expect failures under a limited stack situation. This has been
fixed.
* Many codepaths have been updated to squelch -Wimplicit-fallthrough
warnings from Gcc 7 (which is a good code hygiene).
* Add a helper for DLL loading in anticipation for its need in a
future topic RSN.
Also contains various documentation updates and code clean-ups.

alternate object stores overrun the end of the string.

* "git describe --match" learned to take multiple patterns in v2.13
series, but the feature ignored the patterns after the first one
and did not work at all. This has been fixed.
(merge da769d2986 jk/describe-omit-some-refs later to maint).
* "git filter-branch" cannot reproduce a history with a tag without
the tagger field, which only ancient versions of Git allowed to be
created. This has been corrected.
(merge b2c1ca6b4b ic/fix-filter-branch-to-handle-tag-without-tagger later to maint).
* "git cat-file --textconv" started segfaulting recently, which
has been corrected.
(merge cc0ea7c9e5 jk/diff-blob later to maint).
* The built-in pattern to detect the "function header" for HTML did
not match <H1>..<H6> elements without any attributes, which has
been fixed.
(merge 9c03caca2c ik/userdiff-html-h-element-fix later to maint).
* "git mailinfo" was loose in decoding quoted printable and produced
garbage when the two letters after the equal sign are not
hexadecimal. This has been fixed.
(merge c8cf423eab rs/mailinfo-qp-decode-fix later to maint).
* The machinery to create xdelta used in pack files received the
sizes of the data in size_t, but lost the higher bits of them by
storing them in "unsigned int" during the computation, which is
fixed.
* The delta format used in the packfile cannot reference data at
offset larger than what can be expressed in 4-byte, but the
generator for the data failed to make sure the offset does not
overflow. This has been corrected.
* The documentation for '-X<option>' for merges was misleadingly
written to suggest that "-s theirs" exists, which is not the case.
(merge c25d98b2a7 jc/merge-x-theirs-docfix later to maint).
* Other minor doc, test and build updates and code cleanups.
