For too complicated output handling, it'd be easier to just spawn
git-column and redirect stdout to it. This patch provides helpers
to do that.

Normally all cells (and in turn columns) share the same width. This
layout mode can waste space because one long item can stretch our all
columns.
With COL_DENSE enabled, column width is calculated indepdendently. All
columns are shrunk to minimum, then it attempts to push cells of the
last row over to the next column with hope that everything still fits
even there's one row less. The process is repeated until the new layout
cannot fit in given width any more, or there's only one row left
(perfect!).
Apparently, this mode consumes more cpu than the old one, but it makes
better use of terminal space. For layouting one or two screens, cpu
usage should not be detectable.
This patch introduces option handling code besides layout modes and
enable/disable to expose this feature as "dense". The feature can be
turned off by specifying "nodense".

git-column can be used as a pager for other git commands, something
like this:
GIT_PAGER="git -p column --mode='dense color'" git -p branch
The problem with this is that "git -p column" also has $GIT_PAGER set so
the pager runs itself again as another pager. The end result is an
infinite loop of forking. Other git commands have the same problem if
being abused this way.
Check if $GIT_PAGER is already set and stop launching another pager.

mksh does not allow $COLUMNS to be set below 12. mksh(1) says that
$COLUMNS is "always set, defaults to 80, unless the value as reported
by stty(1) is non-zero and sane enough". This applies also to setting
it directly for one command:
$ COLUMNS=10 python -c 'import os; print os.environ["COLUMNS"]'
98
Add a test prerequisite by checking if we can set COLUMNS=1, to allow
us to skip tests that needs it.

A column option string consists of many token separated by either
a space or a comma. A token belongs to one of three groups:
- enabling: always, never and auto
- layout mode: currently plain (which does not layout at all)
- other future tuning flags
git-column can be used to pipe output to from a command that wants
column layout, but not to mess with its own output code. Simpler output
code can be changed to use column layout code directly.

The shell function that starts git-daemon wants to read the first line of
the daemon's stderr to ensure that it started correctly. Subsequent daemon
errors should be redirected to fd 4 (which is the terminal in verbose mode
or /dev/null in quiet mode). To that end the shell script used 'read' to
get the first line of output, and then 'cat &' to forward everything else
in a background process.
The problem is, that 'cat >&4 &' does not produce any output because the
shell redirects a background process's stdin to /dev/null. To have this
command invocation do anything useful, we have to redirect its stdin
explicitly (which overrides the /dev/null redirection).
The shell function connects the daemon's stderr to its consumers via a
FIFO. We cannot just do this:
read line <git_daemon_output
cat <git_daemon_output >&4 &
because after the first redirection the pipe is closed and the daemon
could receive SIGPIPE if it writes at the wrong moment. Therefore, we open
the readable end of the FIFO only once on fd 7 in the shell and dup from
there to the stdin of the two consumers.

In asciidoc 7, backticks like `foo` produced a typographic
effect, but did not otherwise affect the syntax. In asciidoc
8, backticks introduce an "inline literal" inside which markup
is not interpreted. To keep compatibility with existing
documents, asciidoc 8 has a "no-inline-literal" attribute to
keep the old behavior. We enabled this so that the
documentation could be built on either version.
It has been several years now, and asciidoc 7 is no longer
in wide use. We can now decide whether or not we want
inline literals on their own merits, which are:
1. The source is much easier to read when the literal
contains punctuation. You can use `master~1` instead
of `master{tilde}1`.
2. They are less error-prone. Because of point (1), we
tend to make mistakes and forget the extra layer of
quoting.
This patch removes the no-inline-literal attribute from the
Makefile and converts every use of backticks in the
documentation to an inline literal (they must be cleaned up,
or the example above would literally show "{tilde}" in the
output).
Problematic sites were found by grepping for '`.*[{\\]' and
examined and fixed manually. The results were then verified
by comparing the output of "html2text" on the set of
generated html pages. Doing so revealed that in addition to
making the source more readable, this patch fixes several
formatting bugs:
- HTML rendering used the ellipsis character instead of
literal "..." in code examples (like "git log A...B")
- some code examples used the right-arrow character
instead of '->' because they failed to quote
- api-config.txt did not quote tilde, and the resulting
HTML contained a bogus snippet like:
<tt><sub></tt> foo <tt></sub>bar</tt>
which caused some parsers to choke and omit whole
sections of the page.
- git-commit.txt confused ``foo`` (backticks inside a
literal) with ``foo'' (matched double-quotes)
- mentions of `A U Thor <author@example.com>` used to
erroneously auto-generate a mailto footnote for
author@example.com
- the description of --word-diff=plain incorrectly showed
the output as "[-removed-] and {added}", not "{+added+}".
- using "prime" notation like:
commit `C` and its replacement `C'`
confused asciidoc into thinking that everything between
the first backtick and the final apostrophe were meant
to be inside matched quotes
- asciidoc got confused by the escaping of some of our
asterisks. In particular,
`credential.\*` and `credential.<url>.\*`
properly escaped the asterisk in the first case, but
literally passed through the backslash in the second
case.

After running rev-list --boundary to retrieve the list of boundary
commits, "git bundle create" runs its own revision walk. If in this
stage git encounters an unfamiliar option, it writes a message with an
unbalanced quotation mark:
error: unrecognized argument: --foo'
Drop the stray quote to match the "unrecognized argument: %s" message
used elsewhere and save translators some work.
This is mostly a futureproofing measure: for now, the "rev-list
--boundary" command catches most strange arguments on its own and the
above message is not seen unless you try something esoteric like "git
bundle create test.bundle --header HEAD".

We used to underline a header text, like this:

But calculating text length so that the dashes align with the text
could get complicated because the text could be in any charset in
translated Git.
There is no point to use this pseudo underline; simply a blank
line would do and it even makes it easier to read:
This is a header
