Merge branch 'nd/extended-sha1-relpath'

* nd/extended-sha1-relpath:
  get_sha1: teach ":$n:<path>" the same relative path logic
  get_sha1: support relative path ":path" syntax
  Make prefix_path() return char* without const

   ':path' (with an empty part before the colon, e.g. `:README`)
   is a special case of the syntax described next: content
   recorded in the index at the given path.
+  A path starting with './' or '../' is relative to current working directory.
+  The given path will be converted to be relative to working tree's root directory.
+  This is most useful to address a blob or tree from a commit or tree that has

   colon, followed by a path (e.g. `:0:README`); this names a blob object in the
