When an absolute path is resolved, resolution begins at the first path
component after the root part. The root part is just copied verbatim,
because it must not be inspected for symbolic links. For POSIX paths,
this is just the initial slash, but on Windows, the root part has the
forms c:\ or \\server\share. We do want to canonicalize the back-slashes
in the root part because these parts are compared to the result of
getcwd(), which does return a fully canonicalized path.
Factor out a helper that splits off the root part, and have it
canonicalize the copied part.
This change was prompted because t1504-ceiling-dirs.sh caught a breakage
in GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES handling on Windows.

Change the name of real_path_internal to strbuf_realpath. In addition
push the static strbuf up to its callers and instead take as a
parameter a pointer to a strbuf to use for the final result.
This change makes strbuf_realpath reentrant.

The current implementation of real_path uses chdir() in order to resolve
symlinks. Unfortunately this isn't thread-safe as chdir() affects a
process as a whole and not just an individual thread. Instead perform
the symlink resolution by hand so that the calls to chdir() can be
removed, making real_path one step closer to being reentrant.

Recent update to git-sh-setup (a library of shell functions that

"git daemon" used fixed-length buffers to turn URL to the

Since 650c44925 (common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path(),
2016-07-01), the argv[0] that is seen in cmd_main() of
individual programs is always the basename of the
executable, as common-main strips off the full path. This
can produce confusing results for git-daemon, which wants to
re-exec itself.
For instance, if the program was originally run as
"/usr/lib/git/git-daemon", it will try just re-execing
"git-daemon", which will find the first instance in $PATH.
If git's exec-path has not been prepended to $PATH, we may
find the git-daemon from a different version (or no
git-daemon at all).
Normally this isn't a problem. Git commands are run as "git
daemon", the git wrapper puts the exec-path at the front of
$PATH, and argv[0] is already "daemon" anyway. But running
git-daemon via its full exec-path, while not really a
recommended method, did work prior to 650c44925. Let's make
it work again.
The real goal of 650c44925 was not to munge argv[0], but to
reliably set the argv0_path global. The only reason it
munges at all is that one caller, the git.c wrapper,
piggy-backed on that computation to find the command
basename. Instead, let's leave argv[0] untouched in
common-main, and have git.c do its own basename computation.
While we're at it, let's drop the return value from
git_extract_argv0_path(). It was only ever used in this one
callsite, and its dual purposes is what led to this
confusion in the first place.
Note that by changing the interface, the compiler can
confirm for us that there are no other callers storing the
return value. But the compiler can't tell us whether any of
the cmd_main() functions (besides git.c) were relying on the
basename munging. However, we can observe that prior to
650c44925, no other cmd_main() functions did that munging,
and no new cmd_main() functions have been introduced since
then. So we can't be regressing any of those cases.
