When running "git commit -F file" and "git tag -F file" from a
subdirectory, we should take it as relative to the directory we started
from, not relative to the top-level directory.
This adds a helper function "parse_options_fix_filename()" to make it more
convenient to fix this class of issues. Ideally, parse_options() should
support a new type of option, "OPT_FILENAME", to do this uniformly, but
this patch is meant to go to 'maint' to fix it minimally.
One thing to note is that value for "commit template file" that comes from
the command line is taken as relative to $cwd just like other parameters,
but when it comes from the configuration varilable 'commit.template', it
is taken as relative to the working tree root as before. I think this
difference actually is sensible (not that I particularly think
commit.template itself is sensible).

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.

The rule is this: if the last line already contains the sign off by the
current committer, do nothing. If it contains another sign off, just
add the sign off of the current committer. If the last line does not
contain a sign off, add a new line before adding the sign off.

The Signed-off-by: line contained a spurious timestamp. The reason was
a call to git_committer_info(1), which automatically added the
timestamp.
Instead, fmt_ident() was taught to interpret an empty string for the
date (as opposed to NULL, which still triggers the default behavior)
as "do not bother with the timestamp", and builtin-commit.c uses it.

Currently, when committing, git-commit ignore the value of
GIT_INDEX_FILE, and always use $GIT_DIR/index. This patch
fix it.

This changes the interporate() to replace entries with NULL values
by the empty string, and uses it to interpolate missing fields in
custom format output used in git-log and friends. It is most useful
to avoid <unknown> output from %b format for a commit log message
that lack any body text.

These are useful in organizations that enforce particular formats
for commit messages, e.g., to specify bug IDs or test plans.
Use of the template is not enforced; it is simply used as the
initial content when the editor is invoked.
