Makefile: quote $INSTLIBDIR when passing it to sed
f6a0ad4b (Makefile: generate Perl header from template file,
2018-04-10) moved code for generating the 'use lib' lines at the top
of perl scripts from the $(SCRIPT_PERL_GEN) rule to a separate
GIT-PERL-HEADER rule.
This rule first populates INSTLIBDIR and then substitutes it into the
GIT-PERL-HEADER using sed:
INSTLIBDIR=... something ...
sed -e 's=@@INSTLIBDIR@@='$$INSTLIBDIR'=g' $< > $@
Because $INSTLIBDIR is not surrounded by double quotes, the shell
splits it at each space, causing errors if INSTLIBDIR contains an $IFS
character:
Junio noticed that this variable is not quoted correctly when it is
passed to sed. As a shell-quoted string, it should be inside
single-quotes like $(perllibdir_relative_SQ), not outside them like
$INSTLIBDIR.
In fact, this substitution variable is not used. Simplify by removing
it.

Introduce the mem_pool type which encapsulates all the information necessary to
manage a pool of memory. This change moves the existing variables in
fast-import used to support the global memory pool to use this structure. It
also renames variables that are no longer used by memory pools to reflect their
more scoped usage.
These changes allow for the multiple instances of a memory pool to
exist and be reused outside of fast-import. In a future commit the
mem_pool type will be moved to its own file.

exec_cmd: provide a new-style RUNTIME_PREFIX helper for Windows
The RUNTIME_PREFIX feature comes from Git for Windows, but it was
enhanced to allow support for other platforms. While changing the
original idea, the concept was also improved by not forcing argv[0] to
be adjusted.
Let's allow the same for Windows by implementing a helper just as for
the other platforms.

Enable Git to resolve its own binary location using a variety of
OS-specific and generic methods, including:
- procfs via "/proc/self/exe" (Linux)
- _NSGetExecutablePath (Darwin)
- KERN_PROC_PATHNAME sysctl on BSDs.
- argv0, if absolute (all, including Windows).
This is used to enable RUNTIME_PREFIX support for non-Windows systems,
notably Linux and Darwin. When configured with RUNTIME_PREFIX, Git will
do a best-effort resolution of its executable path and automatically use
this as its "exec_path" for relative helper and data lookups, unless
explicitly overridden.
Small incidental formatting cleanup of "exec_cmd.c".

Broaden the RUNTIME_PREFIX flag to configure Git's Perl scripts to
locate the Git installation's Perl support libraries by resolving
against the script's path, rather than hard-coding that path at
build-time. Hard-coding at build time worked on previous
RUNTIME_PREFIX configurations (i.e., Windows) because the Perl
scripts were run within a virtual filesystem whose paths were
consistent regardless of the location of the actual installation.
This will no longer be the case for non-Windows RUNTIME_PREFIX users.
When enabled, RUNTIME_PREFIX now requires Perl's system paths to be
expressed relative to a common installation directory in the Makefile,
and uses that relationship to locate support files based on the known
starting point of the script being executed, much like RUNTIME_PREFIX
does for the Git binary.
This change enables Git's Perl scripts to work when their Git installation
is relocated or moved to another system, even when they are not in a
virtual filesystem environment.

Currently, the generated Perl script headers are emitted by commands in
the Makefile. This mechanism restricts options to introduce alternative
header content, needed by Perl runtime prefix support, and obscures the
origin of the Perl script header.
Change the Makefile to generate a header by processing a template file and
move the header content into the "perl/" subdirectory. The generated
header content will now be stored in the "GIT-PERL-HEADER" file. This
allows the content of the Perl header to be controlled by changing the path
of the template in the Makefile.

fsmonitor currently only flags the index as dirty if the extension is being
added or removed. This is a performance optimization that recognizes you can
stat() a lot of files in less time than it takes to write out an updated index.
This patch makes a small enhancement and flags the index dirty if we end up
having to stat() all files and scan the entire working directory. The assumption
being that must be expensive or you would not have turned on the feature.

before real Git-using projects are harmed.

commit: integrate commit graph with commit parsing
Teach Git to inspect a commit graph file to supply the contents of a
struct commit when calling parse_commit_gently(). This implementation
satisfies all post-conditions on the struct commit, including loading
parents, the root tree, and the commit date.
If core.commitGraph is false, then do not check graph files.
In test script t5318-commit-graph.sh, add output-matching conditions on
read-only graph operations.
By loading commits from the graph instead of parsing commit buffers, we
save a lot of time on long commit walks. Here are some performance
results for a copy of the Linux repository where 'master' has 678,653
reachable commits and is behind 'origin/master' by 59,929 commits.
Teach write_commit_graph() to walk all parents from the commits
discovered in packfiles. This prevents gaps given by loose objects or
previously-missed packfiles.
Also automatically add commits from the existing graph file, if it
exists.

From the output of ls-files, we remove all but the leftmost path
component and then we eliminate duplicates. We do this in a while loop,
which is a performance bottleneck when the number of iterations is large
(e.g. for 60000 files in linux.git).
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m11.876s
user 0m4.685s
sys 0m6.808s
Replacing the loop with the cut command improves performance
significantly:
$ COMP_WORDS=(git status -- ar) COMP_CWORD=3; time _git
real 0m1.372s
user 0m0.263s
sys 0m0.167s
The measurements were done with Msys2 bash, which is used by Git for
Windows.
When filtering the ls-files output we take care not to touch absolute
paths. This is redundant, because ls-files will never output absolute
paths. Remove the unnecessary operations.
