fetch_pack() removes duplicates from the "sought" list, thereby
shrinking the list. But previously, the caller was not informed about
the shrinkage. This would cause a spurious error message to be
emitted by cmd_fetch_pack() if "git fetch-pack" is called with
duplicate refnames.
Instead, remove duplicates using string_list_remove_duplicates(),
which adjusts sought->nr to reflect the new length of the list.
The last test of t5500 inexplicably *required* "git fetch-pack" to
fail when fetching a list of references that contains duplicates;
i.e., it insisted on the buggy behavior. So change the test to expect
the correct behavior.

Once a match has been found at sought_pos, the entry is zeroed and no
future attempts will match that entry. So increment sought_pos to
avoid checking against the zeroed-out entry during the next iteration.

Instead of juggling <nr_heads,heads> (sometimes called
<nr_match,match>), pass around the list of references to be sought in
a single string_list variable called "sought". Future commits will
make more use of string_list functionality.

Document some bugs in "git fetch-pack":
1. If "git fetch-pack" is called with "--all", "--depth", and an
explicit existing non-tag reference to fetch, then it falsely reports
that the reference was not found, even though it was fetched
correctly.
2. If "git fetch-pack" is called with "--all", "--depth", and an
explicit existing tag reference to fetch, then it segfaults in
filter_refs() because return_refs is used without having been
initialized.

If "git fetch-pack" is called with reference names that do not exist
on the remote, then it should emit an error message
error: no such remote ref refs/heads/xyzzy
This is currently broken if *only* missing references are passed to
"git fetch-pack".

Add two new functions, string_list_split() and
string_list_split_in_place(). These split a string into a string_list
on a separator character. The first makes copies of the substrings
(leaving the input string untouched) and the second splits the
original string in place, overwriting the separator characters with
NULs and referring to the original string's memory.
These functions are similar to the strbuf_split_*() functions except
that they work with the more powerful string_list interface.

When a path being merged is auto detected to be a binary file, we
warned "Cannot merge binary files" before switching to activate the
binary ll-merge driver. When we are merging with the -Xours/theirs
option, however, we know what the "clean" merge result is, and the
warning is inappropriate.
In addition, when the path is explicitly marked as a binary file,
this warning was not issued, even though without -Xours/theirs, we
cannot cleanly automerge such a path, which was inconsistent.
Move the warning code from ll_xdl_merge() to ll_binary_merge(), and
issue the message only when we cannot cleanly automerge.

"git blame file" has always meant "find the origin of each line of
the file in the history leading to HEAD, oh by the way, blame the
lines that are modified locally to the working tree".
This teaches "git blame" that during a conflicted merge, some
uncommitted changes may have come from the other history that is
being merged.
The verify_working_tree_path() function introduced in the previous
patch to notice a typo in the filename (primarily on case insensitive
filesystems) has been updated to allow a filename that does not exist
in HEAD (i.e. the tip of our history) as long as it exists one of the
commits being merged, so that a "we deleted, the other side modified"
case tracks the history of the file in the history of the other side.

checkout operates in three different modes. On top of that it tries to
be smart by guessing the branch name for switching. This results in
messy option handling code. This patch reorders it so that
- cmd_checkout() is responsible for parsing, preparing input and
determining mode
- Code of each mode is in checkout_paths() and checkout_branch(),
where sanity checks are performed
Another slight improvement is always print branch name (or commit
name) when printing errors related ot them. This helps catch the case
where an option is mistaken as branch/commit.
