mergetool: fallback to tool when guitool unavailable

t7610: unsuppress output
In git-difftool.txt, it says
'git difftool' falls back to 'git mergetool' config variables when the
difftool equivalents have not been defined.
However, when `diff.guitool` is missing, it doesn't fallback to
anything. Make git-difftool fallback to `merge.guitool` when `diff.guitool` is
missing.

In `--no-index` mode, we now no longer require a worktree nor a
repository. But some code paths in `difftool` expect those to be
present.
The most notable such code path is the `--dir-diff` one: we use the
existing checkout machinery to copy the files, and that machinery looks
up replacement refs, looks at alternate ODBs, wants to use the worktree
path, etc.
Rather than running into segmentation faults, let's die with an
informative error message.

As far as this developer can tell, the conversion from a Perl script to
a built-in caused the regression in the difftool that it no longer runs
outside of a Git worktree (with `--no-index`, of course).
It is a bit embarrassing that it took over two years after retiring the
Perl version to discover this regression, but at least we now know, and
can do something, about it.

One of the problems with "git checkout" is that it does so many
different things and could confuse people specially when we fail to
handle ambiguation correctly.
One way to help with that is tell the user what sort of operation is
actually carried out. When switching branches, we always print
something unless --quiet, either
- "HEAD is now at ..."
- "Reset branch ..."
- "Already on ..."
- "Switched to and reset ..."
- "Switched to a new branch ..."
- "Switched to branch ..."
Checking out paths however is silent. Print something so that if we
got the user intention wrong, they won't waste too much time to find
that out. For the remaining cases of checkout we now print either
- "Checked out ... paths out of the index"
- "Checked out ... paths out of <abbrev hash>"
Since the purpose of printing this is to help disambiguate. Only do it
when "--" is missing.

Using the more restrictive oideq() should, in the long run,
give the compiler more opportunities to optimize these
callsites. For now, this conversion should be a complete
noop with respect to the generated code.
The result is also perhaps a little more readable, as it
avoids the "zero is equal" idiom. Since it's so prevalent in
C, I think seasoned programmers tend not to even notice it
anymore, but it can sometimes make for awkward double
negations (e.g., we can drop a few !!oidcmp() instances
here).
This patch was generated almost entirely by the included
coccinelle patch. This mechanical conversion should be
completely safe, because we check explicitly for cases where
oidcmp() is compared to 0, which is what oideq() is doing
under the hood. Note that we don't have to catch "!oidcmp()"
separately; coccinelle's standard isomorphisms make sure the
two are treated equivalently.
I say "almost" because I did hand-edit the coccinelle output
to fix up a few style violations (it mostly keeps the
original formatting, but sometimes unwraps long lines).

It has been observed that the time spent loading an index with a large
number of entries is partly dominated by malloc() calls. This change
is in preparation for using memory pools to reduce the number of
malloc() calls made to allocate cahce entries when loading an index.
Add an API to allocate and discard cache entries, abstracting the
details of managing the memory backing the cache entries. This commit
does actually change how memory is managed - this will be done in a
later commit in the series.
This change makes the distinction between cache entries that are
associated with an index and cache entries that are not associated with
an index. A main use of cache entries is with an index, and we can
optimize the memory management around this. We still have other cases
where a cache entry is not persisted with an index, and so we need to
handle the "transient" use case as well.
To keep the congnitive overhead of managing the cache entries, there
will only be a single discard function. This means there must be enough
information kept with the cache entry so that we know how to discard
them.
A summary of the main functions in the API is:
make_cache_entry: create cache entry for use in an index. Uses specified
parameters to populate cache_entry fields.
make_empty_cache_entry: Create an empty cache entry for use in an index.
Returns cache entry with empty fields.
make_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in an
index. Uses specified parameters to populate
cache_entry fields.
make_empty_transient_cache_entry: create cache entry that is not used in
an index. Returns cache entry with
empty fields.
discard_cache_entry: A single function that knows how to discard a cache
entry regardless of how it was allocated.

In particular, this moves:

As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to

Placing `struct lock_file`s on the stack used to be a bad idea, because
the temp- and lockfile-machinery would keep a pointer into the struct.
But after 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05), we can safely have lockfiles on the stack. (This applies
even if a user returns early, leaving a locked lock behind.)
These `struct lock_file`s are local to their respective functions and we
can drop their staticness.
For good measure, I have inspected these sites and come to believe that
they always release the lock, with the possible exception of bailing out
using `die()` or `exit()` or by returning from a `cmd_foo()`.
As pointed out by Jeff King, it would be bad if someone held on to a
`struct lock_file *` for some reason. After some grepping, I agree with
his findings: no-one appears to be doing that.

