Even if CMake is not the canonical way to build Git for Windows, but
CMake support merely exists in Git to support building Git for Windows
using Visual Studio, we should include `headless-git` in such a scenario
when installing the binaries to a given location.
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.

There seems to be some internal stack overflow detection in MSVC's
`malloc()` machinery that seems to be independent of the `stack reserve`
and `heap reserve` sizes specified in the executable (editable via
`EDITBIN /STACK:<n> <exe>` and `EDITBIN /HEAP:<n> <exe>`).
In the newly test cases added by `jk/tree-name-and-depth-limit`, this
stack overflow detection is unfortunately triggered before Git can print
out the error message about too-deep trees and exit gracefully. Instead,
it exits with `STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW`. This corresponds to the numeric
value -1073741571, something the MSYS2 runtime we sadly need to use to
run Git's test suite cannot handle and which it internally maps to the
exit code 127. Git's test suite, in turn, mistakes this to mean that the
command was not found, and fails both test cases.

I verified manually that `traverse_trees_cur_depth` was 562 when that
happened, which is far below the 2048 that were already accepted into
Git as a hard limit.
Despite many attempts to figure out which of the internals trigger this
`STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW` and how to maybe increase certain sizes to avoid
running into this issue and let Git behave the same way as under Linux,
I failed to find any build-time/runtime knob we could turn to that
effect.
Note: even switching to using a different allocator (I used mimalloc
because that's what Git for Windows uses for its GCC builds) does not
help, as the zlib code used to unpack compressed pack entries _still_
uses the regular `malloc()`. And runs into the same issue.
Note also: switching to using a different allocator _also_ for zlib code
seems _also_ not to help. I tried that, and it still exited with
`STATUS_STACK_OVERFLOW` that seems to have been triggered by a
`mi_assert_internal()`, i.e. an internal assertion of mimalloc...
So the best bet to work around this for now seems to just lower the
maximum allowed tree depth _even further_ for MSVC builds.

The native Windows HTTPS backend is based on Secure Channel which lets
the caller decide how to handle revocation checking problems caused by
missing information in the certificate or offline CRL distribution
points.
Unfortunately, cURL chose to handle these problems differently than
OpenSSL by default: while OpenSSL happily ignores those problems
(essentially saying "¯\_(ツ)_/¯"), the Secure Channel backend will error
out instead.
As a remedy, the "no revoke" mode was introduced, which turns off
revocation checking altogether. This is a bit heavy-handed. We support
this via the `http.schannelCheckRevoke` setting.
In https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/4981, we contributed an opt-in
"best effort" strategy that emulates what OpenSSL seems to do.
In Git for Windows, we actually want this to be the default. This patch
makes it so, introducing it as a new value for the
`http.schannelCheckRevoke" setting, which now becmes a tristate: it
accepts the values "false", "true" or "best-effort" (defaulting to the
last one).

It already caused problems with the test suite that the directory
containing `git.vcxproj` is called the same as the Git executable
without its file extension: `./git` is ambiguous, it could refer both to
the directory `git/` as well as to `git.exe`.
Now there is one more problem: when our GitHub workflow runs on the
`vs/master` branch, it fails in all but the Windows builds, as they want
to write the file `git` but there is already a directory in the way.
Let's just go ahead and append `.proj` to all of those directories, e.g.
`git.proj/` instead of `git/`.

Internally, Git expects the environment variable `HOME` to be set, and
to point to the current user's home directory.
This environment variable is not set by default on Windows, and
therefore Git tries its best to construct one if it finds `HOME` unset.
There are actually two different approaches Git tries: first, it looks
at `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` because this is widely used in corporate
environments with roaming profiles, and a user generally wants their
global Git settings to be in a roaming profile.
Only when `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` is either unset or does not point to a
valid location, Git will fall back to using `USERPROFILE` instead.
However, starting with Windows Vista, for secondary logons and services,
the environment variables `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` point to Windows'
system directory (usually `C:\Windows\system32`).
That is undesirable, and that location is usually write-protected anyway.
So let's verify that the `HOMEDRIVE`/`HOMEPATH` combo does not point to
Windows' system directory before using it, falling back to `USERPROFILE`
if it does.

As pointed out in https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1676,
the `git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree` command currently fails when
the current directory's path contains symbolic links.
The underlying reason for this bug is that `getcwd()` is supposed to
resolve symbolic links, but our `mingw_getcwd()` implementation did not.
We do have all the building blocks for that, though: the
`GetFinalPathByHandleW()` function will resolve symbolic links. However,
we only called that function if `GetLongPathNameW()` failed, for
historical reasons: the latter function was supported for a long time,
but the former API function was introduced only with Windows Vista, and
we used to support also Windows XP. With that support having been
dropped, we are free to call the symbolic link-resolving function right
away.

The winsock2 library provides functions that work on different data

But that is not the only difference: they also do not set `errno` but

operations fail so that Git's code base does not have to change its
expectations.
