Replace the remaining calls of run_command_v_opt() with run_command()
calls and explict struct child_process variables. This is more verbose,
but not by much overall. The code becomes more flexible, e.g. it's easy
to extend to conditionally add a new argument.
Then remove the now unused function and its own flag names, simplifying
the run-command API.

As reported in [1] the "UNUSED(var)" macro introduced in
2174b8c75de (Merge branch 'jk/unused-annotation' into next,
2022-08-24) breaks coccinelle's parsing of our sources in files where
it occurs.
Let's instead partially go with the approach suggested in [2] of
making this not take an argument. As noted in [1] "coccinelle" will
ignore such tokens in argument lists that it doesn't know about, and
it's less of a surprise to syntax highlighters.
This undoes the "help us notice when a parameter marked as unused is

Add a "free_removed_argv_elements" member to "struct
setup_revision_opt", and use it to fix several memory leaks.
We have various memory leaks in APIs that take and munge "const
char **argv", e.g. parse_options(). Sometimes these APIs are given the
"argv" we get to the "main" function, in which case we don't leak
memory, but other times we're giving it the "v" member of a "struct
strvec" we created.
There's several potential ways to fix those sort of leaks, we could
add a "nodup" mode to "struct strvec", which would work for the cases
where we push constant strings to it. But that wouldn't work as soon
as we used strvec_pushf(), or otherwise needed to duplicate or create
a string for that "struct strvec".
Let's instead make it the responsibility of the revisions API. If it's
going to clobber elements of argv it can also free() them, which it
will now do if instructed to do so via "free_removed_argv_elements".

Partially fix the memory leak noted in in 8a534b6124 (bisect: use
argv_array API, 2011-09-13), which added the "XXX" comment seen in the
context. We can partially fix it by having the bisect_rev_setup()

As the comment notes we need to keep the construct "rev_argv" around
while the "struct rev_info" is around, which as seen in the newly
added "strvec_clear()" calls here we do after "release_revisions()".
This "partially" fixes the memory leak because we're leaking the "--"

When a run command cannot be executed or found, shells return exit code
126 or 127, respectively. Valid run commands are allowed to return
these codes as well to indicate bad revisions, though, for historical
reasons. This means typos can cause bogus bisect runs that go over the
full distance and end up reporting invalid results.
The best solution would be to reserve exit codes 126 and 127, like
71b0251cdd (Bisect run: "skip" current commit if script exit code is
125., 2007-10-26) did for 125, and abort bisect run when we get them.
That might be inconvenient for those who relied on the documentation
stating that 126 and 127 can be used for bad revisions, though.
The workaround used by this patch is to run the command on a known-good
revision and abort if we still get the same error code. This adds one
step to runs with scripts that use exit codes 126 and 127, but keeps
them supported, with one exception: It won't work with commands that
cannot recognize the (manually marked) known-good revision as such.
Run commands that use low exit codes are unaffected. Typos are reported
after executing the missing command twice and three checkouts (the first
step, the known good revision and back to the revision of the first
step).

The function was designed to return only BISECT_OK (0) or
BISECT_FAILED (-1) and no other values, but there were two issues:
- The comment misspelled BISECT_FAILED as BISECT_FAILURE, even
though the logic it described (i.e. any non-zero return should be
reported as a single BISECT_FAILED) was correct.
- It took the return value from run_command_v_opt(), and assumed it
was either -1 or 1 upon error, which is not the case; it can relay
errors from wait_or_whine(), which can report exit status of the
child process.
Translate any error return from run_command_v_opt() to BISECT_FAILED,

