As a general principle, we should not use "git diff" to validate the
results of what git command that is being tested has done. We would not
know if we are testing the command in question, or locating a bug in the
cute hack of "git diff --no-index".
Rather use test_cmp for that purpose.

Many scripts compare actual and expected output using
"diff -u". This is nicer than "cmp" because the output shows
how the two differ. However, not all versions of diff
understand -u, leading to unnecessary test failure.
This adds a test_cmp function to the test scripts and
switches all "diff -u" invocations to use it. The function
uses the contents of "$GIT_TEST_CMP" to compare its
arguments; the default is "diff -u".
On systems with a less-capable diff, you can do:
GIT_TEST_CMP=cmp make test

System V versions of grep (such as Solaris /usr/bin/grep)
don't understand either of these options. git's usage of
"grep -e pattern" fell into one of two categories:
1. equivalent to "grep pattern". -e is only useful here if
the pattern begins with a "-", but all of the patterns
are hardcoded and do not begin with a dash.
2. stripping comments and blank lines with
grep -v -e "^$" -e "^#"
We can fortunately do this in the affirmative as
grep '^[^#]'
Uses of "-q" can be replaced with redirection to /dev/null.
In many tests, however, "grep -q" is used as "if this string
is in the expected output, we are OK". In this case, it is
fine to just remove the "-q" entirely; it simply makes the
"verbose" mode of the test slightly more verbose.

There may still be some entries from the original index that
should be discarded before we show the status. In
particular, if a file was added in the index but not
included in the partial commit, it would still show up in
the status listing as staged for commit.
Ultimately the correct fix is to keep the two states in
separate index_state variables. Then we can avoid having
to reload the cache from the temporary file altogether, and
just point wt_status_print at the correct index.

It makes no sense to suggest "git reset HEAD" since we have
no HEAD commit. This actually used to work but regressed in
f26a0012.
wt_status_print_cached_header was updated to take the whole
wt_status struct rather than just the reference field.
Previously the various code paths were sometimes sending in
s->reference and sometimes sending in NULL, making the
decision on whether this was an initial commit before we
even got to this function. Now we must check the initial
flag here.

The output of git-status was recently changed to output relative
paths. Setting this variable to false restores the old behavior for
any old-timers that prefer it.

The code tries to collapse identical leading components
between the prefix and the path. So if we're in "dir1", the
path "dir1/file" should become just "file". However, we were
ending up with "../dir1/file". The included test expected
the wrong output.
The "len" parameter to quote_path can be negative to mean
"this is a NUL terminated string". Simply count it so that
the loop can rely on it being the length of the path.

To show the relative paths, the function formerly called quote_crlf()
(now called quote_path()) takes the prefix as an additional argument.
While at it, the static buffers were replaced by strbufs.
