Exit with an error if a prefix provided to `git read-tree --prefix` begins
with '/'. In most cases, prefixes like this result in an "invalid path"
error; however, the repository root would be interpreted as valid when
specified as '--prefix=/'. This is due to leniency around trailing directory
separators on prefixes (e.g., allowing both '--prefix=my-dir' and
'--prefix=my-dir/') - the '/' in the prefix is actually the *trailing*
slash, although it could be misinterpreted as a *leading* slash.
To remove the confusing repo root-as-'/' case and make it clear that
prefixes should not begin with '/', exit with an error if the first
character of the provided prefix is '/'.

Mark some tests that match "*read-tree*" as passing when git is
compiled with SANITIZE=leak. They'll now be listed as running under
the "GIT_TEST_PASSING_SANITIZE_LEAK=true" test mode (the "linux-leaks"
CI target). We still have around half the tests that match
"*read-tree*" failing, but let's whitelist those that don't.

The Git CodingGuidelines prefer the $(...) construct for command
substitution instead of using the backquotes `...`.
The backquoted form is the traditional method for command
substitution, and is supported by POSIX. However, all but the
simplest uses become complicated quickly. In particular, embedded
command substitutions and/or the use of double quotes require
careful escaping with the backslash character.
The patch was generated by:
for _f in $(find . -name "*.sh")
do
sed -i 's@`\(.*\)`@$(\1)@g' ${_f}
done
and then carefully proof-read.

We still have too few of them, but we have to start from somewhere.
The general rule is to make tests easy to debug when run with -v (notice
use of seemingly useless echo everywhere in the new tests).
