Theodore Ts'o 06f59e9f5d Don't fflush(stdout) when it's not helpful
This patch arose from a discussion started by Jim Meyering's patch
whose intention was to provide better diagnostics for failed writes.
Linus proposed a better way to do things, which also had the added
benefit that adding a fflush() to git-log-* operations and incremental
git-blame operations could improve interactive respose time feel, at
the cost of making things a bit slower when we aren't piping the
output to a downstream program.

This patch skips the fflush() calls when stdout is a regular file, or
if the environment variable GIT_FLUSH is set to "0".  This latter can
speed up a command such as:

GIT_FLUSH=0 strace -c -f -e write time git-rev-list HEAD | wc -l

a tiny amount.

/*
* Some cases use stdio, but want to flush after the write
* to get error handling (and to get better interactive
* behaviour - not buffering excessively).
*
* Of course, if the flush happened within the write itself,
* we've already lost the error code, and cannot report it any
* more. So we just ignore that case instead (and hope we get
* the right error code on the flush).
*
* If the file handle is stdout, and stdout is a file, then skip the
* flush entirely since it's not needed.
