If the user gives us no starting point for a traversal, we
want to complain with our normal usage message. But if they
tried to do so with "--all" or "--glob", but that happened
not to match any refs, the usage message isn't helpful. We
should just give them the empty output they asked for
instead.

In 751a2ac6e (rev-list --exclude: tests, 2013-11-01), we
added a few tests for handling "empty" inputs with rev-list
(i.e., where the user gave us some pattern but it turned out
not to queue any objects for traversal), all of which were
marked as failing.
In preparation for working on this area of the code, let's
give each test a more descriptive name. Let's also include
one more case which we should cover: feeding a --glob
pattern that doesn't match anything.
We can also drop the explanatory comment; we'll be
converting these to expect_success in the next few patches,
so the discussion isn't necessary.

Teach "rev-parse" the same "I'm going to glob, but omit the ones
that match these patterns" feature as "rev-list".

Add tests for the --exclude=<glob> feature.
A few tests are added for cases where use of globbing and
"--exclude" results in no positive revisions:
* "--exclude=<glob>" before "--all" etc. resulted in no results;
* "--stdin" is used but no input was given;
* "--all" etc. is used but no matching refs are found.
Currently, we fail such a request with the same error message we
would give to a command line that does not specify any positive
revision (e.g. "git rev-list<ENTER>").
We may want to treat these cases differently and not error out, but
the logic to detect that would be common to all of them, so I'd
leave it outside this topic for now, and stop at adding these tests
as food-for-thought.

As v1.6.0-rc2~42 (2008-07-31) explains, even pseudo-options like --not
and --glob that need to be parsed in order with revisions should be
marked handled by handle_revision_opt to avoid an error when
parse_revision_opt callers like "git shortlog" encounter them.

Since local branch, tags and remote tracking branch namespaces are
most often used, add shortcut notations for globbing those in
manner similar to --glob option.
With this, one can express the "what I have but origin doesn't?"
as:
'git log --branches --not --remotes=origin'

Add --glob=<glob-pattern> option to rev-parse and everything that
accepts its options. This option matches all refs that match given
shell glob pattern (complete with some DWIM logic).
Example:
'git log --branches --not --glob=remotes/origin'
To show what you have that origin doesn't.
