Teach fsmonitor--daemon to periodically truncate the list of
modified files to save some memory.
Clients will ask for the set of changes relative to a token that they
found in the FSMN index extension in the index. (This token is like a
point in time, but different). Clients will then update the index to
contain the response token (so that subsequent commands will be
relative to this new token).
Therefore, the daemon can gradually truncate the in-memory list of
changed paths as they become obsolete (older than the previous token).
Since we may have multiple clients making concurrent requests with a
skew of tokens and clients may be racing to the talk to the daemon,
we lazily truncate the list.
We introduce a 5 minute delay and truncate batches 5 minutes after
they are considered obsolete.

Teach `test-tool.exe chmtime` to ignore errors when setting the mtime
on a directory on Windows.
NEEDSWORK: The Windows version of `utime()` (aka `mingw_utime()`) does
not properly handle directories because it uses `_wopen()`. It should
be converted to using `CreateFileW()` and backup semantics at a minimum.
Since I'm already in the middle of a large patch series, I did not want
to destabilize other callers of `utime()` right now. The problem has
only been observed in the t/perf/p7519 test when the test repo contains
an empty directory on disk.

Do not copy any of the various fsmonitor--daemon files from the .git
directory of the (GIT_PREF_REPO or GIT_PERF_LARGE_REPO) source repo
into the test's trash directory.
When perf tests start, they copy the contents of the source repo into
the test's trash directory. If fsmonitor is running in the source repo,
there may be control files, such as the IPC socket and/or fsmonitor
cookie files. These should not be copied into the test repo.
Unix domain sockets cannot be copied in the manner used by the test
setup, so if present, the test setup fails.
Cookie files are harmless, but we should avoid them.
The builtin fsmonitor keeps all such control files/sockets in
.git/fsmonitor--daemon*, so it is simple to exclude them.

Add the "feature: fsmonitor--daemon" message to the output of
`git version --build-options`.
The builtin FSMonitor is only available on certain platforms and
even then only when certain Makefile flags are enabled, so print
a message in the verbose version output when it is available.
This can be used by test scripts for prereq testing. Granted, tests
could just try `git fsmonitor--daemon status` and look for a 128 exit
code or grep for a "not supported" message on stderr, but this is
rather obscure.
The main advantage is that the feature message will automatically
appear in bug reports and other support requests.

Include MacOS system declarations to allow us to use FSEvent and
CoreFoundation APIs. We need GCC and clang versions because of
compiler and header file conflicts.
While it is quite possible to #include Apple's CoreServices.h when
compiling C source code with clang, trying to build it with GCC
currently fails with this error:

| ^~~~~
The underlying reason is that GCC (rightfully) objects that an `enum`
value such as `kAuthorizationExternalFormLength` is not a constant
(because it is not, the preprocessor has no knowledge of it, only the
actual C compiler does) and can therefore not be used to define the size
of a C array.
This is a known problem and tracked in GCC's bug tracker:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=93082
In the meantime, let's not block things and go the slightly ugly route
of declaring/defining the FSEvents constants, data structures and
functions that we need, so that we can avoid above-mentioned issue.
Let's do this _only_ for GCC, though, so that the CI/PR builds (which
build both with clang and with GCC) can guarantee that we _are_ using
the correct data types.

Teach fsmonitor--daemon to build a list of changed paths and associate
them with a token-id. This will be used by the platform-specific
backends to accumulate changed paths in response to filesystem events.
The platform-specific file system listener thread receives file system
events containing one or more changed pathnames (with whatever bucketing
or grouping that is convenient for the file system). These paths are
accumulated (without locking) by the file system layer into a `fsmonitor_batch`.
When the file system layer has drained the kernel event queue, it will
"publish" them to our token queue and make them visible to concurrent
client worker threads. The token layer is free to combine and/or de-dup
paths within these batches for efficient presentation to clients.

Teach fsmonitor--daemon to classify relative and absolute
pathnames and decide how they should be handled. This will
be used by the platform-specific backend to respond to each
filesystem event.
When we register for filesystem notifications on a directory,
we get events for everything (recursively) in the directory.
We want to report to clients changes to tracked and untracked
paths within the working directory. We do not want to report
changes within the .git directory, for example.
This classification will be used in a later commit by the
different backends to classify paths as events are received.

Implement 'git fsmonitor--daemon start' command. This command starts
an instance of 'git fsmonitor--daemon run' in the background using
the new 'start_bg_command()' function.
We avoid the fork-and-call technique on Unix systems in favor of a
fork-and-exec technique. This gives us more uniform Trace2 child-*
events. It also makes our usage more consistent with Windows usage.
On Windows, teach 'git fsmonitor--daemon run' to optionally call
'FreeConsole()' to release handles to the inherited Win32 console
(despite being passed invalid handles for stdin/out/err). Without
this, command prompts and powershell terminal windows could hang
in "exit" until the last background child process exited or released
their Win32 console handle. (This was not seen with git-bash shells
because they don't have a Win32 console attached to them.)

Get rid of the `core_fsmonitor` global variable, and add support for

The `core_fsmonitor` global variable was used to store the pathname to
the FSMonitor hook and it was used as a boolean to see if FSMonitor
was enabled. This dual usage will lead to confusion when we add
support for a builtin FSMonitor based on IPC, since the builtin
FSMonitor doesn't need the hook pathname.
Replace the boolean usage with an `enum fsmonitor_mode` to represent
the state of FSMonitor. And only set the pathname when in HOOK mode.

As well as checking that the relevant functionality is available, the
GPGSSH prerequisite check creates the SSH keys that are used by the test
functions it gates. If these keys are created in a directory that
has a default Access Control List, the key files can inherit those
permissions.
This can result in a scenario where the private keys are created
successfully, so the prerequisite check passes and the tests are run,
but the key files have permissions that are too permissive, meaning
OpenSSH will refuse to load them and the tests will fail.
To avoid this happening, before creating the keys, clear any default ACL
set on the directory that will contain them. This step allowed to fail;
if setfacl isn't present, that's a very likely indicator that the
filesystem in question simply doesn't support default ACLs.

"git pull --no-verify" did not affect the underlying "git merge".
* ar/fix-git-pull-no-verify:
pull: honor --no-verify and do not call the commit-msg hook
This fix corrects an issue found in the `dockerized(pedantic, fedora)` CI
build, first appearing after the introduction of a new version of the Fedora
docker image version. This image includes a version of `glibc` with the
attribute `__attr_access_none` added to `pthread_setspecific` [1], the
implementation of which only exists for GCC 11.X - the version included in
the Fedora image. The attribute requires that the pointer provided in the
second argument of `pthread_getspecific` must, if not NULL, be a pointer to
a valid object. In the usage in `async_die_is_recursing`, `(void *)1` is not
valid, causing the error.
This fix imitates a workaround added in SELinux [2] by using the pointer to
the static `async_die_counter` itself as the second argument to
`pthread_setspecific`. This guaranteed non-NULL, valid pointer matches the
intent of the current usage while not triggering the build error.
