This fixes another problem that Andy's case showed: git-fsck-objects
reports nonsensical results for corrupt objects.
There were actually two independent and confusing problems:
- when we had a zero-sized file and used map_sha1_file, mmap() would
return EINVAL, and git-fsck-objects would report that as an insane and
confusing error. I don't know when this was introduced, it might have
been there forever.
- when "parse_object()" returned NULL, fsck would say "object not found",
which can be very confusing, since obviously the object might "exist",
it's just unparseable because it's totally corrupt.
So this just makes "xmmap()" return NULL for a zero-sized object (which is
a valid thing pointer, exactly the same way "malloc()" can return NULL for
a zero-sized allocation). That fixes the first problem (but we could have
fixed it in the caller too - I don't personally much care whichever way it
goes, but maybe somebody should check that the NO_MMAP case does
something sane in this case too?).
And the second problem is solved by just making the error message slightly
clearer - the failure to parse an object may be because it's missing or
corrupt, not necessarily because it's not "found".

In the early days of Git we performed a 3-way read-tree based merge
before attempting any specific merge strategy, as our core merge
strategies of merge-one-file and merge-recursive were slower script
based programs which took far longer to execute. This was a good
performance optimization in the past, as most merges were able to
be handled strictly by `read-tree -m -u`.
However now that merge-recursive is a C based program which performs
a full 3-way read-tree before it starts running we need to pay the
cost of the 3-way read-tree twice if we have to do any sort of file
level merging. This slows down some classes of simple merges which
`read-tree -m -u` could not handle but which merge-recursive does
automatically.
For a really trivial merge which can be handled entirely by
`read-tree -m -u`, skipping the read-tree and just going directly
into merge-recursive saves on average 50 ms on my PowerPC G4 system.
May sound odd, but it does appear to be true.
In a really simple merge which needs to use merge-recursive to handle
a file that was modified on both branches, skipping the read-tree
in git-merge saves on average almost 100 ms (on the same PowerPC G4)
as we avoid doing some work twice.
We only avoid `read-tree -m -u` if the only strategy to use is
merge-recursive, as not all merge strategies perform as well as
merge-recursive does.

If the user tries to run a porcelainish command which requires
a working directory in a bare repository they may get unexpected
results which are difficult to predict and may differ from command
to command.
Instead we should detect that the current repository is a bare
repository and refuse to run the command there, as there is no
working directory associated with it.

outline in:

once from merge-recursive. Also there is no need to write out

The merge-recursive implementation in C inherited the invariant
that the on-file index file is written out and later read back
after any index operations and writing trees from the original
Python implementation. But it was only because the original
implementation worked at the scripting level.
There is no need to write out the index file after handling
every path.

My sp/mmap changes to pack-check.c modified the function such that
it expects packed_git.pack_size to be populated with the total
bytecount of the packfile by the caller.
But that isn't the case for packs obtained by git-http-fetch as
pack_size was not initialized before being accessed. This caused
verify_pack to think it had 2^32-21 bytes available when the
downloaded pack perhaps was only 305 bytes in length. The use_pack
function then later dies with "offset beyond end of packfile"
when computing the overall file checksum.

Further, it makes no sense to force the parsing upon the helper

of this family of calls:
1) convert the existing write_or_whine() to write_or_whine_pipe()
to better indicate its pipe specific nature,
2) convert the existing write_in_full() calls to write_or_whine()
to better indicate its nature,
3) introduce a write_in_full() providing a write or fail semantic,
and
4) convert write_or_whine() and write_or_whine_pipe() to use
