After 9c00de5 (ls-remote: fall-back to default remotes when no remote
specified), when no repository is specified, ls-remote may use
the URL/remote in the config "branch.<name>.remote" or the remote
"origin"; it may not be immediately obvious to the user which was used.
In such cases, print a simple "From <URL>" line to indicate which
repository was used. This message is similar to git-fetch's, and is
printed to stderr to avoid breaking existing scripts that depend on
ls-remote's output behaviour.
It can also be disabled with -q/--quiet.
Modify tests related to falling back on default remotes to check for
this as well, and add a test to check for suppression of the message.

Instead of breaking execution when no remote (as specified in the
variable dest) is specified when git-ls-remote is invoked, continue on
and let remote_get() handle it.
This way, we are able to use the default remotes (eg. "origin",
branch.<name>.remote), as git-fetch, git-push, and other users of
remote_get(), do.
If no suitable remote is found, exit with a message describing the
issue, instead of just the usage text, as we do previously.
Add several tests to check that git-ls-remote handles the
no-remote-specified situation.
Also add a test that "git ls-remote <pattern>" does not work; we are
unable to guess the remote in that situation, as are git-fetch and
git-push.
In that test, we are testing for messages coming from two separate
processes, but we should be OK, because the second message is triggered
by closing the fd which must happen after the first message is printed.

This fixes the remainder of the issues where the test script itself is at
fault for failing when the git checkout path contains whitespace or other
shell metacharacters.
The majority of git svn tests used the idiom
test_expect_success "title" "test script using $svnrepo"
These were changed to have the test script in single-quotes:
test_expect_success "title" 'test script using "$svnrepo"'
which unfortunately makes the patch appear larger than it really is.
One consequence of this change is that in the verbose test output the
value of $svnrepo (and in some cases other variables, too) is no
longer expanded, i.e. previously we saw
* expecting success:
test script using /path/to/git/t/trash/svnrepo
but now it is:
* expecting success:
test script using "$svnrepo"

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

Prior to being made a builtin git-ls-remote understood that when
it was given a remote name we wanted it to resolve that to the
pre-configured URL and connect to that location. That changed when
it was converted to a builtin and many of my automation tools broke.
