Teach Git to inspect a commit graph file to supply the contents of a
struct commit when calling parse_commit_gently(). This implementation
satisfies all post-conditions on the struct commit, including loading
parents, the root tree, and the commit date.
If core.commitGraph is false, then do not check graph files.
In test script t5318-commit-graph.sh, add output-matching conditions on
read-only graph operations.
By loading commits from the graph instead of parsing commit buffers, we
save a lot of time on long commit walks. Here are some performance
results for a copy of the Linux repository where 'master' has 678,653
reachable commits and is behind 'origin/master' by 59,929 commits.

From the output of ls-files, we remove all but the leftmost path
component and then we eliminate duplicates. We do this in a while loop,
which is a performance bottleneck when the number of iterations is large
(e.g. for 60000 files in linux.git).
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m11.876s
user 0m4.685s
sys 0m6.808s
Replacing the loop with the cut command improves performance
significantly:
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m1.372s
user 0m0.263s
sys 0m0.167s
The measurements were done with Msys2 bash, which is used by Git for
Windows.
When filtering the ls-files output we take care not to touch absolute
paths. This is redundant, because ls-files will never output absolute
paths. Remove the unnecessary operations.

Internally, we represent `git config`'s type specifiers as a bitset
using OPT_BIT. 'bool' is 1<<0, 'int' is 1<<1, and so on. This technique
allows for the representation of multiple type specifiers in the `int
types` field, but this multi-representation is left unused.
In fact, `git config` will not accept multiple type specifiers at a
time, as indicated by:
$ git config --int --bool some.section
error: only one type at a time.
This patch uses `OPT_SET_INT` to prefer the _last_ mentioned type
specifier, so that the above command would instead be valid, and a
synonym of:
$ git config --bool some.section
This change is motivated by two urges: (1) it does not make sense to
represent a singular type specifier internally as a bitset, only to
complain when there are multiple bits in the set. `OPT_SET_INT` is more
well-suited to this task than `OPT_BIT` is. (2) a future patch will
introduce `--type=<type>`, and we would like not to complain in the
following situation:
$ git config --int --type=int

It can happen quite easily that the last setting in a config section is
removed, and to avoid confusion when there are comments in the config
about that section, we keep a lone section header, i.e. an empty
section.
Now that we use the `event_fn` callback, it is easy to add support for
re-using empty sections, so let's do that.
Note: t5512-ls-remote requires that this change is applied *after* the
patch "git config --unset: remove empty sections (in the common case)":
without that patch, there would be empty `transfer` and `uploadpack`
sections ready for reuse, but in the *wrong* order (and sconsequently,
t5512's "overrides work between mixed transfer/upload-pack hideRefs"
would fail).

The original reasoning for not removing section headers upon removal of
the last entry went like this: the user could have added comments about
the section, or about the entries therein, and if there were other
comments there, we would not know whether we should remove them.
In particular, a concocted example was presented that looked like this
(and was added to t1300):
# some generic comment on the configuration file itself
# a comment specific to this "section" section.
[section]
# some intervening lines
# that should also be dropped
key = value
# please be careful when you update the above variable
The ideal thing for `git config --unset section.key` in this case would
be to leave only the first line behind, because all the other comments
are now obsolete.
However, this is unfeasible, short of adding a complete Natural Language
Processing module to Git, which seems not only a lot of work, but a
totally unreasonable feature (for little benefit to most users).
Now, the real kicker about this problem is: most users do not edit their
config files at all! In their use case, the config looks like this
instead:
[section]
key = value
... and it is totally obvious what should happen if the entry is
removed: the entire section should vanish.
Let's generalize this observation to this conservative strategy: if we
are removing the last entry from a section, and there are no comments
inside that section nor surrounding it, then remove the entire section.
Otherwise behave as before: leave the now-empty section (including those
comments, even ones about the now-deleted entry).
We have to be extra careful to handle the case where more than one entry
is removed: any subset of them might be the last entries of their
respective sections (and if there are no comments in or around that
section, the section should be removed, too).

In the recent commit with the title "config: introduce an optional event
stream while parsing", we introduced an optional callback to keep track
of the config parser's events "comment", "white-space", "section header"
and "entry".
One motivation for this feature was to make use of it in the code that
edits the config. And this commit makes it so.
Note: this patch changes the meaning of the `seen` array that records
whether we saw the config entry that is to be edited: previously, it
contained the end offset of the found entry. Now, we introduce a new
array `parsed` that keeps a record of *all* config parser events (with
begin/end offsets), and the items in the `seen` array now point into the
`parsed` array.
There are two reasons why we do it this way:
1. To keep the implementation simple, the config parser's event stream
reports the event only after the config callback was called, so we
would not receive the begin offset otherwise.
2. In the following patches, we will re-use the `parsed` array to fix two
long-standing bugs related to empty sections.
Note that this also makes the code more robust with respect to finding the
begin offset of the part(s) of the config file to be edited, as we no
longer back-track to find the beginning of the line.

While a neat theoretical construct, state machines are hard to read. In
this instance, it does not even make a whole lot of sense because we are
more interested in flags, anyway: has the section been seen? Has the key
been seen? Does the current section match the key we are looking for?
Besides, the state `SECTION_SEEN` was named in a misleading way: it did
not indicate that we saw the section matching the key we are looking
for, but it instead indicated that we are *currently* in that section.
Let's just replace the state machine logic by clear and obvious flags.
This will also make it easier to review the upcoming patches to use the
newly-introduced `event_fn` callback of the config parser.

The `seen` field is the actual length of the `offset` array, and the
`offset_alloc` field records what was allocated (to avoid resizing
wherever `seen` has to be incremented).
Elsewhere, we use the convention `name` for the array, where `name` is
descriptive enough to guess its purpose, `name_nr` for the actual length
and `name_alloc` to record the maximum length without needing to resize.
Let's make the names of the fields in question consistent with that
convention.
This will also help with the next steps where we will let the
git_config_set() machinery use the config event stream that we just
introduced.
