The "git pull --rebase" command computes the fork point of the
branch being rebased using the reflog entries of the "base" branch
(typically a remote-tracking branch) the branch's work was based on,
in order to cope with the case in which the "base" branch has been
rewound and rebuilt. For example, if the history looked like this:
o---B1
/
---o---o---B2--o---o---o---Base
\
B3
\
Derived
where the current tip of the "base" branch is at Base, but earlier
fetch observed that its tip used to be B3 and then B2 and then B1
before getting to the current commit, and the branch being rebased
on top of the latest "base" is based on commit B3, it tries to find
B3 by going through the output of "git rev-list --reflog base" (i.e.
Base, B1, B2, B3) until it finds a commit that is an ancestor of the
current tip "Derived".
Internally, we have get_merge_bases_many() that can compute this
with one-go. We would want a merge-base between Derived and a
fictitious merge commit that would result by merging all the
historical tips of "base". When such a commit exist, we should get
a single result, which exactly match one of the reflog entries of
"base".
Teach "git merge-base" a new mode, "--fork-point", to compute
exactly that.

The --octopus, --independent and --is-ancestor are mutually
exclusive command modes (in addition to not giving any of these
options), so represent them as such using the recent OPT_CMDMODE
facility available since 11588263 (parse-options: add OPT_CMDMODE(),
2013-07-30), which is in v1.8.4-82-g366b80b. --all is compatible
only with plain vanilla mode and --octopus mode, and the minimum
number of arguments the command takes depends on the command modes,
so these are now separately checked in each command mode.

This task emerged from b04ba2bb (parse-options: deprecate OPT_BOOLEAN,
2011-09-27). All occurrences of the respective variables have
been reviewed and none of them relied on the counting up mechanism,
but all of them were using the variable as a true boolean.
This patch does not change semantics of any command intentionally.

As of b04ba2bb4 OPTION_BOOLEAN was deprecated.
This commit removes all occurrences of OPTION_BOOLEAN.
In b04ba2bb4 Junio suggested to replace it with either
OPTION_SET_INT or OPTION_COUNTUP instead. However a pattern, which
occurred often with the OPTION_BOOLEAN was a hidden boolean parameter.
So I defined OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL as an additional possible parse option
in parse-options.h to make life easy.
The OPT_HIDDEN_BOOL was used in checkout, clone, commit, show-ref.
The only exception, where there was need to fiddle with OPTION_SET_INT
was log and notes. However in these two files there is also a pattern,
so we could think of introducing OPT_NONEG_BOOL.

range-set invariants are: ranges must be (1) non-empty, (2) disjoint,
(3) sorted in ascending order.
line_log_data_insert() breaks the non-empty invariant under the
following conditions: the incoming range is empty and the pathname
attached to the range has not yet been encountered. In this case,
line_log_data_insert() assigns the empty range to a new line_log_data
record without taking any action to ensure that the empty range is
eventually folded out. Subsequent range-set functions crash or throw an
assertion failure upon encountering such an anomaly. Fix this bug.

range-set invariants are: ranges must be (1) non-empty, (2) disjoint,
(3) sorted in ascending order.
During processing, various range-set utility functions break the
invariants (for instance, by adding empty ranges), with the
expectation that a finalizing sort_and_merge_range_set() will restore
sanity.
sort_and_merge_range_set(), however, neglects to fold out empty
ranges, thus it fails to satisfy the non-empty constraint. Subsequent
range-set functions crash or throw an assertion failure upon
encountering such an anomaly. Rectify the situation by having
sort_and_merge_range_set() fold out empty ranges.

'st' is allocated via xmalloc a few lines before and passed to
the stream opening functions.
The xmalloc function is written in a way that either 'st' is allocated
valid memory or xmalloc already dies.
The function calls to open_istream_* do not change 'st', as the pointer is
passed by reference and not a pointer of a pointer.
Hence 'st' cannot be null at that part of the code.
