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.

fileops: rename to "futils.h" to match function signatures
Our file utils functions all have a "futils" prefix, e.g.
`git_futils_touch`. One would thus naturally guess that their
definitions and implementation would live in files "futils.h" and
"futils.c", respectively, but in fact they live in "fileops.h".
Rename the files to match expectations.

submodule: also validate Windows-separated paths for validity
Otherwise we would also admit `..\..\foo\bar` as a valid path and fail to
protect Windows users.
Ideally we would check for both separators without the need for the copied
string, but this'll get us over the RCE.

submodule: ignore submodules which include path traversal in their name
If the we decide that the "name" of the submodule (i.e. its path inside
`.git/modules/`) is trying to escape that directory or otherwise trick us, we
ignore the configuration for that submodule.
This leaves us with a half-configured submodule when looking it up by path, but
it's the same result as if the configuration really were missing.
The name check is potentially more strict than it needs to be, but it lets us
re-use the check we're doing for the checkout. The function that encapsulates
this logic is ready to be exported but we don't want to do that in a security
release so it remains internal for now.

submodule: add a failing test for a submodule escaping .git/modules
We should pretend such submdules do not exist as it can lead to RCE.
