path: separate git-specific path functions from util
Introduce `git_fs_path`, which operates on generic filesystem paths.
`git_path` will be kept for only git-specific path functionality (for
example, checking for `.git` in a path).

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.

repository: make check if repo is a worktree more strict
To determine if a repository is a worktree or not, we currently check
for the existence of a "gitdir" file inside of the repository's gitdir.
While this is sufficient for non-broken repositories, we have at least
one case of a subtly broken repository where there exists a gitdir file
inside of a gitmodule. This will cause us to misidentify the submodule
as a worktree.
While this is not really a fault of ours, we can do better here by
observing that a repository can only ever be a worktree iff its common
directory and dotgit directory are different. This allows us to make our
check whether a repo is a worktree or not more strict by doing a simple
string comparison of these two directories. This will also allow us to
do the right thing in the above case of a broken repository, as for
submodules these directories will be the same. At the same time, this
allows us to skip the `stat` check for the "gitdir" file for most
repositories.
