differences between the stock "ssh" and Putty-supplied "plink" and

We have prepended $GIT_EXEC_PATH and the path "git" is installed in
(typically "/usr/bin") to $PATH when invoking subprograms and hooks
for almost eternity, but the original use case the latter tried to
support was semi-bogus (i.e. install git to /opt/foo/git and run it
without having /opt/foo on $PATH), and more importantly it has
become less and less relevant as Git grew more mainstream (i.e. the
users would _want_ to have it on their $PATH). Stop prepending the
path in which "git" is installed to users' $PATH, as that would
interfere the command search order people depend on (e.g. they may
not like versions of programs that are unrelated to Git in /usr/bin
and want to override them by having different ones in /usr/local/bin
and have the latter directory earlier in their $PATH).

The XDG base dir spec[1] specifies that configuration files be stored in
a subdirectory in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. To construct such a configuration
file path, home_config_paths() can be used. However, home_config_paths()
combines distinct functionality:
1. Retrieve the home git config file path ~/.gitconfig
2. Construct the XDG config path of the file specified by `file`.
This function was introduced in commit 21cf3227 ("read (but not write)
from $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/config file"). While the intention of the
function was to allow the home directory configuration file path and the
xdg directory configuration file path to be retrieved with one function
call, the hard-coding of the path ~/.gitconfig prevents it from being
used for other configuration files. Furthermore, retrieving a file path
relative to the user's home directory can be done with
expand_user_path(). Hence, it can be seen that home_config_paths()
introduces unnecessary complexity, especially if a user just wants to
retrieve the xdg config file path.
As such, implement a simpler function xdg_config_home() for constructing
the XDG base dir spec configuration file path. This function, together
with expand_user_path(), can replace all uses of home_config_paths().

git-compat-util.h: implement a different ARRAY_SIZE macro for for safely deriving the size of array
To get number of elements in an array git use the ARRAY_SIZE macro
defined as:
#define ARRAY_SIZE(x) (sizeof(x)/sizeof((x)[0]))
The problem with it is a possibility of mistakenly passing to it a
pointer instead an array. The ARRAY_SIZE macro as conventionally
defined does not provide good type-safety and the open-coded
approach is more fragile, more verbose and provides no improvement in
type-safety.
Use instead a different but compatible ARRAY_SIZE() macro,
which will also break compile if you try to
use it on a pointer. This implemention revert to the original code
if the compiler doesn't know the typeof and __builtin_types_compatible_p
GCC extensions.
This can ensure our code is robust to changes, without
needing a gratuitous macro or constant. A similar
ARRAY_SIZE implementation also exists in the linux kernel.

write_sha1_file(): do not use a separate sha1[] array
In the beginning, write_sha1_file() did not have a way to tell the
caller the name of the object it wrote to the caller. This was
changed in d6d3f9d0 (This implements the new "recursive tree"
write-tree., 2005-04-09) by adding the "returnsha1" parameter to the
function so that the callers who are interested in the value can
optionally pass a pointer to receive it.
It turns out that all callers do want to know the name of the object
it just has written. Nobody passes a NULL to this parameter, hence
it is not necessary to use a separate sha1[] array to receive the
result from write_sha1_file_prepare(), and copy the result to the
returnsha1 supplied by the caller.

The die() / error() / warning() helpers put a fatal: / error: /
warning: prefix in front of the error message they print describing
the message's severity, which users are likely to be accustomed to
seeing these days.
This change will also be useful when marking the message for
translation: the argument to error() includes no newline at the end,
so it is less fussy for translators to translate without lines running
together in the translated output.
While we're here, start the error messages with a lowercase letter to
match the usual typography of error messages.

blame: CRLF in the working tree and LF in the repo
A typical setup under Windows is to set core.eol to CRLF, and text
files are marked as "text" in .gitattributes, or core.autocrlf is
set to true.
After 4d4813a5 "git blame" no longer works as expected for such a
set-up. Every line is annotated as "Not Committed Yet", even though
the working directory is clean. This is because the commit removed
the conversion in blame.c for all files, with or without CRLF in the
repo.
Having files with CRLF in the repo and core.autocrlf=input is a
temporary situation, and the files, if committed as is, will be
normalized in the repo, which _will_ be a notable change. Blaming
them with "Not Committed Yet" is the right result. Revert commit 4d4813a5 which was a misguided attempt to "solve" a non-problem.
Add two test cases in t8003 to verify the correct CRLF conversion.

filter-branch: avoid passing commit message through sed
On some systems (like OS X), if sed encounters input without
a trailing newline, it will silently add it. As a result,
"git filter-branch" on such systems may silently rewrite
commit messages that omit a trailing newline. Even though
this is not something we generate ourselves with "git
commit", it's better for filter-branch to preserve the
original data as closely as possible.
We're using sed here only to strip the header fields from
the commit object. We can accomplish the same thing with a
shell loop. Since shell "read" calls are slow (usually one
syscall per byte), we use "cat" once we've skipped past the
header. Depending on the size of your commit messages, this
is probably faster (you pay the cost to fork, but then read
the data in saner-sized chunks). This idea is shamelessly
stolen from Junio.

connect: improve check for plink to reduce false positives
The git_connect function has code to handle plink and tortoiseplink
specially, as they require different command line arguments from
OpenSSH (-P instead of -p for ports; tortoiseplink additionally requires
-batch). However, the match was done by checking for "plink" anywhere
in the string, which led to a GIT_SSH value containing "uplink" being
treated as an invocation of putty's plink.
Improve the check by looking for "plink" or "tortoiseplink" (or those
names suffixed with ".exe") only in the final component of the path.
This has the downside that a program such as "plink-0.63" would no
longer be recognized, but the increased robustness is likely worth it.
Add tests to cover these cases to avoid regressions.

t5601: fix quotation error leading to skipped tests
One of the tests in t5601 used single quotes to delimit an argument
containing spaces. However, this caused test_expect_success to be
passed three arguments instead of two, which in turn caused the test
name to be treated as a prerequisite instead of a test name. As there
was no prerequisite called "bracketed hostnames are still ssh", the test
was always skipped.
Because this test was always skipped, the fact that it passed the
arguments in the wrong order was obscured. Use double quotes inside the
test and reorder the arguments so that the test runs and properly
reflects the arguments that are passed to ssh.

Brian Carson noticed that a test piece in t5601 had a pair of single
quotes in the body, which made it into 4 parameter call to
test_expect_success, as if its test title were a prerequisite.
As the prerequisites have a specific syntax (i.e. comma separated
tokens spelled in capital letters, possibly prefixed with ! for
negation), validate them to catch such a mistake in the future.
Use test_lazy_prereq to setup prerequisites for the p4 move
test. This both makes the test simpler and clearer, and also
means it no longer fails the new --chain-lint tests.
