The argv_array_detach function (and associated free() function) was
really only useful for transferring ownership of the memory to a "struct
child_process". Now that we have an internal argv_array in that struct,
there are no callers left.

This simplifies the code and avoids a fixed array size that
we might accidentally overflow. It also prevents a leak
after finish_command is run, by using the argv_array that
run-command manages for us.

The get_helper functions dynamically allocates an
argv_array, feeds it to start_command, and then returns. We
then have to later clean up the memory manually after
calling finish_command. We can make this simpler by just
using run-command's internal argv_array, which handles
cleanup for us.
This also prevents a memory leak in the case that
transport_take_over is used, in which case we free the child
in finish_connect, which does not manually free the array.

This avoids magic numbers when we allocate fixed-size argv
arrays, and makes it more obvious that we are not
overflowing.
It is also the first step to fixing a memory leak. When
git_connect returns a child_process struct, the argv array
in the struct is dynamically allocated, but the individual
strings are not (they are either owned elsewhere, or are
freed). Later, in finish_connect, we free the array but
leave the strings alone.
This works for the child_process created by git_connect, but
if we use transport_take_over, we may also end up with a
child_process created by transport-helper's get_helper.
In that case, the strings are freshly allocated, and we
would want to free them. However, we have no idea in
finish_connect which type we have.
By consistently using run-command's internal argv-array, we
do not have to worry about this issue at all; finish_command
takes care of it for us, and we can drop our manual free
entirely.
Note that this actually makes the get_helper leak slightly
worse; now we are leaking both the strings and the array.
But when we adjust it in a future patch, that leak will go
away entirely.

We currently set up the argv array by hand in a fixed-size
stack-local array. Using an argv array is more readable, as
it handles buffer allocation us (not to mention makes it
obvious we do not overflow the array).
However, there's a more subtle benefit, too. We leave the
function having run start_command (with the child_process
in a static global), and then later run finish_command from
another function. That means when we run finish_command,
neither column_process.argv nor the memory it points to is
valid any longer.
Most of the time finish_command does not bother looking at
argv, but it may if it encounters an error (e.g., waitpid
failure or signal death). This is unusual, which is why
nobody has noticed. But by using run-command's built-in
argv_array, the memory ownership is handled for us
automatically.

All child_process structs need to point to an argv. For
flexibility, we do not mandate the use of a dynamic
argv_array. However, because the child_process does not own
the memory, this can make memory management with a
separate argv_array difficult.
For example, if a function calls start_command but not
finish_command, the argv memory must persist. The code needs
to arrange to clean up the argv_array separately after
finish_command runs. As a result, some of our code in this
situation just leaks the memory.
To help such cases, this patch adds a built-in argv_array to
the child_process, which gets cleaned up automatically (both
in finish_command and when start_command fails). Callers
may use it if they choose, but can continue to use the raw
argv if they wish.

Fixes a regression in 1.9.0 with an obviously correct single-liner.
* cl/p4-use-diff-tree:
git-p4: format-patch to diff-tree change breaks binary patches
When applying binary patches a full index is required. format-patch
already handles this, but diff-tree needs '--full-index' argument
to always output full index. When git-p4 runs git-apply to test
the patch, git-apply rejects the patch due to abbreviated blob
object names. This is the error message git-apply emits in this
case:
error: cannot apply binary patch to '<filename>' without full index line
error: <filename>: patch does not apply

It turns out that some platforms do ship without curl-config even
though they build with the hardcoded default -lcurl and rely on it
to work.
* db/make-with-curl:
Makefile: default to -lcurl when no CURL_CONFIG or CURLDIR
Crash fix for codepath that miscounted the necessary size for an
array when spawning an external diff program.
* 'jk/external-diff-use-argv-array' (early part):
run_external_diff: use an argv_array for the command line
The original implementation of CURL_CONFIG support did not match the
original behavior of using -lcurl when CURLDIR was not set. This broke
implementations that were lacking curl-config but did have libcurl
installed along system libraries, such as MSysGit. In other words, the
assumption that curl-config is always installed was incorrect.
Instead, if CURL_CONFIG is empty or returns an empty result (e.g. due
to curl-config being missing), use the old behavior of falling back to
-lcurl.

Fix a buffer over-stepping issue triggered by providing an absolute path
that is similar to the work tree path.
abspath_part_inside_repo() may currently increment the path pointer by
offset_1st_component() + wtlen, which is too much, since
offset_1st_component() is a subset of wtlen.
For the *nix-style prefix '/', this does (by luck) not cause any issues,
since offset_1st_component() is 1 and there will always be a '/' or '\0'
that can "absorb" this.
In the case of DOS-style prefixes though, the offset_1st_component() is
3 and this can potentially over-step the string buffer. For example if
work_tree = "c:/r"
path = "c:/rl"
Then wtlen is 4, and incrementing the path pointer by (3 + 4) would
end up 2 bytes outside a string buffer of length 6.
Similarly if
work_tree = "c:/r"
path = "c:/rl/d/a"
Then (since the loop starts by also incrementing the pointer one step),
this would mean that the function would miss checking if "c:/rl/d" could
be the work_tree, arguably this is unlikely though, since it would only
be possible with symlinks on windows.
Fix this by simply avoiding to increment by offset_1st_component() and
wtlen at the same time.
