These changes are necessary to support better Git for Windows' new
auto-update feature.

Since v2.9.0, Git knows about the config variable core.hookspath
that allows overriding the path to the directory containing the
Git hooks.
Since v2.10.0, the `--git-path` option respects that config
variable, too, so we may just as well use that command.
For Git versions older than v2.5.0 (which was the first version to
support the `--git-path` option for the `rev-parse` command), we
simply fall back to the previous code.

"Question?" is maybe not the most informative thing to ask. In the
absence of better information, it is the best we can do, of course.
However, Git for Windows' auto updater just learned the trick to use
git-gui--askyesno to ask the user whether to update now or not. And in
this scripted scenario, we can easily pass a command-line option to
change the window title.
So let's support that with the new `--title <title>` option.

Make use of the new environment variable GIT_ASK_YESNO to support the
recently implemented fallback in case unlink, rename or rmdir fail for
files in use on Windows. The added dialog will present a yes/no question
to the the user which will currently be used by the windows compat layer
to let the user retry a failed file operation.

The text wrapping seems to be aligned to the right side of the Yes
button, leaving an awful lot of empty space.
Let's try to counter this by using pixel units.

f1e3df3169 (t: increase test coverage of signature verification output,
2020-03-04) adds GPG dependent tests to t4202 and t6200 that were found
problematic with at least OpenBSD 6.7.
Using an escaped '|' for alternations works only in some implementations
of grep (e.g. GNU and busybox).
It is not part of POSIX[1] and not supported by some BSD, macOS, and
possibly other POSIX compatible implementations.
Use `grep -E`, and write it using extended regular expression.

This commit fixes mingw_lstat by computing the proper size for symlinks
according to POSIX. POSIX specifies that upon successful return from
lstat: "the value of the st_size member shall be set to the length of
the pathname contained in the symbolic link not including any
terminating null byte".
Prior to this commit the mingw_lstat function returned a fixed size of
4096. This caused problems in git repositories that were accessed by
git for Cygwin or git for WSL. For example, doing `git reset --hard`
using git for Windows would update the size of symlinks in the index
to be 4096; at a later time git for Cygwin or git for WSL would find
that symlinks have changed size during `git status`. Vice versa doing
`git reset --hard` in git for Cygwin or git for WSL would update the
size of symlinks in the index with the correct value, only for git for
Windows to find incorrectly at a later time that the size had changed.

To set the default hash algorithm you can set the `GIT_DEFAULT_HASH`
environment variable. In the documentation this variable is named
`GIT_DEFAULT_HASH_ALGORITHM`, which is incorrect.

This topic branch re-adds the deprecated --stdin/-z options to `git
reset`. Those patches were overridden by a different set of options in
the upstream Git project before we could propose `--stdin`.
We offered this in MinGit to applications that wanted a safer way to
pass lots of pathspecs to Git, and these applications will need to be
adjusted.
Instead of `--stdin`, `--pathspec-from-file=-` should be used, and
instead of `-z`, `--pathspec-file-nul`.