If the original version of `write_locked_index()` returned with an
error, it didn't roll back the lockfile unless the error occured at the
very end, during closing/committing. See commit 03b866477 (read-cache:
new API write_locked_index instead of write_index/write_cache,
2014-06-13).
In commit 9f41c7a6b (read-cache: close index.lock in do_write_index,
2017-04-26), we learned to close the lock slightly earlier in the
callstack. That was mostly a side-effect of lockfiles being implemented
using temporary files, but didn't cause any real harm.
Recently, commit 076aa2cbd (tempfile: auto-allocate tempfiles on heap,
2017-09-05) introduced a subtle bug. If the temporary file is deleted
(i.e., the lockfile is rolled back), the tempfile-pointer in the `struct
lock_file` will be left dangling. Thus, an attempt to reuse the
lockfile, or even just to roll it back, will induce undefined behavior
-- most likely a crash.
Besides not crashing, we clearly want to make things consistent. The
guarantees which the lockfile-machinery itself provides is A) if we ask
to commit and it fails, roll back, and B) if we ask to close and it
fails, do _not_ roll back. Let's do the same for consistency.
Do not delete the temporary file in `do_write_index()`. One of its
callers, `write_locked_index()` will thereby avoid rolling back the
lock. The other caller, `write_shared_index()`, will delete its
temporary file anyway. Both of these callers will avoid undefined
behavior (crashing).
Teach `write_locked_index(..., COMMIT_LOCK)` to roll back the lock
before returning. If we have already succeeded and committed, it will be
a noop. Simplify the existing callers where we now have a superfluous
call to `rollback_lockfile()`. That should keep future readers from
wondering why the callers are inconsistent.

When using the hashmap a common need is to have access to caller provided
data in the compare function. A couple of times we abuse the keydata field
to pass in the data needed. This happens for example in patch-ids.c.
This patch changes the function signature of the compare function
to have one more void pointer available. The pointer given for each
invocation of the compare function must be defined in the init function
of the hashmap and is just passed through.
Documentation of this new feature is deferred to a later patch.
This is a rather mechanical conversion, just adding the new pass-through
parameter. However while at it improve the naming of the fields of all
compare functions used by hashmaps by ensuring unused parameters are
prefixed with 'unused_' and naming the parameters what they are (instead
of 'unused' make it 'unused_keydata').

The left and right base directories were pointed to the buf field of
two strbufs, which were subject to change.
A contrived test case shows the problem where a file with a long enough
name to force the strbuf to grow is up-to-date (hence the code path is
used where the work tree's version of the file is reused), and then a
file that is not up-to-date needs to be written (hence the code path is
used where checkout_entry() uses the previously recorded base_dir that
is invalid by now).
Let's just copy the base_dir strings for use with checkout_entry(),
never touch them until the end, and release them then. This is an easily
verifiable fix (as opposed to the next-obvious alternative: to re-set
base_dir after every loop iteration).

In order to checkout files, difftool reads "diff --raw"
output and feeds the names to checkout_entry(). That
function requires us to have a "struct cache_entry". And
because that struct uses a FLEX_ARRAY for the name field, we
have to actually copy in our new name.
The current code allocates a single re-usable cache_entry
that can hold a name up to PATH_MAX, and then copies
filenames into it using strcpy(). But there's no guarantee
that incoming names are smaller than PATH_MAX. They've come
from "diff --raw" output which might be diffing between two
trees (and hence we'd be subject to the PATH_MAX of some
other system, or even none at all if they were created
directly via "update-index").
We can fix this by using make_cache_entry() to create a
correctly-sized cache_entry for each name. This incurs an
extra allocation per file, but this is negligible compared
to actually writing out the file contents.
To make this simpler, we can push this procedure into a new
helper function. Note that we can also get rid of the "len"
variables for src_path and dst_path (and in fact we must, as
the compiler complains that they are unused).

This patch gives life to the skeleton added in the previous patch.
The motivation for converting the difftool is that Perl scripts are not at
all native on Windows, and that `git difftool` therefore is pretty slow on
that platform, when there is no good reason for it to be slow.
In addition, Perl does not really have access to Git's internals. That
means that any script will always have to jump through unnecessary
hoops, and it will often need to perform unnecessary work (e.g. when
reading the entire config every time `git config` is called to query a
single config value).
The current version of the builtin difftool does not, however, make full
use of the internals but instead chooses to spawn a couple of Git
processes, still, to make for an easier conversion. There remains a lot
of room for improvement, left later.
Note: to play it safe, the original difftool is still called unless the
config setting difftool.useBuiltin is set to true.
The reason: this new, experimental, builtin difftool was shipped as part
of Git for Windows v2.11.0, to allow for easier large-scale testing, but
of course as an opt-in feature.
The speedup is actually more noticable on Linux than on Windows: a quick
test shows that t7800-difftool.sh runs in (2.183s/0.052s/0.108s)
(real/user/sys) in a Linux VM, down from (6.529s/3.112s/0.644s), while on
Windows, it is (36.064s/2.730s/7.194s), down from (47.637s/2.407s/6.863s).
The culprit is most likely the overhead incurred from *still* having to
shell out to mergetool-lib.sh and difftool--helper.sh.
Still, it is an improvement.
