Bugfix patches were backported from the 'master' front to plug heap
corruption holes, to catch integer overflow in the computation of
pathname lengths, and to get rid of the name_path API. Both of
these would have resulted in writing over an under-allocated buffer
when formulating pathnames while tree traversal.

Recent versions of GNU grep is pickier than before to decide if a
file is "binary" and refuse to give line-oriented hits when we
expect it to, unless explicitly told with "-a" option. As our
scripted Porcelains use sane_grep wrapper for line-oriented data,
even when the line may contain non-ASCII payload we took from
end-user data, use "grep -a" to implement sane_grep wrapper when
using an implementation of "grep" that takes the "-a" option.

Ensure we canonicalize paths and URLs with appropriate functions
for each type from now on as the path/URL-agnostic

According to the documentation, full URLs can be specified in the `-T`
argument to `git svn init`. However, the canonicalization of such
arguments squashes together consecutive "/"s, which unsurprisingly
breaks http://, svn://, etc URLs. Add a failing test case to provide
evidence of that.
On systems where Subversion provides svn_path_canonicalize but not
svn_dirent_canonicalize (Subversion 1.6 and earlier?), this test passes,
as svn_path_canonicalize doesn't mangle the consecutive "/"s.

When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.
So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.
This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

In the previous commit, we left name_path as a thin wrapper
around a strbuf. This patch drops it entirely. As a result,
every show_object_fn callback needs to be adjusted. However,
none of their code needs to be changed at all, because the
only use was to pass it to path_name(), which now handles
the bare strbuf.

The "struct name_path" data is examined in only two places:
we generate it in process_tree(), and we convert it to a
single string in path_name(). Everyone else just passes it
through to those functions.
We can further note that process_tree() already keeps a
single strbuf with the leading tree path, for use with
tree_entry_interesting().
Instead of building a separate name_path linked list, let's
just use the one we already build in "base". This reduces
the amount of code (especially tricky code in path_name()
which did not check for integer overflows caused by deep
or large pathnames).
It is also more efficient in some instances. Any time we
were using tree_entry_interesting, we were building up the
strbuf anyway, so this is an immediate and obvious win
there. In cases where we were not, we trade off storing
"pathname/" in a strbuf on the heap for each level of the
path, instead of two pointers and an int on the stack (with
one pointer into the tree object). On a 64-bit system, the
latter is 20 bytes; so if path components are less than that
on average, this has lower peak memory usage. In practice
it probably doesn't matter either way; we are already
holding in memory all of the tree objects leading up to each
pathname, and for normal-depth pathnames, we are only
talking about hundreds of bytes.
This patch leaves "struct name_path" as a thin wrapper
around the strbuf, to avoid disrupting callbacks. We should
fix them, but leaving it out makes this diff easier to view.

When "git rev-list" shows an object with its associated path
name, it does so by walking the name_path linked list and
printing each component (stopping at any embedded NULs or
newlines).
We'd like to eventually get rid of name_path entirely in
favor of a single buffer, and dropping this custom printing
code is part of that. As a first step, let's use path_name()
to format the list into a single buffer, and print that.
This is strictly less efficient than the original, but it's
a temporary step in the refactoring; our end game will be to
get the fully formatted name in the first place.

Performing computations on size_t variables that we feed to
xmalloc and friends can be dangerous, as an integer overflow
can cause us to allocate a much smaller chunk than we
realized.
We already have unsigned_add_overflows(), but let's add
unsigned_mult_overflows() to that. Furthermore, rather than
have each site manually check and die on overflow, we can
provide some helpers that will:
- promote the arguments to size_t, so that we know we are
doing our computation in the same size of integer that
will ultimately be fed to xmalloc
- check and die on overflow
- return the result so that computations can be done in
the parameter list of xmalloc.
These functions are a lot uglier to use than normal
arithmetic operators (you have to do "st_add(foo, bar)"
instead of "foo + bar"). To at least limit the damage, we
also provide multi-valued versions. So rather than:
st_add(st_add(a, b), st_add(c, d));
you can write:
st_add4(a, b, c, d);
This isn't nearly as elegant as a varargs function, but it's
a lot harder to get it wrong. You don't have to remember to
add a sentinel value at the end, and the compiler will
complain if you get the number of arguments wrong. This
patch adds only the numbered variants required to convert
the current code base; we can easily add more later if
needed.

The graph traversal code here passes along a name_path to
build up the pathname at which we find each blob. But we
never actually do anything with the resulting names, making
it a waste of code and memory.
This usage came in aa1dbc9 (Update http-push functionality,
2006-03-07), and originally the result was passed to
"add_object" (which stored it, but didn't really use it,
either). But we stopped using that function in 1f1e895 (Add
"named object array" concept, 2006-06-19) in favor of
storing just the objects themselves.
Moreover, the generation of the name in process_tree() is
buggy. It sticks "name" onto the end of the name_path linked
list, and then passes it down again as it recurses (instead
of "entry.path"). So it's a good thing this was unused, as
the resulting path for "a/b/c/d" would end up as "a/a/a/a".

A combine_diff_path struct has two "flex" members allocated
alongside the struct: a string to hold the pathname, and an
array of parent pointers. We use an "int" to compute this,
meaning we may easily overflow it if the pathname is
extremely long.
We can fix this by using size_t, and checking for overflow
with the st_add helper.

While I was checking all the call sites of sane_grep and sane_egrep,
I noticed this one is somewhat strangely written. The lines in the
file sane_grep works on all begin with 40-hex object name, so there
is no real risk of confusing "test $(...) = ''" by finding something
that begins with a dash, but using the status from sane_grep makes
it a lot clearer what is going on.
