After "rerere" resolves conflicts by reusing old resolution, there would
be three kinds of paths with conflict in the index:
* paths that have been resolved in the working tree by rerere;
* paths that need further work whose resolution could be recorded;
* paths that need resolving that rerere won't help.
When the user wants a list of paths that need hand-resolving, output from
"rerere status" does not help, as it shows only the second category, but
the paths in the third category still needs work (rerere only makes sense
for regular files that have both our side and their side, and does not
help other kinds of conflicts, e.g. "we modified, they deleted").
The new subcommand "rerere remaining" can be used to show both. As
opposed to "rerere status", this subcommand also skips printing paths
that have been added to the index, since these paths are already
resolved and are no longer "remaining".
Initial patch provided by Junio. Refactored and modified to skip
resolved paths by Martin. Commit message mostly by Junio.

* jc/cache-unmerge:
rerere forget path: forget recorded resolution
rerere: refactor rerere logic to make it independent from I/O
rerere: remove silly 1024-byte line limit
resolve-undo: teach "update-index --unresolve" to use resolve-undo info
resolve-undo: "checkout -m path" uses resolve-undo information
resolve-undo: allow plumbing to clear the information
resolve-undo: basic tests
resolve-undo: record resolved conflicts in a new index extension section
builtin-merge.c: use standard active_cache macros
Conflicts:
builtin-ls-files.c
builtin-merge.c
builtin-rerere.c
After you find out an earlier resolution you told rerere to use was a
mismerge, there is no easy way to clear it. A new subcommand "forget" can
be used to tell git to forget a recorded resolution, so that you can redo
the merge from scratch.

Introduce a command line option to override rerere.autoupdate configuration
variable to make it more useful.

Both rerere.c and builtin-rerere.c define the static functions
rr_path() and has_resolution() the exact same way. To eliminate this
code duplication this patch turns the functions in rerere.c
non-static, and makes builtin-rerere.c use them. Also, since this
puts these two functions into the global namespace, rename them to
rerere_path() and has_rerere_resolution(), respectively, and rename
their "name" parameter to "hex", because it better reflects what that
parameter actually is.

The name path_list was correct for the first usage of that data structure,
but it really is a general-purpose string list.
$ perl -i -pe 's/path-list/string-list/g' $(git grep -l path-list)
$ perl -i -pe 's/path_list/string_list/g' $(git grep -l path_list)
$ git mv path-list.h string-list.h
$ git mv path-list.c string-list.c
$ perl -i -pe 's/has_path/has_string/g' $(git grep -l has_path)
$ perl -i -pe 's/path/string/g' string-list.[ch]
$ git mv Documentation/technical/api-path-list.txt \
Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt
$ perl -i -pe 's/strdup_paths/strdup_strings/g' $(git grep -l strdup_paths)
... and then fix all users of string-list to access the member "string"
instead of "path".
Documentation/technical/api-string-list.txt needed some rewrapping, too.

This patch moves rerere()-related functions into a newly created
rerere.c file.
The setup_rerere() function is needed by both rerere() and cmd_rerere(),
so this function is moved to rerere.c and declared non-static (and "extern")
in newly created rerere.h file.
