The byte-swapping code automatically decides, based on the
platform, whether it is sensible to cast and do a potentially
unaligned ntohl(), or to pick individual bytes out of an
array.
It can be handy to override this decision, though, when
turning on compiler flags that will complain about unaligned
loads (such as -fsanitize=undefined). This patch adds a
macro check to make this possible.
There's no nice Makefile knob here; this is for prodding at
Git's internals, and anybody using it can set
"-DNO_UNALIGNED_LOADS" in the same place they are setting up
"-fsanitize".

We sometimes use 32-bit unsigned integers as bit-fields.
It's fine to access the MSB, because it's unsigned. However,
doing so as "1 << 31" is wrong, because the constant "1" is
a signed int, and we shift into the sign bit, causing
undefined behavior.
We can fix this by using "1U" as the constant.

When git executes a sub-command, we print a warning if the
command dies due to a signal, but make an exception for
"uninteresting" cases like SIGINT and SIGQUIT (since the
user presumably just hit ^C).
We should make a similar exception for SIGPIPE, because it's
an expected and uninteresting return in most cases; it
generally means the user quit the pager before git had
finished generating all output. This used to be very hard
to trigger in practice, because:
1. We only complain if we see a real SIGPIPE death, not
the shell-induced 141 exit code. This means that
anything we run via the shell does not trigger the
warning, which includes most non-trivial aliases.
2. The common case for SIGPIPE is the user quitting the
pager before git has finished generating all output.
But if the user triggers a pager with "-p", we redirect
the git wrapper's stderr to that pager, too. Since the
pager is dead, it means that the message goes nowhere.
3. You can see it if you run your own pager, like
"git foo | head". But that only happens if "foo" is a
non-builtin (so it doesn't work with "log", for
example).
However, it may become more common after 86d26f2, which
teaches alias to re-exec builtins rather than running them
in the same process. This case doesn't trigger (1), as we
don't need a shell to run a git command. It doesn't trigger
(2), because the pager is not started by the original git,
but by the inner re-exec of git. And it doesn't trigger (3),
because builtins are treated more like non-builtins in this
case.
Given how flaky this message already is (e.g., you cannot
even know whether you will see it, as git optimizes out some
shell invocations behind the scenes based on the contents of
the command!), and that it is unlikely to ever provide
useful information, let's suppress it for all cases of
SIGPIPE.

We generally hold a lock on the matching ref while writing
to its reflog; this prevents two simultaneous writers from
clobbering each other's reflog lines (it does not even have
to be two symref updates; because we don't hold the lock, we
could race with somebody writing to the pointed-to ref via
HEAD, for example).
We can fix this by writing the reflog before we commit the
lockfile. This runs the risk of writing the reflog but
failing the final rename(), but at least we now err on the
same side as the rest of the ref code.

The create_symref() function predates the existence of
"struct lock_file", let alone the more recent "struct
ref_lock". Instead, it just does its own manual dot-locking.
Besides being more code, this has a few downsides:
- if git is interrupted while holding the lock, we don't
clean up the lockfile
- we don't do the usual directory/filename conflict check.
So you can sometimes create a symref "refs/heads/foo/bar",
even if "refs/heads/foo" exists (namely, if the refs are
packed and we do not hit the d/f conflict in the
filesystem).
This patch refactors create_symref() to use the "struct
ref_lock" interface, which handles both of these things.
There are a few bonus cleanups that come along with it:
- we leaked ref_path in some error cases
- the symref contents were stored in a fixed-size buffer,
putting an artificial (albeit large) limitation on the
length of the refname. We now write through fprintf, and
handle refnames of any size.
- we called adjust_shared_perm only after the file was
renamed into place, creating a potential race with
readers in a shared repository. The lockfile code now
handles this when creating the lockfile, making it
atomic.
- the legacy prefer_symlink_refs path did not do any
locking at all. Admittedly, it is not atomic from a
reader's perspective (as it unlinks and re-creates the
symlink to overwrite), but at least it cannot conflict
with other writers now.
- the result of this patch is hopefully more readable. It
eliminates three goto labels. Two were for error checking
that is now simplified, and the third was to reach shared
code that has been pulled into its own function.

Once upon a time, create_symref() was used only to point
HEAD at a branch name, and the variable names reflect that
(e.g., calling the path git_HEAD). However, it is much more
generic these days (and has been for some time). Let's
update the variable names to make it easier to follow:
- `ref_target` is now just `refname`. This is closer to
the `ref` that is already in `cache.h`, but with the
extra twist that "name" makes it clear this is the name
and not a ref struct. Dropping "target" hopefully makes
it clear that we are talking about the symref itself,
not what it points to.
- `git_HEAD` is now `ref_path`; the on-disk path
corresponding to `ref`.
- `refs_heads_master` is now just `target`; i.e., what the
symref points at. This term also matches what is in
the symlink(2) manpage (at least on Linux).
- the buffer to hold the symref file's contents was simply
called `ref`. It's now `buf` (admittedly also generic,
but at least not actively introducing confusion with the
other variable holding the refname).

The section could be changed to use and explain a detached HEAD,
except that would increase the learning curve early in the manual.
