1edbaac3bb tests: use test_i18n* functions to suppress false positives
The test functions test_i18ncmp and test_i18ngrep pretend success if run
under GETTEXT_POISON. By using those functions to test output which is
correctly marked as translatable, enables one to detect if the strings
newly marked for translation are from plumbing output. If they are
indeed from plumbing, the test would fail, and the string should be
unmarked, since it is not seen by users.

Thus, it is productive to not have false positives when running the test
under GETTEXT_POISON. This commit replaces normal test functions by
their i18n aware variants in use-cases know to be correctly marked for
translation, suppressing false positives.

501cf47cdd read_loose_refs(): treat NULL_SHA1 loose references as broken
NULL_SHA1 is used to indicate an "invalid object name" throughout our
code (and the code of other git implementations), so it is vastly more
likely that an on-disk reference was set to this value due to a
software bug than that NULL_SHA1 is the legitimate SHA-1 of an actual
object.  Therefore, if a loose reference has the value NULL_SHA1,
consider it to be broken.

8afc493d11 for-each-ref: report broken references correctly
If there is a loose reference file with invalid contents, "git
for-each-ref" incorrectly reports the problem as being a missing
object with name NULL_SHA1:

    $ echo '12345678' >.git/refs/heads/nonsense
    $ git for-each-ref
    fatal: missing object 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for refs/heads/nonsense

With an explicit "--format" string, it can even report that the
reference validly points at NULL_SHA1:

    $ git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname) %(refname)'
    0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 refs/heads/nonsense
    $ echo $?
    0

This has been broken since

    b7dd2d2 for-each-ref: Do not lookup objects when they will not be used (2009-05-27)

, which changed for-each-ref from using for_each_ref() to using
git_for_each_rawref() in order to avoid looking up the referred-to
objects unnecessarily. (When "git for-each-ref" is given a "--format"
string that doesn't include information about the pointed-to object,
it does not look up the object at all, which makes it considerably
faster. Iterating with DO_FOR_EACH_INCLUDE_BROKEN is essential to this
optimization because otherwise for_each_ref() would itself need to
check whether the object exists as part of its brokenness test.)

But for_each_rawref() includes broken references in the iteration, and
"git for-each-ref" doesn't itself reject references with REF_ISBROKEN.
The result is that broken references are processed *as if* they had
the value NULL_SHA1, which is the value stored in entries for broken
references.

Change "git for-each-ref" to emit warnings for references that are
REF_ISBROKEN but to otherwise skip them.

c3e23dc117 t6301: new tests of for-each-ref error handling
Add tests that for-each-ref correctly reports broken loose reference
files and references that point at missing objects. In fact, two of
these tests fail, because (1) NULL_SHA1 is not recognized as an
invalid reference value, and (2) for-each-ref doesn't respect
REF_ISBROKEN. Fixes to come.

Note that when for-each-ref is run with a --format option that doesn't
require the object to be looked up, then we should still notice if a
loose reference file is corrupt or contains NULL_SHA1, but we don't
notice if it points at a missing object because we don't do an object
lookup. This is OK.
