In a helper function in the 't1600-index.sh' test script the stderr
of a 'git add' command is redirected to its stdout, but its stdout is
not redirected anywhere. So apparently this redirection is
unnecessary, remove it.

sparse-index: silently return when cache tree fails

t7519: rewrite sparse index test
When changing the scope of a sparse-checkout using cone mode, we might
have some tracked directories go out of scope. The current logic removes
the tracked files from within those directories, but leaves the ignored
files within those directories. This is a bit unexpected to users who
have given input to Git saying they don't need those directories
anymore.
This is something that is new to the cone mode pattern type: the user
has explicitly said "I want these directories and _not_ those
directories." The typical sparse-checkout patterns more generally apply
to "I want files with with these patterns" so it is natural to leave
ignored files as they are. This focus on directories in cone mode
provides us an opportunity to change the behavior.
Leaving these ignored files in the sparse directories makes it
impossible to gain performance benefits in the sparse index. When we
track into these directories, we need to know if the files are ignored
or not, which might depend on the _tracked_ .gitignore file(s) within
the sparse directory. This depends on the indexed version of the file,
so the sparse directory must be expanded.
We must take special care to look for untracked, non-ignored files in
these directories before deleting them. We do not want to delete any
meaningful work that the users were doing in those directories and
perhaps forgot to add and commit before switching sparse-checkout
definitions. Since those untracked files might be code files that
generated ignored build output, also do not delete any ignored files
from these directories in that case. The users can recover their state
by resetting their sparse-checkout definition to include that directory
and continue. Alternatively, they can see the warning that is presented
and delete the directory themselves to regain the performance they
expect.
By deleting the sparse directories when changing scope (or running 'git
sparse-checkout reapply') we regain these performance benefits as if the
repository was in a clean state.
Since these ignored files are frequently build output or helper files
from IDEs, the users should not need the files now that the tracked
files are removed. If the tracked files reappear, then they will have
newer timestamps than the build artifacts, so the artifacts will need to
be regenerated anyway.
Use the sparse-index as a data structure in order to find the sparse
directories that can be safely deleted. Re-expand the index to a full
one if it was full before.

The convert_to_sparse() method checks for the GIT_TEST_SPARSE_INDEX
environment variable or the "index.sparse" config setting before
converting the index to a sparse one. This is for ease of use since all
current consumers are preparing to compress the index before writing it
to disk. If these settings are not enabled, then convert_to_sparse()
silently returns without doing anything.
We will add a consumer in the next change that wants to use the sparse
index as an in-memory data structure, regardless of whether the on-disk
format should be sparse.
To that end, create the SPARSE_INDEX_MEMORY_ONLY flag that will skip
these config checks when enabled. All current consumers are modified to
pass '0' in the new 'flags' parameter.

As we integrate the sparse index into more builtins, we occasionally
need to check the sparse-checkout patterns to see if a path is within
the sparse-checkout cone. Create some helper methods that help
initialize the patterns and check for pattern matching to make this
easier.
The existing callers of commands like get_sparse_checkout_patterns() use
a custom 'struct pattern_list' that is not necessarily the one in the
'struct index_state', so there are not many previous uses that could
adopt these helpers. There are just two in builtin/add.c and
sparse-index.c that can use path_in_sparse_checkout().
We add a path_in_cone_mode_sparse_checkout() as well that will only
return false if the path is outside of the sparse-checkout definition
_and_ the sparse-checkout patterns are in cone mode.

When updating the cache tree in convert_to_sparse(), the
WRITE_TREE_MISSING_OK flag indicates that trees might be computed that
do not already exist within the object database. This happens in cases
such as 'git add' creating new trees that it wants to store in
anticipation of a following 'git commit'. If this flag is not specified,
then it might trigger a promisor fetch or a failure due to the object
not existing locally.
Use WRITE_TREE_MISSING_OK during convert_to_sparse() to avoid these
possible reasons for the cache_tree_update() to fail.

If cache_tree_update() returns a non-zero value, then it could not
create the cache tree. This is likely due to a path having a merge
conflict. Since we are already returning early, let's return silently to
avoid making it seem like we failed to write the index at all.
If we remove our dependence on the cache tree within
convert_to_sparse(), then we could still recover from this scenario and
have a sparse index.

The iterated search in find_cache_entry() was recently modified to
include a loop that searches backwards for a sparse directory entry that
matches the given traverse_info and name_entry. However, the string
comparison failed to actually concatenate those two strings, so this
failed to find a sparse directory when it was not a top-level directory.
This caused some errors in rare cases where a 'git checkout' spanned a
diff that modified files within the sparse directory entry, but we could
not correctly find the entry.

While the sparse-index is only enabled when core.sparseCheckoutCone is
also enabled, it is possible for the user to modify the sparse-checkout
file manually in a way that does not match cone-mode patterns. In this
case, we should refuse to convert an index into a sparse index, since
the sparse_checkout_patterns will not be initialized with recursive and
parent path hashsets.
Also silently return if there are no cache entries, which is a simple
case: there are no paths to make sparse!

The sparse index is tested with the FS Monitor hook and extension since
f8fe49e (fsmonitor: integrate with sparse index, 2021-07-14). This test
was very fragile because it shared an index across sparse and non-sparse
behavior. Since that expansion and contraction could cause the index to
lose its FS Monitor bitmap and token, behavior is fragile to changes in
'git sparse-checkout set'.
Rewrite the test to use two clones of the original repo: full and
sparse. This allows us to also keep the test files (actual, expect,
trace2.txt) out of the repos we are testing with 'git status'.

The flexible array member "k" of struct cb_node is used to store the key
of the crit-bit tree node. It offers no alignment guarantees -- in fact
the current struct layout puts it one byte after a 4-byte aligned
address, i.e. guaranteed to be misaligned.
oidtree uses a struct object_id as cb_node key. Since cf0983213c (hash:
add an algo member to struct object_id, 2021-04-26) it requires 4-byte
alignment. The mismatch is reported by UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer at
runtime like this:
hash.h:277:2: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x00015000802d for type 'struct object_id', which requires 4 byte alignment
0x00015000802d: note: pointer points here
00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

SUMMARY: UndefinedBehaviorSanitizer: undefined-behavior hash.h:277:2 in
We can fix that by:
1. eliminating the alignment requirement of struct object_id,
2. providing the alignment in struct cb_node, or
3. avoiding the issue by only using memcpy to access "k".
Currently we only store one of two values in "algo" in struct object_id.
We could use a uint8_t for that instead and widen it only once we add
support for our twohundredth algorithm or so. That would not only avoid
alignment issues, but also reduce the memory requirements for each
instance of struct object_id by ca. 9%.
Supporting keys with alignment requirements might be useful to spread
the use of crit-bit trees. It can be achieved by using a wider type for
"k" (e.g. uintmax_t), using different types for the members "byte" and
"otherbits" (e.g. uint16_t or uint32_t for each), or by avoiding the use
of flexible arrays like khash.h does.
This patch implements the third option, though, because it has the least
potential for causing side-effects and we're close to the next release.
If one of the other options is implemented later as well to get their
additional benefits we can get rid of the extra copies introduced here.
