a Bash snippet that accesses
/dev/tty.
The idea was to fall back to writing to/reading from CONOUT$/CONIN$ if
that Bash call failed because Bash was not found.
However, we should fall back even in other error conditions, because we
have not successfully read the user input. Let's make it so.

Previously, we did not install any handler for Ctrl+C, but now we really
want to because the MSYS2 runtime learned the trick to call the
ConsoleCtrlHandler when Ctrl+C was pressed.
With this, hitting Ctrl+C while `git log` is running will only terminate
the Git process, but not the pager. This finally matches the behavior on
Linux and on macOS.

Using FindFirstFileExW() requires the OS to allocate a 64K buffer for each
directory and then free it when we call FindClose(). Update fscache to call
the underlying kernel API NtQueryDirectoryFile so that we can do the buffer
management ourselves. That allows us to allocate a single buffer for the
lifetime of the cache and reuse it for each directory.
This change improves performance of 'git status' by 18% in a repo with ~200K
files and 30k folders.
Documentation for NtQueryDirectoryFile can be found at:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/ddi/content/ntifs/nf-ntifs-ntquerydirectoryfilehttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/FileIO/file-attribute-constantshttps://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/fileio/reparse-point-tags
To determine if the specified directory is a symbolic link, inspect the
FileAttributes member to see if the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT flag is
set. If so, EaSize will contain the reparse tag (this is a so far
undocumented feature, but confirmed by the NTFS developers). To
determine if the reparse point is a symbolic link (and not some other
form of reparse point), test whether the tag value equals the value
IO_REPARSE_TAG_SYMLINK.
The NtQueryDirectoryFile() call works best (and on Windows 8.1 and
earlier, it works *only*) with buffer sizes up to 64kB. Which is 32k
wide characters, so let's use that as our buffer size.

The TerminateProcess() function does not actually leave the child
processes any chance to perform any cleanup operations. This is bad
insofar as Git itself expects its signal handlers to run.
A symptom is e.g. a left-behind .lock file that would not be left behind
if the same operation was run, say, on Linux.
To remedy this situation, we use an obscure trick: we inject a thread
into the process that needs to be killed and to let that thread run the
ExitProcess() function with the desired exit status. Thanks J Wyman for
describing this trick.
The advantage is that the ExitProcess() function lets the atexit
handlers run. While this is still different from what Git expects (i.e.
running a signal handler), in practice Git sets up signal handlers and
atexit handlers that call the same code to clean up after itself.
In case that the gentle method to terminate the process failed, we still
fall back to calling TerminateProcess(), but in that case we now also
make sure that processes spawned by the spawned process are terminated;
TerminateProcess() does not give the spawned process a chance to do so
itself.
Please note that this change only affects how Git for Windows tries to
terminate processes spawned by Git's own executables. Third-party
software that *calls* Git and wants to terminate it *still* need to make
sure to imitate this gentle method, otherwise this patch will not have
any effect.

The Makefile target `install-mingit-test-artifacts` simply copies stuff
and things directly into a MinGit directory, including an init.bat
script to set everything up so that the tests can be run in a cmd
window.
Sadly, Git's test suite still relies on a Perl interpreter even if
compiled with NO_PERL=YesPlease. We punt for now, installing a small
script into /usr/bin/perl that hands off to an existing Perl of a Git

In the BusyBox-w32 version that is currently under consideration for
MinGit for Windows (to reduce the .zip size, and to avoid problems with
the MSYS2 runtime), the UTF-16 environment present in Windows is
considered to be authoritative, and the 8-bit version is always in UTF-8
encoding.
As a consequence, the ISO-8859-1 test in t9350-fast-export (which tries
to set GIT_AUTHOR_NAME to a ISO-8859-1 encoded value) *must* fail in
that setup.
So let's detect when it would fail (due to an environment being purely
kept UTF-8 encoded), and skip that test in that case.

On Windows, the current working directory is pretty much guaranteed to
contain a colon. If we feed that path to CVS, it mistakes it for a
separator between host and port, though.
This has not been a problem so far because Git for Windows uses MSYS2's
Bash using a POSIX emulation layer that also pretends that the current
directory is a Unix path (at least as long as we're in a shell script).
However, that is rather limiting, as Git for Windows also explores other
ports of other Unix shells. One of those is BusyBox-w32's ash, which is
a native port (i.e. *not* using any POSIX emulation layer, and certainly
not emulating Unix paths).
So let's just detect if there is a colon in $PWD and punt in that case.

Git for Windows uses MSYS2's Bash to run the test suite, which comes
with benefits but also at a heavy price: on the plus side, MSYS2's
POSIX emulation layer allows us to continue pretending that we are on a
Unix system, e.g. use Unix paths instead of Windows ones, yet this is
bought at a rather noticeable performance penalty.
There *are* some more native ports of Unix shells out there, though,
most notably BusyBox-w32's ash. These native ports do not use any POSIX
emulation layer (or at most a *very* thin one, choosing to avoid
features such as fork() that are expensive to emulate on Windows), and
they use native Windows paths (usually with forward slashes instead of
backslashes, which is perfectly legal in almost all use cases).
And here comes the problem: with a $PWD looking like, say,
C:/git-sdk-64/usr/src/git/t/trash directory.t5813-proto-disable-ssh
Git's test scripts get quite a bit confused, as their assumptions have
been shattered. Not only does this path contain a colon (oh no!), it
also does not start with a slash.
This is a problem e.g. when constructing a URL as t5813 does it:
ssh://remote$PWD. Not only is it impossible to separate the "host" from
the path with a $PWD as above, even prefixing $PWD by a slash won't
work, as /C:/git-sdk-64/... is not a valid path.
As a workaround, detect when $PWD does not start with a slash on
Windows, and simply strip the drive prefix, using an obscure feature of
Windows paths: if an absolute Windows path starts with a slash, it is
implicitly prefixed by the drive prefix of the current directory. As we
are talking about the current directory here, anyway, that strategy
works.
