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`.

In MSYS2, we have two Python interpreters at our disposal, so we can

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.

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).

When the secrets `CODESIGN_P12` and `CODESIGN_PASS` are set, the
workflow will now code-sign the `.exe` files contained in the package.
This should help with a few anti-malware programs, at least when the
certificate saw some action and gained trust.
Note: `CODESIGN_P12` needs to be generated via
cat <certificate>.p12 | base64 | tr '\n' %

This expects the `GPGKEY` and `PRIVGPGKEY` secrets to be set in the
respective GitHub repository.
The `GPGKEY` value should be of the form
<short-key> --passphrase <pass> --yes --batch --no-tty --pinentry-mode loopback --digest-algo SHA256
and the `PRIVGPGKEY` should be generated via
gpg --export-secret-keys | base64 | tr '\n' %

Git for Windows uses MSYS2 as base system, and therefore the Git
binaries are bundled as Pacman package.
This workflow allows building the 64-bit version of this package (which
is called `mingw-w64-x86_64-git`).

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.

On Windows, there are two kinds of executables, console ones and
non-console ones. Git's executables are all console ones.
When launching the former e.g. in a scheduled task, a CMD window pops
up. This is not what we want for the tasks installed via the `git
maintenance` command.
To work around this, let's introduce `headless-git.exe`, which is a
non-console program that does _not_ pop up any window. All it does is to
re-launch `git.exe`, suppressing that console window, passing through
all command-line arguments as-are.
