mergetool: use path to mergetool in config var mergetool.<tool>.path
This commit adds a mechanism to provide absolute paths to the
external programs called by 'git mergetool'. A path can be
specified in the configuation variable mergetool.<tool>.path.
The configuration variable is similar to how we name branches
and remotes. It is extensible if we need to specify more details
about a tool.
The mechanism is especially useful on Windows, where external
programs are unlikely to be in PATH.

Previously, we updated the tracking refs (which match refs we
are pushing) while generating the list of refs to send.
However, at that point we don't know whether the refs were
accepted.
Instead, we now wait until we get a response code from the
server. If an error was indicated, we don't update any local
tracking refs. Technically some refs could have been updated
on the remote, but since the local ref update is just an
optimization to avoid an extra fetch, we are better off
erring on the side of correctness.
The user-visible message is now generated much later in the
program, and has been tweaked to make more sense.

git-blame shouldn't crash if run in an unmerged tree
If we are in the middle of resolving a merge conflict there may be
one or more files whose entries in the index represent an unmerged
state (index entries in the higher-order stages).
Attempting to run git-blame on any file in such a working directory
resulted in "fatal: internal error: ce_mode is 0" as we use the magic
marker for an unmerged entry is 0 (set up by things like diff-lib.c's
do_diff_cache() and builtin-read-tree.c's read_tree_unmerged())
and the ce_match_stat_basic() function gets upset about this.
I'm not entirely sure that the whole "ce_mode = 0" case is a good
idea to begin with, and maybe the right thing to do is to remove
that horrid freakish special case, but removing the internal error
seems to be the simplest fix for now.

Now that some pointers have lost their const attribute, we can free their

Two functions, namely write_idx_file() and open_pack_file(), currently
return a const pointer. However that pointer is either a copy of the
first argument, or set to a malloc'd buffer when that first argument
is null. In the later case it is wrong to qualify that pointer as const
since ownership of the buffer is transferred to the caller to dispose of,
and obviously the free() function is not meant to be passed const
pointers.
Making the return pointer not const causes a warning when the first
argument is returned since that argument is also marked const.
The correct thing to do is therefore to remove the const qualifiers,
avoiding the need for ugly casts only to silence some warnings.

Clean up "git log" format with DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT
This fixes an unnecessary empty line that we add to the log message when
we generate diffs, but don't actually end up printing any due to having
DIFF_FORMAT_NO_OUTPUT set.
This can happen with pickaxe or with rename following. The reason is that
we normally add an empty line between the commit and the diff, but we do
that even for the case where we've then suppressed the actual printing of
the diff.
This also updates a couple of tests that assumed the extraneous empty
line would exist at the end of output.

patch to revision.c ("Fix revision log diff setup, avoid unnecessary diff
generation", commit b7bb760d5ed4881422673d32f869d140221d3564).
Why? Because --follow obviously requires the diff machinery to function,
exactly the same way pickaxe does.
So everybody is away right now, but considering that nobody even noticed
this bug, I don't think it matters. But for the record, here's the trivial
one-liner fix (well, two, since I also fixed the comment).
Because of the nature of the bug, if you ask for patches when following
(which is one of the things I normally do), the bug is hidden, because
then the request for diff output will automatically also enable the diffs
themselves.
So while "git log --follow <filename>" didn't work, adding a "-p"
magically made it work again even without this fix.

Unfortunately the authors of Tcl did not bless us with the APIs
needed to create shortcuts from within Tcl. But Microsoft did
give us Windows Scripting Host which allows us to execute some
JavaScript that calls some sort of COM object that can operate
on a .lnk file.

unnecessary.
Since the recent repository list is shown as a list of hyperlinks we
now offer the 3 basic startup actions as hyperlinks. Clicking on a
link will immediately jump to the next UI panel, saving the user time
as they don't need to click an additional button.

git-gui: offer a list of recent repositories on startup
If git-gui is started outside a work tree the repository chooser
will offer a list of recently opened repositories. Clicking on
any list entry directly opens the repository.
The list of recently opened repositories is stored in the config
as the multi-valued option gui.recentrepo. If the list grows beyond
10 entries it will be truncated by removing one of the older entries.
Only repositories that are opened through the repository chooser
will get added to the recent list. Repositories opened from the
shell will not yet be added to the recent list, as users are likely
to have a way to easily return to the same directory via their shell.
[sp: This is actually a combined work from both Steffen and myself.
Most of the ideas are Steffen's, as is the basic outline of
the code, but any outstanding bugs are entirely my fault.]

git-gui: Support LFs embedded in config file values
Using the new --null option added to git-config in git 1.5.3 we
can safely accept LFs that are embedded in configuration options.
This does require a completely different configuration file parser
then the pre 1.5.3 version as we are splitting on very different
values.

The parsing for the output of `git config --list` is the same for
both the global options and the current repository's options so we
can really just use the same parser between them.
I'm currently just refactoring the parser so we can use a different
one depending on the version of git available to us at runtime. My
next change will add support for 1.5.3's --null option.

To better handle configuration options that contain LFs in their
values we want to use the new -z option available in git-config
version 1.5.3 and later. To configure load_config based upon the
git version we need to move thos below the git-version computation.
No logic changes yet, just a minor reordering of the code.
