Although chainlint.pl has undergone a good deal of optimization during
its development -- increasing in speed significantly -- parsing and
validating 1050+ scripts and 16500+ tests via Perl is not exactly
instantaneous. However, perceived performance can be improved by taking
advantage of the fact that there is no interdependence between test
scripts or test definitions, thus parsing and validating can be done in
parallel. The number of available cores is determined automatically but
can be overridden via the --jobs option.

Finish fleshing out chainlint.pl by adding ScriptParser, a parser which
scans shell scripts for tests defined by test_expect_success() and
test_expect_failure(), plucks the test body from each definition, and
passes it to TestParser for validation. It recognizes test definitions
not only at the top-level of test scripts but also tests synthesized
within compound commands such as loops and function.

Continue fleshing out chainlint.pl by adding TestParser, a parser with
special knowledge about how Git tests should be written; for instance,
it knows that commands within a test body should be chained together
with `&&`. An upcoming parser which plucks test definitions from test
scripts will invoke TestParser for each test body it encounters.

Continue fleshing out chainlint.pl by adding a general purpose recursive

invoked directly, upcoming parser subclasses will extend its
functionality for specific purposes, such as plucking test definitions
from input scripts and applying domain-specific knowledge to perform
test validation.

Although chainlint.sed usefully identifies broken &&-chains in tests, it
has several shortcomings which include:
* only detects &&-chain breakage in subshells (one-level deep)
* does not check for broken top-level &&-chains; that task is left to
the "magic exit code 117" checker built into test-lib.sh, however,
that detection does not extend to `{...}` blocks, `$(...)`
expressions, or compound statements such as `if...fi`,
`while...done`, `case...esac`
* uses heuristics, which makes it (potentially) fallible and difficult
to tweak to handle additional real-world cases
* written in `sed` and employs advanced `sed` operators which are
probably not well-known to many programmers, thus the pool of people
who can maintain it is likely small
* manually simulates recursion into subshells which makes it much more
difficult to reason about than, say, a traditional top-down parser
* checks each test as the test is run, which can get expensive for
tests which are run repeatedly by functions or loops since their
bodies will be checked over and over (tens or hundreds of times)
unnecessarily
To address these shortcomings, begin implementing a more functional and
precise test linter which understands shell syntax and semantics rather
than employing heuristics, thus is able to recognize structural problems
with tests beyond broken &&-chains.
The new linter is written in Perl, thus should be more accessible to a
wider audience, and is structured as a traditional top-down parser which
makes it much easier to reason about, and allows it to inspect compound
statements within test bodies to any depth.
Furthermore, it can check all test definitions in the entire project in
a single invocation rather than having to be invoked once per test, and
each test definition is checked only once no matter how many times the
test is actually run.
At this stage, the new linter is just a skeleton containing boilerplate
which handles command-line options, collects and reports statistics, and
feeds its arguments -- paths of test scripts -- to a (presently)
do-nothing script parser for validation. Subsequent changes will flesh
out the functionality.

We try to write "|| return 1" (or "|| exit 1" in a subshell) at the
end of a sequence of &&-chained command in a loop of our tests, so
that a failure of any step during the earlier iteration of the loop
can properly be caught.
There is one loop in this test script that is used to compute the
expected result, that will be later compared with an actual output
produced by the "test-tool pack-mtimes" command. This particular
loop, however, is placed on the upstream side of a pipe, whose
non-zero exit code does not get noticed.
Emit a line that will never be produced by the "test-tool pack-mtimes"
to cause the later comparison to fail. As we use test_cmp to compare
this "expected output" file with the "actual output", the "error
message" we are emitting into the expected output stream will stand
out and shown to the tester.

Failures within `for` and `while` loops can go unnoticed if not detected
and signaled manually since the loop itself does not abort when a
contained command fails, nor will a failure necessarily be detected when
the loop finishes since the loop returns the exit code of the last
command it ran on the final iteration, which may not be the command
which failed. Therefore, detect and signal failures manually within
loops using the idiom `|| return 1` (or `|| exit 1` within subshells).

This test wants to verify that `git blame` errors out when asked to
blame a file _not_ in the sparse checkout. However, the very first file
it asks to blame _is_ present in the checkout, thus `test_must_fail git
blame $file` gives an unexpected result (the "blame" succeeds). This
problem went unnoticed because the test invokes `test_must_fail git
blame $file` in loop but forgets to break out of the loop early upon
failure, thus the failure gets swallowed.
Fix the test by having it not ask to blame a file present in the sparse
checkout, and instead only blame files not present, as intended. While
at it, also add the missing `|| return 1` which allowed this bug to go
unnoticed.