"git bisect start/next" in a large span of history spends a lot of
time trying to come up with exactly the half-way point; this can be
optimized by stopping when we see a commit that is close enough to
the half-way point.
* sg/bisect-approximately-halfway:
bisect: loosen halfway() check for a large number of commits
'git bisect start ...' and subsequent 'git bisect (good|bad)' commands
can take quite a while when the given/remaining revision range between
good and bad commits is big and contains a lot of merge commits, e.g.
in git.git:
$ git rev-list --count v1.6.0..v2.28.0
44284
$ time git bisect start v2.28.0 v1.6.0
Bisecting: 22141 revisions left to test after this (roughly 15 steps)
[e197c21807] unable_to_lock_die(): rename function from unable_to_lock_index_die()
real 0m15.472s
user 0m15.220s
sys 0m0.255s
The majority of the runtime is spent in do_find_bisection(), where we
try to find a commit as close as possible to the halfway point between
the bad and good revisions, i.e. a commit from which the number of
reachable commits that are in the good-bad range is half the total
number of commits in that range. So we count how many commits are
reachable in the good-bad range for each commit in that range, which
is quick and easy for a linear history, even over 300k commits in a
linear range are handled in ~0.3s on my machine. Alas, handling merge
commits is non-trivial and quite expensive as the algorithm used seems
to be quadratic, causing the long runtime shown above.
Interestingly, look at what a big difference one additional commit
can make:
$ git rev-list --count v1.6.0^..v2.28.0
44285
$ time git bisect start v2.28.0 v1.6.0^
Bisecting: 22142 revisions left to test after this (roughly 15 steps)
[565301e416] Sync with 2.1.2
real 0m5.848s
user 0m5.600s
sys 0m0.252s
The difference is caused by one of the optimizations attempting to cut
down the runtime added in 1c4fea3a40 (git-rev-list --bisect:
optimization, 2007-03-21):
Another small optimization is whenever we find a half-way commit
(that is, a commit that can reach exactly half of the commits),
we stop giving counts to remaining commits, as we will not find
any better commit than we just found.
In this second 'git bisect start' command we happen to find a commit
exactly at the halfway point and can return early, but in the first
case there is no such commit, so we can't return early and end up
counting the number of reachable commits from all commits in the
good-bad range.
However, when we have thousands of commits it's not all that important
to find the _exact_ halfway point, a few commits more or less doesn't
make any real difference for the bisection.
So let's loosen the check in the halfway() helper to consider commits
within about 0.1% of the exact halfway point as halfway as well, and
rename the function to approx_halfway() accordingly. This will allow
us to return early on a bigger good-bad range, even when there is no
commit exactly at the halfway point, thereby reducing the runtime of
the first command above considerably, from ~15s to 4.901s.
Furthermore, even if there is a commit exactly at the halfway point,
we might still stumble upon a commit within that 0.1% range before
finding the exact halfway point, allowing us to return a bit earlier,
slightly reducing the runtime of the second command from 5.848s to
5.058s. Note that this change doesn't affect good-bad ranges
containing ~2000 commits or less, because that 0.1% tolerance becomes
zero due to integer arithmetic; however, if the range is that small
then counting the reachable commits for all commits is already fast
enough anyway.
Naturally, this will likely change which commits get picked at each
bisection step, and, in turn, might change how many bisection steps
are necessary to find the first bad commit. If the number of
necessary bisection steps were to increase often, then this change
could backfire, because building and testing at each step might take
much longer than the time spared. OTOH, if the number of steps were
to decrease, then it would be a double win.
So I ran some tests to see how often that happens: picked random good
and bad starting revisions at least 50k commits apart and a random
first bad commit in between in git.git, and used 'git bisect run git
merge-base --is-ancestor HEAD $first_bad_commit' to check the number
of necessary bisection steps. After repeating all this 1000 times
both with and without this patch I found that:
- 146 cases needed one more bisection step than before, 149 cases
needed one less step, while in the remaining 705 cases the number
of steps didn't change. So the number of bisection steps does
indeed change in a non-negligible number of cases, but it seems
that the average number of steps doesn't change in the long run.
- The first 'git bisect start' command got over 3x faster in 456
cases, so this "no commit at the exact halfway point" case seems
to be common enough to care about.

cmd_bisect__helper() is intended as a temporary shim layer serving as an
interface for git-bisect.sh. This function and git-bisect.sh should
eventually be replaced by a C implementation, cmd_bisect(), serving as
an entrypoint for all "git bisect ..." shell commands: cmd_bisect() will
only parse the first token following "git bisect", and dispatch the
remaining args to the appropriate function ["bisect_start()",
"bisect_next()", etc.].
Thus, cmd_bisect__helper() should not be responsible for parsing flags
like --no-checkout. Instead, let the --no-checkout flag remain in the
argv array, so it may be evaluated alongside the other options already
parsed by bisect_start().

