There are four wildcard characters in p4. Files with these
characters can be added to p4 repos using the "-f" option. They
are stored in %xx notation, and when checked out, p4 converts
them back to normal.
When adding files with wildcards in git, the submit path must
be careful to use the encoded names in some places, and it
must use "-f" to add them. All other p4 commands that operate
on the client directory expect encoded filenames as arguments.
Support for wildcards in the clone/sync path was added in
084f630 (git-p4: decode p4 wildcard characters, 2011-02-19),
but that change did not handle the submit path.
There was a problem with wildcards in the sync path too. Commit
084f630 (git-p4: decode p4 wildcard characters, 2011-02-19)
handled files with p4 wildcards that were added or modified in
p4. Do this for deleted files, and also in branch detection
checks, too.

If P4EDITOR is defined, the tests will fail when "git p4" starts an
editor.

Drop the $GITP4 variable that was used to specify the script in
contrib/fast-import/. The command is called "git p4" now, not
"git-p4".
Note that configuration variables will remain in a section called
"git-p4".

This works in both bash and dash:
$ bash -c 'VAR=1 env' | grep VAR
VAR=1
$ dash -c 'VAR=1 env' | grep VAR
VAR=1
But environment variables assigned this way are not necessarily propagated
through a function in POSIX compliant shells:
$ bash -c 'f() { "$@"
}; VAR=1 f "env"' | grep VAR
VAR=1
$ dash -c 'f() { "$@"
}; VAR=1 f "env"' | grep VAR
Fix constructs like this, in particular, setting variables through
test_must_fail.

Document how git-p4 currently works when specifying multiple
depot paths:
1. No branches or directories are named.
2. Conflicting files are silently ignored---the last change
wins.
2. Option --destination is required, else the last path is construed
to be a directory.
3. Revision specifiers must be the same on all paths for them to
take effect.
Test this behavior.
