Hopefully in some not so distant future, we'll get advantages from always
initializing the "repo" member of the "struct index_state". To make
that easier let's introduce an initialization macro & function.
The various ad-hoc initialization of the structure can then be changed
over to it, and we can remove the various "0" assignments in
discard_index() in favor of calling index_state_init() at the end.
While not strictly necessary, let's also change the CALLOC_ARRAY() of
various "struct index_state *" to use an ALLOC_ARRAY() followed by
index_state_init() instead.
We're then adding the release_index() function and converting some
callers (including some of these allocations) over to it if they
either won't need to use their "struct index_state" again, or are just
about to call index_state_init().

expand_show_tree() borrows the base strbuf given to us by read_tree() to
build the full path of the current entry when handling %(path). Only
its indirect caller, show_tree_fmt(), removes the added entry name.
That works fine as long as %(path) is only included once in the format
string, but accumulates duplicates if it's repeated:
$ git ls-tree --format='%(path) %(path) %(path)' HEAD M*

The contents of the .gitattributes files may evolve over time, but "git
check-attr" always checks attributes against them in the working tree
and/or in the index. It may be beneficial to optionally allow the users
to check attributes taken from a commit other than HEAD against paths.
Add a new flag `--source` which will allow users to check the
attributes against a commit (actually any tree-ish would do). When the
user uses this flag, we go through the stack of .gitattributes files but
instead of checking the current working tree and/or in the index, we
check the blobs from the provided tree-ish object. This allows the
command to also be used in bare repositories.
Since we use a tree-ish object, the user can pass "--source
HEAD:subdirectory" and all the attributes will be looked up as if
subdirectory was the root directory of the repository.
We cannot simply use the `<rev>:<path>` syntax without the `--source`
flag, similar to how it is used in `git show` because any non-flag
parameter before `--` is treated as an attribute and any parameter after
`--` is treated as a pathname.
The change involves creating a new function `read_attr_from_blob`, which
given the path reads the blob for the path against the provided source and
parses the attributes line by line. This function is plugged into
`read_attr()` function wherein we go through the stack of attributes
files.

As noted in [1] the code that made it in as part of
9c4d58ff2c (ls-tree: split up "fast path" callbacks, 2022-03-23) was
a "maybe a good idea, maybe not" RFC-quality patch. I hadn't looked
very carefully at the resulting patterns.
The implementation shared the "struct show_tree_data data", which was
introduced in e81517155e (ls-tree: introduce struct "show_tree_data",
2022-03-23) both for use in 455923e0a1 (ls-tree: introduce "--format"
option, 2022-03-23), and because the "fat" callback hadn't been split
up as 9c4d58ff2c did.
Now that that's been done we can see that most of what
show_tree_common() was doing could be done lazily by the callbacks
themselves, who in the pre-image were often using an odd mis-match of
their own arguments and those same arguments stuck into the "data"
structure. Let's also have the callers initialize the "type", rather
than grabbing it from the "data" structure afterwards.

Once upon a time, there was this idea that Git would not actually be a
single coherent program, but rather a set of low-level programs that
users cobble together via shell scripts, or develop high-level user
interfaces for Git, or both.
Cogito was such a high-level user interface, incidentally implemented
via shell scripts that cobble together Git calls.
It did turn out relatively quickly that Git would much rather provide a
useful high-level user interface itself.
As of April 19th, 2007, Cogito was therefore discontinued (see
https://lore.kernel.org/git/20070419124648.GL4489@pasky.or.cz/).
Nevertheless, for almost 15 years after that announcement, Git carried
special code in `git bisect` to accommodate Cogito.
Since it is beyond doubt that there are no more Cogito users, let's
remove the last remnant of Cogito-accommodating code.

As with the previous patch, using skip_prefix() is more readable and
less error-prone than a raw strncmp(), because it avoids a
manually-computed length. These cases differ from the previous patch
that uses starts_with() because they care about the value after the
matched prefix.
We can convert these to use skip_prefix() by introducing an extra
variable to hold the out-pointer.
Note in the case in ws.c that to get rid of the magic number "9"
completely, we also switch out "len" for recomputing the pointer
difference. These are equivalent because "len" is always "ep - string".

It's more readable to use starts_with() instead of strncmp() to match a
prefix, as the latter requires a manually-computed length, and has the
funny "matching is zero" return value common to cmp functions. This
patch converts several cases which were found with:
git grep 'strncmp(.*, [0-9]*)'
But note that it doesn't convert all such cases. There are several where
the magic length number is repeated elsewhere in the code, like:
/* handle "buf" which isn't NUL-terminated and might be too small */
if (len >= 3 && !strncmp(buf, "foo", 3))
or:
/* exact match for "foo", but within a larger string */
if (end - buf == 3 && !strncmp(buf, "foo", 3))
While it would not produce the wrong outcome to use starts_with() in
these cases, we'd still be left with one instance of "3". We're better
to leave them for now, as the repeated "3" makes it clear that the two
are linked (there may be other refactorings that handle both, but
they're out of scope for this patch).
A few things to note while reading the patch:
- all cases but one are trying to match, and so lose the extra "!".
The case in the first hunk of urlmatch.c is not-matching, and hence
gains a "!".
- the case in remote-fd.c is matching the beginning of "connect foo",
but we never look at str+8 to parse the "foo" part (which would make
this a candidate for skip_prefix(), not starts_with()). This seems
at first glance like a bug, but is a limitation of how remote-fd
works.
- the second hunk in urlmatch.c shows some cases adjacent to other
strncmp() calls that are left. These are of the "exact match within
a larger string" type, as described above.

