The previous commit switched "-l" to meaning "--list", but a
few vestiges of its prior meaning as "--create-reflog"
remained:
- the synopsis mentioned "-l" when creating a new branch;
we can drop this entirely, as it has been the default
for years
- the --list command mentions the unfortunate "-l"
confusion, but we've now fixed that

The other "mode" options of git-branch have short-option
aliases that are easy to type (e.g., "-d" and "-m"). Let's
give "--list" the same treatment.
This also makes it consistent with the similar "git tag -l"
option.
We didn't do this originally because "--create-reflog" was
squatting on the "-l" option. Now that we've deprecated that
use for long enough, we can make the switch.

The "-l" option is short for "--create-reflog". This has
caused much confusion over the years. Most people expect it
to work as "--list", because that would match the other
"mode" options like -d/--delete and -m/--move, as well as
the similar -l/--list option of git-tag.
Adding to the confusion, using "-l" _appears_ to work as
"--list" in some cases:
$ git branch -l
* master
because the branch command defaults to listing (so even
trying to specify --list in the command above is redundant).
But that may bite the user later when they add a pattern,
like:
$ git branch -l foo
which does not return an empty list, but in fact creates a
new branch (with a reflog, naturally) called "foo".
It's also probably quite uncommon for people to actually use
"-l" to create a reflog. Since 0bee591869 (Enable reflogs by
default in any repository with a working directory.,
2006-12-14), this is the default in non-bare repositories.
So it's rather unfortunate that the feature squats on the
short-and-sweet "-l" (which was only added in 3a4b3f269c
(Create/delete branch ref logs., 2006-05-19), meaning there
were only 7 months where it was actually useful).
Let's deprecate "-l" in hopes of eventually re-purposing it
to "--list".
Note that we issue the warning only when we're not in list
mode. This means that people for whom it works as a happy
accident, namely:
$ git branch -l
master
won't see the warning at all. And when we eventually switch
to it meaning "--list", that will just continue to work.
We do the issue the warning for these important cases:
- when we are actually creating a branch, in case the user
really did mean it as "--create-reflog"
- when we are in some _other_ mode, like deletion. There
the "-l" is a noop for now, but it will eventually
conflict with any other mode request, and the user
should be told that this is changing.

In preparation for deprecating "-l", let's make sure we're
using the recommended option ourselves.
This patch just mechanically converts "branch -l" to "branch
--create-reflog". Note that with the exception of the
actual "--create-reflog" test, we could actually remove "-l"
entirely from most of these callers. That's because these
days core.logallrefupdates defaults to true in a non-bare
repository.
I've left them in place, though, since they serve to
document the expectation of the test, even if they are
technically noops.

This test checks that the "-l" option creates a reflog. But
in fact we'd create one even without it, since the default
in a non-bare repository is to do so. Let's unset the config
so we can be sure our "-l" option is kicking in.
Note that we can't do this with test_config, since that
would leave the variable unset after our test finishes,
confusing downstream tests (the helper is not not smart
enough to restore the previous value, and just always runs
test_unconfig).

The return value of ewah_read_mmap() is now an ssize_t,
since we could (in theory) process up to 32GB of data. This
would never happen in practice, but a corrupt or malicious
.bitmap or index file could convince us to do so.
Let's make sure that we don't stuff the value into an int,
which would cause us to incorrectly move our pointer
forward. We'd always move too little, since negative values
are used for reporting errors. So the worst case is just
that we end up reporting a corrupt file, not an
out-of-bounds read.

The on-disk ewah format tells us how big the ewah data is,
and we blindly read that much from the buffer without
considering whether the mmap'd data is long enough, which
can lead to out-of-bound reads.
Let's make sure we have data available before reading it,
both for the ewah header/footer as well as for the bit data
itself. In particular:
- keep our ptr/len pair in sync as we move through the
buffer, and check it before each read
- check the size for integer overflow (this should be
impossible on 64-bit, as the size is given as a 32-bit
count of 8-byte words, but is possible on a 32-bit
system)
- return the number of bytes read as an ssize_t instead of
an int, again to prevent integer overflow
- compute the return value using a pointer difference;
this should yield the same result as the existing code,
but makes it more obvious that we got our computations
right
The included test is far from comprehensive, as it just
picks a static point at which to truncate the generated
bitmap. But in practice this will hit in the middle of an
ewah and make sure we're at least exercising this code.

Support for the --set-upstream option was removed in 52668846ea
(builtin/branch: stop supporting the "--set-upstream" option,
2017-08-17). The change did not completely remove the command
due to an issue noted in the commit's log message.
So, a test was added to ensure that a command which uses the
'--set-upstream' option fails instead of silently acting as an alias
for the '--set-upstream-to' option due to option parsing features.
To avoid confusion, clarify that the option is disabled intentionally
in the corresponding test description.
The test is expected to be around as long as we intentionally fail
on seeing the '--set-upstream' option which in turn we expect to
do for a period of time after which we can be sure that existing
users of '--set-upstream' are aware that the option is no
longer supported.
