Teach mergetool to write files in a temporary directory when
'mergetool.writeToTemp' is true.
This is helpful for tools such as Eclipse which cannot cope with
multiple copies of the same file in the worktree.

Older versions of meld listed --output in `meld --help`.
Newer versions only mention `meld [OPTIONS...]`.
Improve the checks to catch these newer versions.
Add a `mergetool.meld.hasOutput` configuration to allow

The "Everyday GIT With 20 Commands Or So" is not accessible via the
Git help system. Move everyday.txt to giteveryday.txt so that "git
help everyday" works, and create a new placeholder file everyday.html

Neither the AsciiDoc nor the Asciidoctor documentation specify whether
the same number of delimiter characters must be used to end a block as
to begin it, although both sets of documentation show exactly matching
pairs. AsciiDoc allows mismatches, but AsciiDoctor apparently does not.
Adjust the pretty formats documentation to use matching pairs to prevent
a misrendering where the remainder of the document was rendered as a
listing block.

Add a new function, fdopen_lock_file(), which returns a FILE pointer
open to the lockfile. If a stream is open on a lock_file object, it is
closed using fclose() on commit, rollback, or close_lock_file().
This change will allow callers to use stdio to write to a lockfile
without having to muck around in the internal representation of the
lock_file object (callers will be rewritten in upcoming commits).

commit_locked_index(), when writing to an alternate index file,
duplicates (poorly) the code in commit_lock_file(). And anyway, it
shouldn't have to know so much about the internal workings of lockfile
objects. So extract a new function commit_lock_file_to() that does the
work common to the two functions, and call it from both
commit_lock_file() and commit_locked_index().

* Document the behavior of commit_lock_file() when it fails, namely
that it rolls back the lock_file object and sets errno
appropriately.

namely that it is a NOOP.

If closing an open lockfile fails, then we cannot be sure of the
contents of the lockfile, so there is nothing sensible to do but
delete it. This change also insures that the lock_file object is left
in a defined state in this error path (namely, unlocked).
The only caller that is ultimately affected by this change is
try_merge_strategy() -> write_locked_index(), which can call
close_lock_file() via various execution paths. This caller uses a
static lock_file object which previously could have been reused after
a failed close_lock_file() even though it was still in locked state.
This change causes the lock_file object to be unlocked on failure,
thus fixing this error-handling path.

It was previously a bug to call commit_lock_file() with a lock_file
object that was not active (an illegal access would happen within the
function). It was presumably never done, but this would be an easy
programming error to overlook. So before continuing, do a consistency
check that the lock_file object really is locked.

Running "git rebase" without giving a specific commit with respect
to which the operation is done enables --fork-point mode, while
telling the command to rebase with respect to a specific commit,
i.e. "git rebase <upstream>" does not.
This was not mentioned in the DESCRIPTION section of the manual
page, even though the case of omitted <upstream> was otherwise
discussed. That in turn made actual behavior of vanilla "git
rebase" hardly discoverable.
While we are at it, clarify the --fork-point description itself as
well.
