Locked paths can be saved in a linked list so that if something wrong
happens, *.lock are removed. For relative paths, this works fine if we
keep cwd the same, which is true 99% of time except:
- update-index and read-tree hold the lock on $GIT_DIR/index really
early, then later on may call setup_work_tree() to move cwd.
- Suppose a lock is being held (e.g. by "git add") then somewhere
down the line, somebody calls real_path (e.g. "link_alt_odb_entry"),
which temporarily moves cwd away and back.
During that time when cwd is moved (either permanently or temporarily)
and we decide to die(), attempts to remove relative *.lock will fail,
and the next operation will complain that some files are still locked.
Avoid this case by turning relative paths to absolute before storing
the path in "filename" field.

Running "git update-index --cacheinfo" without any further
arguments results in a segfault rather than an error
message. Commit ec160ae (update-index: teach --cacheinfo a
new syntax "mode,sha1,path", 2014-03-23) added code to
examine the format of the argument, but forgot to handle the
NULL case.
Returning an error from the parser is enough, since we then
treat it as an old-style "--cacheinfo <mode> <sha1> <path>",
and complain that we have less than 3 arguments to read.

The "--cacheinfo" option is unusual in that it takes three option
parameters. An option with an optional parameter is bad enough. An
option with multiple parameters is simply insane.
Introduce a new syntax that takes these three things concatenated
together with a comma, which makes the command line syntax more
uniform across subcommands, while retaining the traditional syntax
for backward compatiblity.
If we were designing the "update-index" subcommand from scratch
today, it may probably have made sense to make this option (and
possibly others) a command mode option that does not take any option
parameter (hence no need for arg-help). But we do not live in such
an ideal world, and as far as I can tell, the command still supports
(and must support) mixed command modes in a single invocation, e.g.
$ git update-index path1 --add path2 \
--cacheinfo 100644 $(git hash-object --stdin -w <path3) path3 \
path4
must make sure path1 is already in the index and update all of these
four paths. So this is probably as far as we can go to fix this issue
without risking to break people's existing scripts.

We should never need to write the null sha1 into an index
entry (short of the 1 in 2^160 chance that somebody actually
has content that hashes to it). If we attempt to do so, it
is much more likely that it is a bug, since we use the null
sha1 as a sentinel value to mean "not valid".
The presence of null sha1s in the index (which can come
from, among other things, "update-index --cacheinfo", or by
reading a corrupted tree) can cause problems for later
readers, because they cannot distinguish the literal null
sha1 from its use a sentinel value. For example, "git
diff-files" on such an entry would make it appear as if it
is stat-dirty, and until recently, the diff code assumed
such an entry meant that we should be diffing a working tree
file rather than a blob.
Ideally, we would stop such entries from entering even our
in-core index. However, we do sometimes legitimately add
entries with null sha1s in order to represent these sentinel
situations; simply forbidding them in add_index_entry breaks
a lot of the existing code. However, we can at least make
sure that our in-core sentinel representation never makes it
to disk.
To be thorough, we will test an attempt to add both a blob
and a submodule entry. In the former case, we might run into
problems anyway because we will be missing the blob object.
But in the latter case, we do not enforce connectivity
across gitlink entries, making this our only point of
enforcement. The current implementation does not care which
type of entry we are seeing, but testing both cases helps
future-proof the test suite in case that changes.

When trying to fix up a corrupt repository, one might prefer that
"update-index -h" print an accurate usage message and exit rather
than reading the repository and complaining about the corruption.