Code which split an argv_array call across multiple lines, like:
argv_array_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",

was recently mechanically renamed to use strvec, which results in
mis-matched indentation like:
strvec_pushl(&args, "one argument",
"another argument", "and more",
NULL);
Let's fix these up to align the arguments with the opening paren. I did
this manually by sifting through the results of:
git jump grep 'strvec_.*,$'
and liberally applying my editor's auto-format. Most of the changes are
of the form shown above, though I also normalized a few that had
originally used a single-tab indentation (rather than our usual style of
aligning with the open paren). I also rewrapped a couple of obvious
cases (e.g., where previously too-long lines became short enough to fit
on one), but I wasn't aggressive about it. In cases broken to three or
more lines, the grouping of arguments is sometimes meaningful, and it
wasn't worth my time or reviewer time to ponder each case individually.

We eventually want to drop the argv_array name and just use strvec

Because of our preprocessor compat layer, the names are interchangeable
to the compiler (so even a definition and declaration using different
names is OK).
This patch converts remaining files from the first half of the alphabet,
to keep the diff to a manageable size.
The conversion was done purely mechanically with:
git ls-files '*.c' '*.h' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/ARGV_ARRAY/STRVEC/g;
s/argv_array/strvec/g;
'
and then selectively staging files with "git add '[abcdefghjkl]*'".

Since we want to get rid of git-bisect.sh, it would be necessary to
convert those exit() calls to return statements so that errors can be
reported.
Emulate try catch in C by converting `exit(<positive-value>)` to
`return <negative-value>`. Follow POSIX conventions to return
<negative-value> to indicate error.
Turn `exit()` to `return` calls in `bisect_checkout()`.
Changes related to return values have no bad side effects on the
code that calls `bisect_checkout()`.

Create an enum called `bisect_error` with the bisecting return codes
to use in `bisect.c` libification process.
Change bisect_next_all() to make it return this enum.

Instead of using 'var == 0' in an if condition, let's use '!var' and
make 'bisect.c' more consistent with the rest of the code.

After completing a bisection, we print out the commit we found using an
internal version of diff-tree. The result is aesthetically lacking:
- it shows a raw diff, which is generally less informative for human
readers than "--stat --summary" (which we already decided was nice
for humans in format-patch's output).
- by not abbreviating hashes, the result is likely to wrap on most
people's terminals
- we don't use "-r", so if the commit touched files in a directory,
you only get to see the top-level directory mentioned
- we don't specify "--cc" or similar, so merges print nothing (not
even the commit message!)
Even though bisect might be driven by scripts, there's no reason to
consider this part of the output as machine-readable (if anything, the
initial "$hash is the first bad commit" might be parsed, but we won't
touch that here). Let's make it prettier and more informative for a
human reading the output.
While we're tweaking the options, let's also switch to using the diff
"ui" config. If we're accepting that this is human-readable output, then
we should respect the user's options for how to display it.
Note that we have to touch a few tests in t6030. These check bisection
in a corrupted repository (it's missing a subtree). They didn't fail
with the previous code, because it didn't actually recurse far enough in
the diff to find the broken tree. But now we'll see the corruption and
complain.
Adjusting the tests to expect the die() is the best fix. We still
confirm that we're able to bisect within the broken repo. And we'll
still print "$hash is the first bad commit" as usual before dying;
showing that is a reasonable outcome in a corrupt repository (and was
what might happen already, if the root tree was corrupt).

When we run our internal diff-tree to show the bisected commit, we call
init_revisions(), then load config, then setup_revisions(). But that
order is wrong: we copy the configured defaults into the rev_info struct
during the init_revisions step, so our config load wasn't actually doing
anything.

Commit e22278c0a0 (bisect: display first bad commit without forking a
new process, 2009-05-28) converted our external call to diff-tree to
an internal use of the log_tree_commit(). But rather than individually
setting options in the rev_info struct (and explaining in comments how
they map to command-line options), we can just pass the command-line
options to setup_revisions().
This is shorter, easier to change, and less likely to break if
revision.c internals change.
Note that we unconditionally set the output format to "raw". The
conditional in the original code didn't actually do anything useful,
since nobody had an opportunity to set the format to anything.

"git pack-objects" learned another algorithm to compute the set of
objects to send, that trades the resulting packfile off to save
traversal cost to favor small pushes.
* ds/push-sparse-tree-walk:
pack-objects: create GIT_TEST_PACK_SPARSE
pack-objects: create pack.useSparse setting
revision: implement sparse algorithm
list-objects: consume sparse tree walk
