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.

The implementation of digit-separating single-quotes introduced a
note-worthy regression: the change of a character literal with a
digit would splice the digit and the closing single-quote. For
example, the change from 'a' to '2' is now tokenized as
'[-a'-]{+2'+} instead of '[-a-]{+2+}'.
The options to fix the regression are:
- Tighten the regular expression such that the single-quote can only
occur between digits (that would match the official syntax).
- Remove support for digit separators.
I chose to remove support, because
- I have not seen a lot of code make use of digit separators.
- If code does use digit separators, then the numbers are typically
long. If a change in one of the segments occurs, it is actually
better visible if only that segment is highlighted as the word
that changed instead of the whole long number.
This choice does introduce another minor regression, though, which
is highlighted in the test case: when a change occurs in the second
or later segment of a hexadecimal number where the segment begins
with a digit, but also has letters, the segment is mistaken as
consisting of a number and an identifier. I can live with that.

Generally, word regex can be written such that they match tokens
liberally and need not model the actual syntax because it can be assumed
that the regex will only be applied to syntactically correct text.
The regex for cpp (C/C++) is too liberal, though. It regards these
sequences as single tokens:
1+2
1.5-e+2+f
and the following amalgams as one token:
.l as in str.length
.f as in str.find
.e as in str.erase
Tighten the regex in the following way:
- Accept + and - only in one position in the exponent. + and - are no
longer regarded as the sign of a number and are treated by the
catcher-all that is not visible in the driver's regex.
- Accept a leading decimal point only when it is followed by a digit.
For readability, factor hex- and binary numbers into an own term.
As a drive-by, this fixes that floating point numbers such as 12E5
(with upper-case E) were split into two tokens.

Add a diff driver for Scheme-like languages which recognizes top level
and local `define` forms, whether it is a function definition, binding,
syntax definition or a user-defined `define-xyzzy` form.
Also supports R6RS `library` forms, `module` forms along with class and
struct declarations used in Racket (PLT Scheme).
Alternate "def" syntax such as those in Gerbil Scheme are also
supported, like defstruct, defsyntax and so on.
The rationale for picking `define` forms for the hunk headers is because
it is usually the only significant form for defining the structure of
the program, and it is a common pattern for schemers to have local
function definitions to hide their visibility, so it is not only the top
level `define`'s that are of interest. Schemers also extend the language
with macros to provide their own define forms (for example, something
like a `define-test-suite`) which is also captured in the hunk header.
Since it is common practice to extend syntax with variants of a form
like `module+`, `class*` etc, those have been supported as well.
The word regex is a best-effort attempt to conform to R7RS[1] valid
identifiers, symbols and numbers.

The third part of the Fortran xfuncname regex wants to match the
beginning of a subroutine or function, so it allows for all characters
except `'`, `"` or whitespace before the keyword 'function' or
'subroutine'. This is meant to match the 'recursive', 'elemental' or
'pure' keywords, as well as function return types, and to prevent
matches inside strings.
However, the negated set does not contain the `!` comment character,
so a line with an end-of-line comment containing the keyword 'function' or
'subroutine' followed by another word is mistakenly chosen as a hunk header.
Improve the regex by adding `!` to the negated set.

The pattern is based on the CommonMark specification 0.29, section 4.2

seeing them in a hunk header is unlikely to be useful.
Only ATX headings are supported, as detecting setext headings would
require printing the line before a pattern matches, or matching a
multiline pattern. The word-diff pattern is the same as the pattern for

We return the length to a subset of a string using an "int *"
out-parameter. This is fine most of the time, as we'd expect config keys
to be relatively short, but it could behave oddly if we had a gigantic
config key. A more appropriate type is size_t.
Let's switch over, which lets our callers use size_t as appropriate
(they are bound by our type because they must pass the out-parameter as
a pointer). This is mostly just a cleanup to make it clear this code
handles long strings correctly. In practice, our config parser already
chokes on long key names (because of a similar int/size_t mixup!).
When doing an int/size_t conversion, we have to be careful that nobody
was trying to assign a negative value to the variable. I manually
confirmed that for each case here. They tend to just feed the result to
xmemdupz() or similar; in a few cases I adjusted the parameter types for
helper functions to make sure the size_t is preserved.

While reviewing some dts diffs recently I noticed that the hunk header
logic was failing to find the containing node. This is because the regex
doesn't consider properties that may span multiple lines, i.e.
property = <something>,
<something_else>;
and it got hung up on comments inside nodes that look like the root node
because they start with '/*'. Add tests for these cases and update the
regex to find them. Maybe detecting the root node is too complicated but
forcing it to be a backslash with any amount of whitespace up to an open
bracket seemed OK. I tried to detect that a comment is in-between the
two parts but I wasn't happy so I just dropped it.
