builtin rebase: allow selecting the rebase "backend"
With this commit the builtin rebase supports selecting the "rebase
backends" (or "type") `interactive`, `preserve-merges`, and `merge`.
The `state_dir` was already handled according to the rebase type in a
previous commit.
Note that there is one quirk in the shell script: `--interactive`
followed by `--merge` won't reset the type to "merge" but keeps the type
as "interactive". And as t3418 tests this explicitly, we have to support
it in the builtin rebase, too.
Likewise, `--interactive` followed by `--preserve-merges` makes it an
"explicitly interactive" rebase, i.e. a rebase that should show the todo
list, while `--preserve-merges` alone is not interactive (and t5520
tests for this via `git pull --rebase=preserve`).

possible.
When continuing a rebase, the state variables are read from state_dir.
Some of the state variables are not actually stored there, such as

builtin rebase: only store fully-qualified refs in `options.head_name`
When running a rebase on a detached HEAD, we currently store the string
"detached HEAD" in options.head_name. That is a faithful translation of
the shell script version, and we still kind of need it for the purposes of
the scripted backends.
It is poor style for C, though, where we would really only want a valid,
fully-qualified ref name as value, and NULL for detached HEADs, using
"detached HEAD" for display only. Make it so.

This commit introduces a rebase option `--quiet`. While `--quiet` is
commonly perceived as opposite to `--verbose`, this is not the case for
the rebase command: both `--quiet` and `--verbose` default to `false` if
neither `--quiet` nor `--verbose` is present.
Despite the default being `false` for both verbose and quiet mode,
passing the `--quiet` option will turn off verbose mode, and `--verbose`
will turn off quiet mode.
This patch introduces the `flags` bit field, with `REBASE_NO_QUIET`
as first user (with many more to come).
We do *not* use `REBASE_QUIET` here for an important reason: To keep the
implementation simple, this commit introduces `--no-quiet` instead of
`--quiet`, so that a single `OPT_NEGBIT()` can turn on quiet mode and
turn off verbose and diffstat mode at the same time. Likewise, the
companion commit which will introduce support for `--verbose` will have
a single `OPT_BIT()` that turns off quiet mode and turns on verbose and
diffstat mode at the same time.

This commit implements support for an --onto argument that is actually a
"symmetric range" i.e. `<rev1>...<rev2>`.
The equivalent shell script version of the code offers two different
error messages for the cases where there is no merge base vs more than
one merge base.
Though it would be nice to retain this distinction, dropping it makes it
possible to simply use the `get_oid_mb()` function. Besides, it happens
rarely in real-world scenarios.
Therefore, in the interest of keeping the code less complex, let's just
use that function, and live with an error message that does not
distinguish between those two error conditions.

builtin/rebase: support running "git rebase <upstream>"
This patch gives life to the skeleton added in the previous patches:
With this change, we can perform a elementary rebase (without any
options).
It can be tested thusly by:
git -c rebase.usebuiltin=true rebase HEAD~2
The rebase backends (i.e. the shell script functions defined in
`git-rebase--<backend>`) are still at work here and the "builtin
rebase"'s purpose is simply to parse the options and set
everything up so that those rebase backends can do their work.
Note: We take an alternative approach here which is *not* to set the
environment variables via `run_command_v_opt_cd_env()` because those
variables would then be visible by processes spawned from the rebase
backends. Instead, we work hard to set them in the shell script snippet.
On Windows, some of the tests fail merely due to core.fileMode not
being heeded that's why the core.*config variables is parsed here.
The `reset_head()` function is currently only used to detach the HEAD
to onto by way of starting the rebase, but it offers additional
functionality that subsequent patches will need like moving to the
original branch (possibly updating it) and also to do the equivalent of
`git reset --hard`.
The next commits will handle and support all the wonderful rebase
options.

rebase: refactor common shell functions into their own file
The functions present in `git-legacy-rebase.sh` are used by the rebase
backends as they are implemented as shell script functions in the
`git-rebase--<backend>` files.
To make the `builtin/rebase.c` work, we have to provide support via
a Unix shell script snippet that uses these functions and so, we
want to use the rebase backends *directly* from the builtin rebase
without going through `git-legacy-rebase.sh`.
This commit extracts the functions to a separate file,
`git-rebase--common`, that will be read by `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and
by the shell script snippets which will be used extensively in the
following commits.

This commit imitates the strategy that was used to convert the
difftool to a builtin. We start by renaming the shell script
`git-rebase.sh` to `git-legacy-rebase.sh` and introduce a
`builtin/rebase.c` that simply executes the shell script version,
unless the config setting `rebase.useBuiltin` is set to `true`.
The motivation behind this is to rewrite all the functionality of the
shell script version in the aforementioned `rebase.c`, one by one and
be able to conveniently test new features by configuring
`rebase.useBuiltin`.
In the original difftool conversion, if sane_execvp() that attempts to
run the legacy scripted version returned with non-negative status, the
command silently exited without doing anything with success, but
sane_execvp() should not return with non-negative status in the first
place, so we use die() to notice such an abnormal case.
We intentionally avoid reading the config directly to avoid
messing up the GIT_* environment variables when we need to fall back to
exec()ing the shell script. The test of builtin rebase can be done by
`git -c rebase.useBuiltin=true rebase ...`

diff.c: add white space mode to move detection that allows indent changes
The option of --color-moved has proven to be useful as observed on the
mailing list. However when refactoring sometimes the indentation changes,
for example when partitioning a functions into smaller helper functions
the code usually mostly moved around except for a decrease in indentation.
To just review the moved code ignoring the change in indentation, a mode
to ignore spaces in the move detection as implemented in a previous patch
would be enough. However the whole move coloring as motivated in commit 2e2d5ac (diff.c: color moved lines differently, 2017-06-30), brought
up the notion of the reviewer being able to trust the move of a "block".
As there are languages such as python, which depend on proper relative
indentation for the control flow of the program, ignoring any white space
change in a block would not uphold the promises of 2e2d5ac that allows
reviewers to pay less attention to the inside of a block, as inside
the reviewer wants to assume the same program flow.
This new mode of white space ignorance will take this into account and will
only allow the same white space changes per line in each block. This patch
even allows only for the same change at the beginning of the lines.
As this is a white space mode, it is made exclusive to other white space
modes in the move detection.
This patch brings some challenges, related to the detection of blocks.
We need a wide net to catch the possible moved lines, but then need to
narrow down to check if the blocks are still intact. Consider this
example (ignoring block sizes):
- A
- B
- C
+ A
+ B
+ C
At the beginning of a block when checking if there is a counterpart
for A, we have to ignore all space changes. However at the following
lines we have to check if the indent change stayed the same.
Checking if the indentation change did stay the same, is done by computing
the indentation change by the difference in line length, and then assume
the change is only in the beginning of the longer line, the common tail
is the same. That is why the test contains lines like:
- <TAB> A
...
+ A <TAB>
...
As the first line starting a block is caught using a compare function that
ignores white spaces unlike the rest of the block, where the white space
delta is taken into account for the comparison, we also have to think about
the following situation:
- A
- B
- A
- B
+ A
+ B
+ A
+ B
When checking if the first A (both in the + and - lines) is a start of
a block, we have to check all 'A' and record all the white space deltas
such that we can find the example above to be just one block that is
indented.

The "-l" option in "git branch -l" is an unfortunate short-hand for
"--create-reflog", but many users, both old and new, somehow expect
it to be something else, perhaps "--list". This step warns when "-l"
is used as a short-hand for "--create-reflog" and warns about the
future repurposing of the it when it is used.
