I'm seeing a lot of silent failures from git-update-index on
Windows and this is leaving the index.lock file intact, which
means users are later unable to perform additional operations.
When the index is locked behind our back and we are unable to
use it we may need to allow the user to delete the index lock
and try again. However our UI state is probably not currect
as we have assumed that some changes were applied but none of
them actually did. A rescan is the easiest (in code anyway)
solution to correct our UI to show what the index really has
(or doesn't have).

If we are updating the index to stage or unstage changes or reverting
files in the working directory we can use the progress handling parts
of our status bar to perform this display work, reducing the amount of
code duplication we have in the index handling module.
Unfortunately the status bar is still a strict approximation as it is
unable to know when git-update-index has processed the data we fed to
it. The progress bar is actually a progress of the pipe buffer filling
up in the OS, not of the actual work done. Still, it tells the user we
are working and that has some value.

Most of these changes were suggested by Shawn Pearce in an answer
to Johannes Schindelin.
Some strings for the blame module were added too.

* maint:
git-gui: Paper bag fix "Commit->Revert" format arguments
git-gui: Provide 'uninstall' Makefile target to undo an installation
git-gui: Font chooser to handle a large number of font families
The recent bug fix to correctly handle filenames with %s (or any
other valid Tcl format specifier) missed a \ on this line and
caused the remaining format arguments to not be supplied when we
updated the status bar. This caused a Tcl error anytime the user
was trying to perform a file revert.

* maint:
git-gui: Avoid use of libdir in Makefile
git-gui: Disable Tk send in all git-gui sessions
git-gui: lib/index.tcl: handle files with % in the filename properly
Steps to reproduce the bug:
$ mkdir repo && cd repo && git init
Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
$ touch 'foo%3Fsuite'
$ git-gui
Then click on the 'foo%3Fsuite' icon to include it in a changeset, a
popup comes with:
'Error: bad field specifier "F"'

The procedure [mc ...] will translate the strings through msgcat.
Strings must be enclosed in quotes, not in braces, because otherwise
xgettext cannot extract them properly, although on the Tcl side both
delimiters would work fine.

Also, the warning message when clicking "Reset" is adapted to
the wording "Reset" rather than a confusion "Cancel commit?".

Rather than making the C library search for git every time we want
to execute it we now search for the main git wrapper at startup, do
symlink resolution, and then always use the absolute path that we
found to execute the binary later on. This should save us some
cycles, especially on stat challenged systems like Cygwin/Win32.
While I was working on this change I also converted all of our
existing pipes ([open "| git ..."]) to use two new pipe wrapper
functions. These functions take additional options like --nice
and --stderr which instructs Tcl to take special action, like
running the underlying git program through `nice` (if available)
or redirect stderr to stdout for capture in Tcl.

I'm really starting to dislike global variables. The ui_status_value
global varible is just one of those that seems to appear in a lot of
code and in many cases we didn't even declare it "global" within the
proc that updates it so we haven't always been getting all of the
updates we expected to see.
This change introduces two new global procs:
ui_status $msg; # Sets the status bar to show $msg.
ui_ready; # Changes the status bar to show "Ready."
The second (special) form is used because we often update the area
with this message once we are done processing a block of work and
want the user to know we have completed it.
I'm not fixing the cases that appear in lib/branch.tcl right now
as I'm actually in the middle of a huge refactoring of that code
to support making a detached HEAD checkout.

I'm finding it difficult to work with a 6,000+ line Tcl script
and not go insane while looking for a particular block of code.
Since most of the program is organized into different units of
functionality and not all users will need all units immediately
on startup we can improve things by splitting procs out into
multiple files and let auto_load handle things for us.
This should help not only to better organize the source, but
it may also improve startup times for some users as the Tcl
parser does not need to read as much script before it can show
the UI. In many cases the user can avoid reading at least half
of git-gui now.
Unfortunately we now need a library directory in our runtime
location. This is currently assumed to be $(sharedir)/git-gui/lib
and its expected that the Makefile invoker will setup some sort of
reasonable sharedir value for us, or let us assume its going to be
$(gitexecdir)/../share.
We now also require a tclsh (in TCL_PATH) to just run the Makefile,
as we use tclsh to generate the tclIndex for our lib directory. I'm
hoping this is not an unncessary burden on end-users who are building
from source.
I haven't really made any functionality changes here, this is just a
huge migration of code from one file to many smaller files. All of
the new changes are to setup the library path and install the library
files.
