str: introduce `git_str` for internal, `git_buf` is external
libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by
`git_buf`. We require:
1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs
for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc).
2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they
can take ownership of.
By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have
confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and
reasoning about correctness is also difficult.
Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents
its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class. The name also
is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr").
The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint. It
is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that
follow the documentation. (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to
avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.)
Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a
`git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it
back again.

config_mem: implement support for snapshots
Similar as in commit dadbb33b6 (Fix crash if snapshotting a
config_snapshot, 2019-11-01), let's implement snapshots for in-memory
configuration entries. As this deletes more code than it adds, it
doesn't make any sense to not allow for this and allows users to treat
config backends mostly the same.

config_parse: provide parser init and dispose functions
Right now, all configuration file backends are expected to
directly mess with the configuration parser's internals in order
to set it up. Let's avoid doing that by implementing both a
`git_config_parser_init` and `git_config_parser_dispose` function
to clearly define the interface between configuration backends
and the parser.
Ideally, we would make the `git_config_parser` structure
definition private to its implementation. But as that would
require an additional memory allocation that was not required
before we just live with it being visible to others.

config_parse: remove use of `git_config_file`
The config parser code needs to keep track of the current parsed
file's name so that we are able to provide proper error messages
to the user. Right now, we do that by storing a `git_config_file`
in the parser structure, but as that is a specific backend and
the parser aims to be generic, it is a layering violation.
Switch over to use a simple string to fix that.

git_error: use new names in internal APIs and usage
Move to the `git_error` name in the internal API for error-related
functions.

config: introduce new read-only in-memory backend
Now that we have abstracted away how to store and retrieve config
entries, it became trivial to implement a new in-memory backend by
making use of this. And thus we do so.
This commit implements a new read-only in-memory backend that can parse
a chunk of memory into a `git_config_backend` structure.