The "--super-prefix" option to "git" was initially added in [1] for
use with "ls-files"[2], and shortly thereafter "submodule--helper"[3]
and "grep"[4]. It wasn't until [5] that "read-tree" made use of it.
At the time [5] made sense, but since then we've made "ls-files"
recurse in-process in [6], "grep" in [7], and finally
"submodule--helper" in the preceding commits.
Let's also remove it from "read-tree", which allows us to remove the
option to "git" itself.
We can do this because the only remaining user of it is the submodule
API, which will now invoke "read-tree" with its new "--super-prefix"
option. It will only do so when the "submodule_move_head()" function
is called.
That "submodule_move_head()" function was then only invoked by
"read-tree" itself, but now rather than setting an environment
variable to pass "--super-prefix" between cmd_read_tree() we:
- Set a new "super_prefix" in "struct unpack_trees_options". The
"super_prefixed()" function in "unpack-trees.c" added in [5] will now
use this, rather than get_super_prefix() looking up the environment
variable we set earlier in the same process.
- Add the same field to the "struct checkout", which is only needed to
ferry the "super_prefix" in the "struct unpack_trees_options" all the
way down to the "entry.c" callers of "submodule_move_head()".
Those calls which used the super prefix all originated in
"cmd_read_tree()". The only other caller is the "unlink_entry()"
caller in "builtin/checkout.c", which now passes a "NULL".

The "--super-prefix" facility was introduced in [1] has always been a
transitory hack, which is why we've made it an error to supply it as
an option to "git" to commands that don't know about it.
That's been a good goal, as it has a global effect we haven't wanted
calls to get_super_prefix() from built-ins we didn't expect.
But it has meant that when we've had chains of different built-ins
using it all of the processes in that "chain" have needed to support
it, and worse processes that don't need it have needed to ask for
"SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX" because their parent process needs it.
That's how "fsmonitor--daemon" ended up with it, per [2] it's called
from (among other things) "submodule--helper absorbgitdirs", but as we
declared "submodule--helper" as "SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX" we needed to
declare "fsmonitor--daemon" as accepting it too, even though it
doesn't care about it.
But in the case of "absorbgitdirs" it only needed "--super-prefix" to
invoke itself recursively, and we'd never have another "in-between"
process in the chain. So we didn't need the bigger hammer of "git
--super-prefix", and the "setenv(GIT_SUPER_PREFIX_ENVIRONMENT, ...)"
that it entails.
Let's instead accept a hidden "--super-prefix" option to
"submodule--helper absorbgitdirs" itself.
Eventually (as with all other "--super-prefix" users) we'll want to
clean this code up so that this all happens in-process. I.e. needing
any variant of "--super-prefix" is itself a hack around our various
global state, and implicit reliance on "the_repository". This stepping
stone makes such an eventual change easier, as we'll need to deal with
less global state at that point.
The "fsmonitor--daemon" test adjusted here was added in [3]. To assert
that it didn't run into the "--super-prefix" message it was asserting
the output it didn't have. Let's instead assert the full output that
we *do* have, using the same pattern as a preceding change to
"t/t7412-submodule-absorbgitdirs.sh" used.
We could also remove the test entirely (as [4] did), but even though
the initial reason for having it is gone we're still getting some
marginal benefit from testing the "fsmonitor" and "submodule
absorbgitdirs" interaction, so let's keep it.
The change here to have either a NULL or non-"" string as a
"super_prefix" instead of the previous arrangement of "" or non-"" is
somewhat arbitrary. We could also decide to never have to check for
NULL.
As we'll be changing the rest of the "git --super-prefix" users to the
same pattern, leaving them all consistent makes sense. Why not pick ""
over NULL? Because that's how the "prefix" works[5], and having
"prefix" and "super_prefix" work the same way will be less
confusing. That "prefix" picked NULL instead of "" is itself
arbitrary, but as it's easy to make this small bit of our overall API
consistent, let's go with that.

Start passing the "super_prefix" along as a parameter to
get_submodule_displaypath() and absorb_git_dir_into_superproject(),
rather than get the value directly as a global.
This is in preparation for subsequent commits, where we'll gradually
phase out get_super_prefix() for an alternative way of getting the
"super_prefix".
Most of the users of this get a get_super_prefix() value, either
directly or by indirection. The exceptions are:
- builtin/rm.c: Doesn't declare SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX, so we'd have
died if this was provided, so it's safe to pass "NULL".
- deinit_submodule(): The "deinit_submodule()" function has never been
able to use the "git -super-prefix". It will call
"absorb_git_dir_into_superproject()", but it will only do so from the
top-level project.
If "absorbgitdirs" recurses will use the "path" passed to
"absorb_git_dir_into_superproject()" in "deinit_submodule()" as its
starting "--super-prefix". So we can safely remove the
get_super_prefix() call here, and pass NULL instead.

mboxrd is a more robust output format when used with --stdout
and needs more exposure. Introducing this config knob lets
users choose the more robust format for all their --stdout
uses.
Relying on --pretty=mboxrd and including all of pretty-formats.txt
in the `git format-patch' documentation would likely be
confusing to users. Furthermore, this setting is useful across
multiple invocations. So introduce `format.mboxrd' as a boolean
configuration knob that changes the default --pretty=email format
to --pretty=mboxrd when (and only when) --stdout is in use.
