buffer: fix printing into out-of-memory buffer
Before printing into a `git_buf` structure, we always call `ENSURE_SIZE`
first. This macro will reallocate the buffer as-needed depending on
whether the current amount of allocated bytes is sufficient or not. If
`asize` is big enough, then it will just do nothing, otherwise it will
call out to `git_buf_try_grow`. But in fact, it is insufficient to only
check `asize`.
When we fail to allocate any more bytes e.g. via `git_buf_try_grow`,
then we set the buffer's pointer to `git_buf__oom`. Note that we touch
neither `asize` nor `size`. So if we just check `asize > targetsize`,
then we will happily let the caller of `ENSURE_SIZE` proceed with an
out-of-memory buffer. As a result, we will print all bytes into the
out-of-memory buffer instead, resulting in an out-of-bounds write.
Fix the issue by having `ENSURE_SIZE` verify that the buffer is not
marked as OOM. Add a test to verify that we're not writing into the OOM
buffer.

buffer: fix infinite loop when growing buffers
When growing buffers, we repeatedly multiply the currently allocated
number of bytes by 1.5 until it exceeds the requested number of bytes.
This has two major problems:
1. If the current number of bytes is tiny and one wishes to resize
to a comparatively huge number of bytes, then we may need to loop
thousands of times.
2. If resizing to a value close to `SIZE_MAX` (which would fail
anyway), then we probably hit an infinite loop as multiplying the
current amount of bytes will repeatedly result in integer
overflows.
When reallocating buffers, one typically chooses values close to 1.5 to
enable re-use of resulting memory holes in later reallocations. But
because of this, it really only makes sense to use a factor of 1.5
_once_, but not looping until we finally are able to fit it. Thus, we
can completely avoid the loop and just opt for the much simpler
algorithm of multiplying with 1.5 once and, if the result doesn't fit,
just use the target size. This avoids both problems of looping
extensively and hitting overflows.
This commit also adds a test that would've previously resulted in an
infinite loop.

buffer: fix memory leak if unable to grow buffer
If growing a buffer fails, we set its pointer to the static
`git_buf__oom` structure. While we correctly free the old pointer if
`git__malloc` returned an error, we do not free it if there was an
integer overflow while calculating the new allocation size. Fix this
issue by freeing the pointer to plug the memory leak.

buffer: return errors for `git_buf_init` and `git_buf_attach`
Both the `git_buf_init` and `git_buf_attach` functions may call
`git_buf_grow` in case they were given an allocation length as
parameter. As such, it is possible for these functions to fail when we
run out of memory. While it won't probably be used anytime soon, it does
indeed make sense to also record this fact by returning an error code
from both functions. As they belong to the internal API only, this
change does not break our interface.

buffer: consistently use `ENSURE_SIZE` to grow buffers on-demand
The `ENSURE_SIZE` macro can be used to grow a buffer if its currently
allocated size does not suffice a required target size. While most of
the code already uses this macro, the `git_buf_join` and `git_buf_join3`
functions do not yet use it. Due to the macro first checking whether we
have to grow the buffer at all, this has the benefit of saving a
function call when it is not needed. While this is nice to have, it will
probably not matter at all performance-wise -- instead, this only serves
for consistency across the code.

buffer: fix `ENSURE_SIZE` macro referencing wrong variable
While the `ENSURE_SIZE` macro gets a reference to both the buffer that
is to be resized and a new size, we were not consistently referencing
the passed buffer, but instead a variable `buf`, which is not passed in.
Funnily enough, we never noticed because our buffers seem to always be
named `buf` whenever the macro was being used.
Fix the macro by always using the passed-in buffer. While at it, add
braces around all mentions of passed-in variables as should be done with
macros to avoid subtle errors.

buffer: don't allow growing borrowed buffers
When we don't own a buffer (asize=0) we currently allow the usage of
grow to copy the memory into a buffer we do own. This muddles the
meaning of grow, and lets us be a bit cavalier with ownership semantics.
Don't allow this any more. Usage of grow should be restricted to buffers
which we know own their own memory. If unsure, we must not attempt to
modify it.

Merge git_buf and git_buffer
This makes the git_buf struct that was used internally into an
externally available structure and eliminates the git_buffer.
As part of that, some of the special cases that arose with the
externally used git_buffer were blended into the git_buf, such as
being careful about git_buf objects that may have a NULL ptr and
allowing for bufs with a valid ptr and size but zero asize as a
way of referring to externally owned data.

Consolidate text buffer functions
There are many scattered functions that look into the contents of
buffers to do various text manipulations (such as escaping or
unescaping data, calculating text stats, guessing if content is
binary, etc). This groups all those functions together into a
new file and converts the code to use that.
This has two enhancements to existing functionality. The old
text stats function is significantly rewritten and the BOM
detection code was extended (although largely we can't deal with
anything other than a UTF8 BOM).

Ranged iterators and rewritten git_status_file
The goal of this work is to rewrite git_status_file to use the
same underlying code as git_status_foreach.
This is done in 3 phases:
1. Extend iterators to allow ranged iteration with start and
end prefixes for the range of file names to be covered.
2. Improve diff so that when there is a pathspec and there is
a common non-wildcard prefix of the pathspec, it will use
ranged iterators to minimize excess iteration.
3. Rewrite git_status_file to call git_status_foreach_ext
with a pathspec that covers just the one file being checked.
Since ranged iterators underlie the status & diff implementation,
this is actually fairly efficient. The workdir iterator does
end up loading the contents of all the directories down to the
single file, which should ideally be avoided, but it is pretty
good.

