This moves the handling of max-count shorthand from the internal
implementation of "git log" to setup_revisions() so other users
of setup_revisions() can use it.

This ports the following options from rev-list based git-log
implementation:
* -<n>, -n<n>, and -n <n>. I am still wondering if we want
this natively supported by setup_revisions(), which already
takes --max-count. We may want to move them in the next
round. Also I am not sure if we can get away with not
setting revs->limited when we set max-count. The latest
rev-list.c and revision.c in this series do not, so I left
them as they are.
* --pretty and --pretty=<fmt>.
* --abbrev=<n> and --no-abbrev.
The previous commit already handles time-based limiters
(--since, --until and friends). The remaining things that
rev-list based git-log happens to do are not useful in a pure
log-viewing purposes, and not ported:
* --bisect (obviously).
* --header. I am actually in favor of doing the NUL
terminated record format, but rev-list based one always
passed --pretty, which defeated this option. Maybe next
round.
* --parents. I do not think of a reason a log viewer wants
this. The flag is primarily for feeding squashed history
via pipe to downstream tools.

This is what the previous diffs all built up to.
We can do "git log" as a trivial small helper function inside git.c,
because the infrastructure is all there for us to use as a library.

This is another patch in the "prepare to do more in C" series, where the
git wrapper command is taught about the notion of handling some
functionality internally.
Right now, the only internal commands are "version" and "help", but the
point being that we can now easily extend it to handle some of the trivial
scripts internally. Things like "git log" and "git diff" wouldn't need
separate external scripts any more.
This also implies that to support the old "git-log" and "git-diff" syntax,
the "git" wrapper now automatically looks at the name it was executed as,
and if it is "git-xxxx", it will assume that it is to internally do what
"git xxxx" would do.
In other words, you can (once you implement an internal command) soft- or
hard-link that command to the "git" wrapper command, and it will do the
right thing, whether you use the "git xxxx" or the "git-xxxx" format.
There's one other change: the search order for external programs is
modified slightly, so that the first entry remains GIT_EXEC_DIR, but the
second entry is the same directory as the git wrapper itself was executed
out of - if we can figure it out from argv[0], of course.

The git suite may not be in PATH (and thus programs such as
git-send-pack could not exec git-rev-list). Thus there is a need for
logic that will locate these programs. Modifying PATH is not
desirable as it result in behavior differing from the user's
intentions, as we may end up prepending "/usr/bin" to PATH.
- git C programs will use exec*_git_cmd() APIs to exec sub-commands.
- exec*_git_cmd() will execute a git program by searching for it in
the following directories:
1. --exec-path (as used by "git")
2. The GIT_EXEC_PATH environment variable.
3. $(gitexecdir) as set in Makefile (default value $(bindir)).
- git wrapper will modify PATH as before to enable shell scripts to
invoke "git-foo" commands.
Ideally, shell scripts should use the git wrapper to become independent
of PATH, and then modifying PATH will not be necessary.

This changes "pretty_print_string_list()" to show the git commands
alphabetically in column order, which is the normal one.
Ie instead of doing
git commands available in '/home/torvalds/bin'
----------------------------------------------
add am ...
applypatch archimport ...
cat-file check-ref-format ...
...
it does
git commands available in '/home/torvalds/bin'
----------------------------------------------
add diff-tree ...
am fetch ...
apply fetch-pack ...
...
where each column is sorted.
This is how "ls" sorts things too, and since visually the columns are much
more distinct than the rows, so it _looks_ more sorted.
The "ls" command has a "-x" option that lists entries by lines (the way
git.c used to): if somebody wants to do that, the new print-out logic
could be easily accomodated to that too. Matter of taste and preference, I
guess.

Currently the git "show commands" function will react to the environment
variable COLUMNS, or just default to a width of 80 characters.
That's just soo eighties. Nobody sane sets COLUMNS any more, unless they
need to support some stone-age software from before the age of steam
engines, SIGWINCH and TIOCGWINSZ.
So get with the new century, and use TIOCGWINSZ to get the terminal size.

This attempts to clean up the way various compatibility
functions are defined and used.
- A new header file, git-compat-util.h, is introduced. This
looks at various NO_XXX and does necessary function name
replacements, equivalent of -Dstrcasestr=gitstrcasestr in the
Makefile.
- Those function name replacements are removed from the Makefile.
- Common features such as usage(), die(), xmalloc() are moved
from cache.h to git-compat-util.h; cache.h includes
git-compat-util.h itself.

Also fix an incorrect attempt in prepend_to_path() to

copy the old_path string including the NUL which terminates it).

There is no setenv() in Solaris 5.8. The trivial calls to
setenv() were replaced by putenv() in a much earlier patch,
but setenv() was used again in git.c. This patch just adds
a compat/setenv.c.
The rule for building git$(X) also needs to include compat.

COMPAT_OBJS and COMPAT_CFLAGS.

Updates to fix the nits found during the list discussion.
- Lose PATH_TO_MAN; just rely on execlp() to find whereever the
"man" command is installed.
- Do not randomly chdir(), but concatenate to the current

- Lose use of glob(); read from exec_path and do sorting
ourselves -- it is not that much more work.

This patch provides a C implementation of the 'git' program and
introduces support for putting the git-* commands in a directory
of their own. It also saves some time on executing those commands
in a tight loop and it prints the currently available git commands
in a nicely formatted list.
The location of the GIT_EXEC_PATH (name discussion's closed, thank gods)
can be obtained by running
git --exec-path
which will hopefully give porcelainistas ample time to adapt their
heavy-duty loops to call the core programs directly and thus save
the extra fork() / execve() overhead, although that's not really
necessary any more.
The --exec-path value is prepended to $PATH, so the git-* programs
should Just Work without ever requiring any changes to how they call
other programs in the suite.
Some timing values for 10000 invocations of git-var >&/dev/null:
git.sh: 24.194s
git.c: 9.044s
git-var: 7.377s
The git-<tab><tab> behaviour can, along with the someday-to-be-deprecated
git-<command> form of invocation, be indefinitely retained by adding
the following line to one's .bash_profile or equivalent:
PATH=$PATH:$(git --exec-path)
Experimental libraries can be used by either setting the environment variable
GIT_EXEC_PATH, or by using
git --exec-path=/some/experimental/exec-path
Relative paths are properly grok'ed as exec-path values.
