test-lib.sh: do tests for color support after changing HOME
If ncurses needs ~/.terminfo for the current $TERM, then tput will
succeed before changing HOME to $TRASH_DIRECTORY but fail afterward.
Move the tests that determine whether there is color support after
changing HOME so that color=t is set if and only if tput would succeed
when say_color() is run.
Note that color=t is now set after --no-color is processed, so the
condition to set color=t has changed: it is now set only if
color has not already been set to the empty string by --no-color.
This disables color support for those that need ~/.terminfo for
their TERM, but it's better than filling the screen with:
An alternative would be to symlink or copy the user's terminfo
database into $TRASH_DIRECTORY, but this is tricky due to the lack of
a standard name for the terminfo database (for example, instead of a
~/.terminfo directory, NetBSD uses a ~/.terminfo.cdb database file).

Now that the index can block pathnames that can be mistaken
to mean ".git" on NTFS and FAT32, it would be helpful for
fsck to notice such problematic paths. This lets servers
which use receive.fsckObjects block them before the damage
spreads.
Note that the fsck check is always on, even for systems
without core.protectNTFS set. This is technically more
restrictive than we need to be, as a set of users on ext4
could happily use these odd filenames without caring about
NTFS.
However, on balance, it's helpful for all servers to block
these (because the paths can be used for mischief, and
servers which bother to fsck would want to stop the spread
whether they are on NTFS themselves or not), and hardly
anybody will be affected (because the blocked names are
variants of .git or git~1, meaning mischief is almost
certainly what the tree author had in mind).
Ideally these would be controlled by a separate
"fsck.protectNTFS" flag. However, it would be much nicer to
be able to enable/disable _any_ fsck flag individually, and
any scheme we choose should match such a system. Given the
likelihood of anybody using such a path in practice, it is
not unreasonable to wait until such a system materializes.

The point of disallowing ".git" in the index is that we
would never want to accidentally overwrite files in the
repository directory. But this means we need to respect the
filesystem's idea of when two paths are equal. The prior
commit added a helper to make such a comparison for NTFS
and FAT32; let's use it in verify_path().
We make this check optional for two reasons:
1. It restricts the set of allowable filenames, which is
unnecessary for people who are not on NTFS nor FAT32.
In practice this probably doesn't matter, though, as
the restricted names are rather obscure and almost
certainly would never come up in practice.
2. It has a minor performance penalty for every path we
insert into the index.
This patch ties the check to the core.protectNTFS config
option. Though this is expected to be most useful on Windows,
we allow it to be set everywhere, as NTFS may be mounted on
other platforms. The variable does default to on for Windows,
though.

We do not allow paths with a ".git" component to be added to
the index, as that would mean repository contents could
overwrite our repository files. However, asking "is this
path the same as .git" is not as simple as strcmp() on some
filesystems.
On NTFS (and FAT32), there exist so-called "short names" for
backwards-compatibility: 8.3 compliant names that refer to the same files
as their long names. As ".git" is not an 8.3 compliant name, a short name
is generated automatically, typically "git~1".
Depending on the Windows version, any combination of trailing spaces and
periods are ignored, too, so that both "git~1." and ".git." still refer
to the Git directory. The reason is that 8.3 stores file names shorter
than 8 characters with trailing spaces. So literally, it does not matter
for the short name whether it is padded with spaces or whether it is
shorter than 8 characters, it is considered to be the exact same.
The period is the separator between file name and file extension, and
again, an empty extension consists just of spaces in 8.3 format. So
technically, we would need only take care of the equivalent of this
regex:
(\.git {0,4}|git~1 {0,3})\. {0,3}
However, there are indications that at least some Windows versions might
be more lenient and accept arbitrary combinations of trailing spaces and
periods and strip them out. So we're playing it real safe here. Besides,
there can be little doubt about the intention behind using file names
matching even the more lenient pattern specified above, therefore we
should be fine with disallowing such patterns.
Extra care is taken to catch names such as '.\\.git\\booh' because the
backslash is marked as a directory separator only on Windows, and we want
to use this new helper function also in fsck on other platforms.
A big thank you goes to Ed Thomson and an unnamed Microsoft engineer for
the detailed analysis performed to come up with the corresponding fixes
for libgit2.
This commit adds a function to detect whether a given file name can refer
to the Git directory by mistake.

Now that the index can block pathnames that case-fold to

HFS+'s case-folding does more than just fold uppercase into
lowercase (which we already handle with strcasecmp). It may
also skip past certain "ignored" Unicode code points, so
that (for example) ".gi\u200ct" is mapped ot ".git".
The full list of folds can be found in the tables at:
Implementing a full "is this path the same as that path"
comparison would require us importing the whole set of
tables. However, what we want to do is much simpler: we
only care about checking ".git". We know that 'G' is the
only thing that folds to 'g', and so on, so we really only
need to deal with the set of ignored code points, which is
much smaller.

We complain about ".git" in a tree because it cannot be

same, so that errors do not propagate.

We do not allow ".git" to enter into the index as a path
component, because checking out the result to the working
tree may causes confusion for subsequent git commands.
However, on case-insensitive file systems, ".Git" or ".GIT"
is the same. We should catch and prevent those, too.
Note that technically we could allow this for repos on
case-sensitive filesystems. But there's not much point. It's
unlikely that anybody cares, and it creates a repository
that is unexpectedly non-portable to other systems.