Implement git_pool paged memory allocator
This adds a `git_pool` object that can do simple paged memory
allocation with free for the entire pool at once. Using this,
you can replace many small allocations with large blocks that
can then cheaply be doled out in small pieces. This is best
used when you plan to free the small blocks all at once - for
example, if they represent the parsed state from a file or data
stream that are either all kept or all discarded.
There are two real patterns of usage for `git_pools`: either
for "string" allocation, where the item size is a single byte
and you end up just packing the allocations in together, or for
"fixed size" allocation where you are allocating a large object
(e.g. a `git_oid`) and you generally just allocation single
objects that can be tightly packed. Of course, you can use it
for other things, but those two cases are the easiest.

buffer: Unify `git_fbuffer` and `git_buf`
This makes so much sense that I can't believe it hasn't been done
before. Kill the old `git_fbuffer` and read files straight into
`git_buf` objects.
Also: In order to fully support 4GB files in 32-bit systems, the
`git_buf` implementation has been changed from using `ssize_t` for
storage and storing negative values on allocation failure, to using
`size_t` and changing the buffer pointer to a magical pointer on
allocation failure.
Hopefully this won't break anything.

filter: Apply filters before writing a file to the ODB
Initial implementation. The relevant code is in `blob.c`: the blob write
function has been split into smaller functions.
- Directly write a file to the ODB in streaming mode
- Directly write a symlink to the ODB in direct mode
- Apply a filter, and write a file to the ODB in direct mode
When trying to write a file, we first call `git_filter__load_for_file`,
which populates a filters array with the required filters based on the
filename.
If no filters are resolved to the filename, we can write to the ODB in
streaming mode straight from disk. Otherwise, we load the whole file in
memory and use double-buffering to apply the filter chain. We finish
by writing the file as a whole to the ODB.

Uniform iterators for trees, index, and workdir
This create a new git_iterator type of object that provides a
uniform interface for iterating over the index, an arbitrary
tree, or the working directory of a repository.
As part of this, git ignore support was extended to support
push and pop of directory-based ignore files as the working
directory is being traversed (so the array of ignores does
not have to be recreated at each directory during traveral).
There are a number of other small utility functions in buffer,
path, vector, and fileops that are included in this patch
that made the iterator implementation cleaner.

makes it safe to self join, at least for the leading input to
the join, which is the common "append" case for self joins.
Also added unit tests to explicitly cover this case.
This should actually fix #511

Use git_buf for path storage instead of stack-based buffers
This converts virtually all of the places that allocate GIT_PATH_MAX
buffers on the stack for manipulating paths to use git_buf objects
instead. The patch is pretty careful not to touch the public API
for libgit2, so there are a few places that still use GIT_PATH_MAX.
This extends and changes some details of the git_buf implementation
to add a couple of extra functions and to make error handling easier.
This includes serious alterations to all the path.c functions, and
several of the fileops.c ones, too. Also, there are a number of new
functions that parallel existing ones except that use a git_buf
instead of a stack-based buffer (such as git_config_find_global_r
that exists alongsize git_config_find_global).
This also modifies the win32 version of p_realpath to allocate whatever
buffer size is needed to accommodate the realpath instead of hardcoding
a GIT_PATH_MAX limit, but that change needs to be tested still.

Optimized of git_buf_join.
This streamlines git_buf_join and removes the join-append behavior,
opting instead for a very compact join-replace of the git_buf contents.
The unit tests had to be updated to remove the join-append tests and
have a bunch more exhaustive tests added.

Make initial value of git_buf ptr always be a valid empty string.
Taking a page from core git's strbuf, this introduces git_buf_initbuf
which is an empty string that is used to initialize the git_buf ptr
value even for new buffers. Now the git_buf ptr will always point to
a valid NUL-terminated string.
This change required jumping through a few hoops for git_buf_grow
and git_buf_free to distinguish between a actual allocated buffer
and the global initial value. Also, this moves the allocation
related functions to be next to each other near the top of buffer.c.

Make git_buf functions always maintain a valid cstr.
At a tiny cost of 1 extra byte per allocation, this makes
git_buf_cstr into basically a noop, which simplifies error
checking when trying to convert things to use dynamic allocation.
This patch also adds a new function (git_buf_copy_cstr) for copying
the cstr data directly into an external buffer.

Add two string git_buf_join and tweak input error checking.
This commit addresses two of the comments:
* renamed existing n-input git_buf_join to git_buf_join_n
* added new git_buf_join that always takes two inputs
* moved some parameter error checking to asserts
* extended unit tests to cover new version of git_buf_join

Extend git_buf with new utility functions and unit tests.
Add new functions to git_buf for:
* initializing a buffer from a string
* joining one or more strings onto a buffer with separators
* swapping two buffers in place
* extracting data from a git_buf (leaving it empty)
Also, make git_buf_free leave a git_buf back in its initted state,
and slightly tweak buffer allocation sizes and thresholds.
Finally, port unit tests to clay and extend with lots of new tests
for the various git_buf functions.

Cleanup legal data
1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.

odb: Direct writes are back
DIRECT WRITES ARE BACK AND FASTER THAN EVER. The streaming writer to the
ODB was an overkill for the smaller objects like Commit and Tags; most
of the streaming logic was taking too long.
This commit makes Commits, Tags and Trees to be built-up in memory, and
then written to disk in 2 pushes (header + data), instead of streaming
everything.
This is *always* faster, even for big files (since the git_filebuf class
still does streaming writes when the memory cache overflows). This is
also a gazillion lines of code smaller, because we don't have to
precompute the final size of the object before starting the stream (this
was kind of defeating the point of streaming, anyway).
Blobs are still written with full streaming instead of loading them in
memory, since this is still the fastest way.
A new `git_buf` class has been added. It's missing some features, but
it'll get there.
