Delete Documentation/technical/api-builtin.txt and move its content
into builtin.h. Format it as a comment. Remove a '+' which was needed
when the information was formatted for AsciiDoc. Similarly, change
"::" to ":".
Document SUPPORT_SUPER_PREFIX, thereby bringing the documentation up to
date with the available flags.
While at it, correct '3 more things to do' to '4 more things to do'.

Code refactoring.
* pw/unquote-path-in-git-pm:
t9700: add tests for Git::unquote_path()
Git::unquote_path(): throw an exception on bad path
Git::unquote_path(): handle '\a'
add -i: move unquote_path() to Git.pm
We run an early part of "git gc" that deals with refs before
daemonising (and not under lock) even when running a background
auto-gc, which caused multiple gc processes attempting to run the
early part at the same time. This is now prevented by running the
early part also under the GC lock.
* jk/gc-pre-detach-under-hook:
gc: run pre-detach operations under lock
Code clean-up, that makes us in sync with Debian by one patch.
* jn/hooks-pre-rebase-sample-fix:
pre-rebase hook: capture documentation in a <<here document
The progress meter did not give a useful output when we haven't had
0.5 seconds to measure the throughput during the interval. Instead
show the overall throughput rate at the end, which is a much more
useful number.
* rs/progress-overall-throughput-at-the-end:
progress: show overall rate in last update
On Cygwin, similar to Windows, "git push //server/share/repository"
ought to mean a repository on a network share that can be accessed
locally, but this did not work correctly due to stripping the double
slashes at the beginning.
This may need to be heavily tested before it gets unleashed to the
wild, as the change is at a fairly low-level code and would affect
not just the code to decide if the push destination is local. There
may be unexpected fallouts in the path normalization.
* tb/push-to-cygwin-unc-path:
cygwin: allow pushing to UNC paths
Code cleanup.
* rs/apply-avoid-over-reading:
apply: use strcmp(3) for comparing strings in gitdiff_verify_name()
apply: use starts_with() in gitdiff_verify_name()
When attempting to blame a non-existing path, git should show an error
message like this:
$ git blame e83c51633 -- nonexisting-file
fatal: no such path nonexisting-file in e83c51633
Since the recent commit 835c49f7d (blame: rework methods that
determine 'final' commit, 2017-05-24) the revision name is either
missing or some scrambled characters are shown instead. The reason is
that the revision name must be duplicated, because it is invalidated
when the pending objects array is cleared in the meantime, but this
commit dropped the duplication.
Restore the duplication of the revision name in the affected functions
(find_single_final() and find_single_initial()).

A recent update broke an alias that contained an uppercase letter.

It turns out that Cygwin also needs the fopen() wrapper that
returns failure when a directory is opened for reading.

We started using "%" PRItime, imitating "%" PRIuMAX and friends, as
a way to format the internal timestamp value, but this does not
play well with gettext(1) i18n framework, and causes "make pot"
that is run by the l10n coordinator to create a broken po/git.pot
file. This is a possible workaround for that problem.
* jc/po-pritime-fix:
Makefile: help gettext tools to cope with our custom PRItime format
