Fix an erroneously copy/pasted check for the pcre2_jit_stack variable
to check pcre2_match_context instead. The former was already checked
in the preceding "if" statement.
This is a trivial and obvious error introduced in my commit
94da9193a6 ("grep: add support for PCRE v2", 2017-06-01).
In practice if pcre2_match_context_create() returned NULL we were
likely in a situation where malloc() was returning NULL, and were thus
screwed anyway, but if only the pcre2_match_context_create() call
returned NULL (through some transitory bug) PCRE v2 would just
allocate and supply its own context object when matching, and we'd run
normally at the trivial expense of not getting a slight speedup by
sharing the context object between successive matches.

The convention for a command line is to follow "git cmdname
--options" with revisions followed by an optional "--"
disambiguator and then finally pathspecs. When "--" is not there,
we make sure early ones are all interpretable as revs (and do not
look like paths) and later ones are the other way around. A
pathspec with "magic" (e.g. ":/p/a/t/h" that matches p/a/t/h from
the top-level of the working tree, no matter what subdirectory you
are working from) are conservatively judged as "not a path", which
required disambiguation more often. The command line parser
learned to say "it's a pathspec" a bit more often when the syntax
looks like so.

The macOS X fork of Meld[1] requires a "=" in the "--output"
argument, as it uses a wrapper[2] script that munges the
"--output" argument before calling into the common "meld"
script.
The macOS X wrapper script[2] accepts "--output=<filename>"
only, despite the fact that the underlying meld code accepts
both "--output <filename" and "--output=<filename>"[3].
All versions of meld which accept "--output" accept it in
the "--output=<filename>" form, so use "--output=<file>" for
maximum compatibility.

Replace occurrences of `free(ptr); ptr = NULL` which weren't caught by
the coccinelle rule. These fall into two categories:
- free/NULL assignments one after the other which coccinelle all put
on one line, which is functionally equivalent code, but very ugly.
- manually spotted occurrences where the NULL assignment isn't right

Add a FREE_AND_NULL() wrapper marco for the common pattern of freeing
a pointer and assigning NULL to it right afterwards.
The implementation is similar to the (currently unused) XDL_PTRFREE
macro in xdiff/xmacros.h added in commit 3443546f6e ("Use a *real*
built-in diff generator", 2006-03-24). The only difference is that
free() is called unconditionally, see [1].
See [2] for a suggested alternative which does this via a function
instead of a macro. As covered in replies to that message, while it's
a viable approach, it would introduce caveats which this approach
doesn't have, so that potential change is left to a future follow-up
change.
This merely allows us to translate exactly what we're doing now to a
less verbose & idiomatic form using a macro, while guaranteeing that
we don't introduce any functional changes.

When we convert seconds-since-epochs timestamps into a
broken-down "struct tm", we do so by adjusting the timestamp
according to the known offset and then using gmtime() to
break down the result. This means that the resulting struct
"knows" that it's in GMT, even though the time it represents
is adjusted for a different zone. The fields where it stores
this data are not portably accessible, so we have no way to
override them to tell them the real zone info.
For the most part, this works. Our date-formatting routines
don't pay attention to these inaccessible fields, and use
the same tz info we provided for adjustment. The one
exception is when we call strftime(), whose %Z format
reveals this hidden timezone data.
We solved that by always showing the empty string for %Z.
This is allowed by POSIX, but not very helpful to the user.
We can't make this work in the general case, as there's no
portable function for setting an arbitrary timezone (and
anyway, we don't have the zone name for the author zones,
only their offsets).
But for the special case of the "-local" formats, we can
just skip the adjustment and use localtime() instead of
gmtime(). This makes --date=format-local:%Z work correctly,
showing the local timezone instead of an empty string.
The new test checks the result for "UTC", our default
test-lib value for $TZ. Using something like EST5 might be
more interesting, but the actual zone string is
system-dependent (for instance, on my system it expands to
just EST). Hopefully "UTC" is vanilla enough that every
system treats it the same.

We already test that "%z" and "%Z" show the right thing, but
we don't actually check that the time we display is the
correct one. Let's add two new tests:
1. Test that "format:" shows the time in the author's
timezone, just like the other time formats.
2. Test that "format-local:" shows time in the local
timezone. We don't want to use our normal UTC for this,
because its offset is zero (so the result would be
"correct" even if the code forgot to apply the offset
or applied it in the wrong direction).
We'll use the EST5 zone, which is already used
elsewhere in the script (and so is assumed to be
available everywhere).

There is no portable way to pass timezone information to strftime. Add
parameters for timezone offset and name to strbuf_addftime and let it
handle the timezone-related format specifiers %z and %Z internally.
Callers can opt out for %Z by passing NULL as timezone name. %z is
always handled internally -- this helps on Windows, where strftime would
expand it to a timezone name (same as %Z), in violation of POSIX.
Modifiers are not handled, e.g. %Ez is still passed to strftime.
Use an empty string as timezone name in show_date (the only current
caller) for now because we only have the timezone offset in non-local
mode. POSIX allows %Z to resolve to an empty string in case of missing
information.

We added an FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES Makefile knob long ago
in cba22528f (Add compat/fopen.c which returns NULL on
attempt to open directory, 2008-02-08) to handle systems
where reading from a directory returned garbage. This works
by catching the problem at the fopen() stage and returning
NULL.
More recently, we found that there is a class of systems
(including Linux) where fopen() succeeds but fread() fails.
Since the solution is the same (having fopen return NULL),
they use the same Makefile knob as of e2d90fd1c
(config.mak.uname: set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES for Linux and
FreeBSD, 2017-05-03).
This works fine except for one thing: the autoconf test in
configure.ac to set FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES actually checks
whether fread succeeds. Which means that on Linux systems,
the knob isn't set (and we even override the config.mak.uname
default). t1308 catches the failure.
We can fix this by tweaking the autoconf test to cover both
cases. In theory we might care about the distinction between
the traditional "fread reads directories" case and the new
"fopen opens directories". But since our solution catches
the problem at the fopen stage either way, we don't actually
need to know the difference. The "fopen" case is a superset.
This does mean the FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES name is slightly
misleading. Probably FOPEN_OPENS_DIRECTORIES would be more
accurate. But it would be disruptive to simply change the
name (people's existing build configs would fail), and it's
not worth the complexity of handling both. Let's just add a
comment in the knob description.
