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.
These two patches made it into Git for Windows v2.35.2, but not into Git
v2.35.2.

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`.

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.

At least in systems where the user is local and not an administrator
git will install in a subdirectory of %APPDATALOCAL%, so it makes
sense to also look there for the shell needed by the cmake integration
with Visual Studio.

For Windows builds >= 15063 set $env:TERM to "xterm-256color" instead of
"cygwin" because they have a more capable console system that supports
this. Also set $env:COLORTERM="truecolor" if unset.
$env:TERM is initialized so that ANSI colors in color.c work, see
29a3963484 (Win32: patch Windows environment on startup, 2012-01-15).
See git-for-windows/git#3629 regarding problems caused by always setting
$env:TERM="cygwin".
This is the same heuristic used by the Cygwin runtime.

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.

When an Administrator creates a file or directory, the created
file/directory is owned not by the Administrator SID, but by the
_Administrators Group_ SID. The reason is that users with administrator
privileges usually run in unprivileged ("non-elevated") mode, and their
user SID does not change when running in elevated mode.
This is is relevant e.g. when running a GitHub workflow on a build
agent, which runs in elevated mode: cloning a Git repository in a script
step will cause the worktree to be owned by the Administrators Group
SID, for example.
Let's handle this case as following: if the current user is an
administrator, Git should consider a worktree owned by the
Administrators Group as if it were owned by said user.

When Git refuses to use an existing repository because it is owned by
someone else than the current user, it can be a bit tricky on Windows to
figure out what is going on.
Let's help with that by offering some more information via the
environment variable `GIT_TEST_DEBUG_UNSAFE_DIRECTORIES`.

To verify that the `clean` side of the `clean`/`smudge` filter code is
correct with regards to LLP64 (read: to ensure that `size_t` is used
instead of `unsigned long`), here is a test case using a trivial filter,
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
reused if available, to save setup time, otherwise re-generated.

To complement the `--stdin` and `--literally` test cases that verify
that we can hash files larger than 4GB on 64-bit platforms using the
LLP64 data model, here is a test case that exercises `hash-object`
_without_ any options.
Just as before, we use the `big` file from the previous test case if it
exists to save on setup time, otherwise generate it.

Just like the `hash-object --literally` code path, the `--stdin` code
path also needs to use `size_t` instead of `unsigned long` to represent
memory sizes, otherwise it would cause problems on platforms using the
LLP64 data model (such as Windows).
To limit the scope of the test case, the object is explicitly not
written to the object store, nor are any filters applied.
The `big` file from the previous test case is reused to save setup time;
To avoid relying on that side effect, it is generated if it does not
exist (e.g. when running via `sh t1007-*.sh --long --run=1,41`).

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test to the hash algorithm step for LLP64 systems.
This patch lets the SHA1DC code use `size_t`, making it compatible with
LLP64 data models (as used e.g. by Windows).
The interested reader of this patch will note that we adjust the
signature of the `git_SHA1DCUpdate()` function without updating _any_
call site. This certainly puzzled at least one reviewer already, so here
is an explanation:
This function is never called directly, but always via the macro
`platform_SHA1_Update`, which is usually called via the macro
`git_SHA1_Update`. However, we never call `git_SHA1_Update()` directly
in `struct git_hash_algo`. Instead, we call `git_hash_sha1_update()`,
which is defined thusly:
static void git_hash_sha1_update(git_hash_ctx *ctx,
const void *data, size_t len)
{
git_SHA1_Update(&ctx->sha1, data, len);
}
i.e. it contains an implicit downcast from `size_t` to `unsigned long`
(before this here patch). With this patch, there is no downcast anymore.
With this patch, finally, the t1007-hash-object.sh "files over 4GB hash
literally" test case is fixed.

Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test. The `hash_object_file_literally()` function internally uses both
`hash_object_file()` and `write_object_file_prepare()`. Both function
signatures use `unsigned long` rather than `size_t` for the mem buffer
sizes. Use `size_t` instead, for LLP64 compatibility.
While at it, convert those function's object's header buffer length to
`size_t` for consistency. The value is already upcast to `uintmax_t` for
print format compatibility.
Note: The hash-object test still does not pass. A subsequent commit
continues to walk the call tree's lower level hash functions to identify
further fixes.

The previous commit adds a test that demonstrates a problem in the
`hash-object --literally` command, manifesting in an unnecessary file
size limit on systems using the LLP64 data model (which includes
Windows).
Walking the affected code path is `cmd_hash_object()` >> `hash_fd()` >>
`hash_literally()` >> `hash_object_file_literally()`.
The function `hash_object_file_literally()` is the first with a file
length parameter (via a mem buffer). This commit changes the type of
that parameter to the LLP64 compatible `size_t` type.
There are no other uses of the function. The `strbuf` type is already
`size_t` compatible.
Note: The hash-object test does not yet pass. Subsequent commits will
continue to walk the call tree's lower level functions to identify
further fixes.
