c18eecbe5c reftable: use a pointer for pq_entry param
The speed of the merged_iter_pqueue_add() can be improved by using a
pointer to the pq_entry struct, which is 96 bytes. Since the pq_entry
param is worked directly on the stack and does not currently have a
pointer to it, the merged_iter_pqueue_add() function is slightly
slower.

References to pq_entry in reftable have typically included pointers,
such as both of the params for pq_less().

Since we are working with pointers in the pq_entry param, as keenly
pointed out, the pq_entry param has also been made into a const since
the contents of the pq_entry param are copied and not manipulated.

255a6f91ae t1800: correct test to handle Cygwin
On Cygwin, when failing to spawn a process using start_command, Git
outputs the same error as on Linux systems, rather than using the
GIT_WINDOWS_NATIVE-specific error output.  The WINDOWS test prerequisite
is set in both Cygwin and native Windows environments, which means it's
not appropriate to use to anticipate the error output from
start_command.  Instead, use the MINGW test prerequisite, which is only
set for Git in native Windows environments, and not for Cygwin.

f6f0ee247f add -p: fix worktree patch mode prompts
cee6cb7300 (built-in add -p: implement the "worktree" patch modes,
2019-12-21) added the worktree patch modes to the built-in add -p.
Its commit message claims to be a port of 2f0896ec3a (restore:
support --patch, 2019-04-25), which did the same for the script
git-add--interactive.perl.

The script mentioned only the worktree in its prompt messages in
worktree mode, while the built-in mentions the worktree and also the
index, even though the command doesn't actually affect the index.

2c8bd8471a (checkout -p: handle new files correctly, 2020-05-27)
added new prompt messages for addition that also mention the index in
worktree mode in the built-in, but not in the script.

Correct these prompts to state that only the worktree will be affected.

a0feb8611d Merge a handful of topics from the 'master' front
As the 'master' front will soon tag a preview and then release
candidates for 2.38, it is unknown if we are going to issue another
maintenance release on the 2.37.x track, but as we have accumulated
enough material there, let's prepare a draft for it.

Even if we end up not tagging 2.37.4, it would help motivated distro
packagers to maintain their slightly older and "more stable" versions.

7c04aa7390 chainlint: colorize problem annotations and test delimiters
When `chainlint.pl` detects problems in a test definition, it emits the
test definition with "?!FOO?!" annotations highlighting the problems it
discovered. For instance, given this problematic test:

    test_expect_success 'discombobulate frobnitz' '
        git frob babble &&
        (echo balderdash; echo gnabgib) >expect &&
        for i in three two one
        do
            git nitfol $i
        done >actual
        test_cmp expect actual
    '

chainlint.pl will output:

    # chainlint: t1234-confusing.sh
    # chainlint: discombobulate frobnitz
    git frob babble &&
    (echo balderdash ; ?!AMP?! echo gnabgib) >expect &&
    for i in three two one
    do
    git nitfol $i ?!LOOP?!
    done >actual ?!AMP?!
    test_cmp expect actual

in which it may be difficult to spot the "?!FOO?!" annotations. The
problem is compounded when multiple tests, possibly in multiple
scripts, fail "linting", in which case it may be difficult to spot the
"# chainlint:" lines which delimit one problematic test from another.

To ameliorate this potential problem, colorize the "?!FOO?!" annotations
in order to quickly draw the test author's attention to the problem
spots, and colorize the "# chainlint:" lines to help the author identify
the name of each script and each problematic test.

Colorization is disabled automatically if output is not directed to a
terminal or if NO_COLOR environment variable is set. The implementation
is specific to Unix (it employs `tput` if available) but works equally
well in the Git for Windows development environment which emulates Unix
sufficiently.

c9dba103dd Documentation: fix various repeat word typos
Inspired by 24966cd982 ("doc: fix repeated words", 08-09-2019),
I ran "egrep -R "\<([a-zA-Z]+)\> \<\1\>" ./Documentation/*" to
find current cases of repeated words such as "the the" that were
quite clearly typos.

There were many false positives reported, such as "really really"
or valid uses of "that that" which I left alone.

ce74de9(ls-files: introduce "--format" option) miss
a space between two words incorrectly, it leads to

the end of the error message.

c54980ab83 list-objects-filter: convert filter_spec to a strbuf
Originally, the filter_spec field was just a string pointer. In
cf9ceb5a12 (list-objects-filter-options: make filter_spec a string_list,
2019-06-27) it became a string_list, but that commit notes:

    A strbuf would seem to be a more natural choice for this object, but
    it unfortunately requires initialization besides just zero'ing out
    the memory.  This results in all container structs, and all
    containers of those structs, etc., to also require initialization.
    Initializing them all would be more cumbersome that simply using a
    string_list, which behaves properly when its contents are zero'd.

Now that we've changed the struct to require non-zero initialization
anyway (ironically, because string_list also needed non-zero
initialization to avoid leaks), we can now convert to that more natural
type.

This makes the list_objects_filter_spec() function much less awkward, as
it had to collapse the string_list to a single-entry list on the fly.
