980145f747 mergetools: add description to all diff/merge tools
The output of `git mergetool --tool-help` and `git difftool --tool-help`
only showed the `alias` of each available merge/diff tool.

It is not always obvious what tool these `aliases` end up using (ex:
`opendiff` runs `FileMerge` and `bc` runs `Beyond Compare`).

This commit adds a short description to each of them to help the user
identify the `alias` they want.

571f4348dd mergetools/xxdiff: prevent segfaults from stopping difftool
Users often use "git difftool HEAD^" to review their work, and have
"mergetool.prompt" set to false so that difftool does not prompt them
before diffing each file.

This is very convenient because users can see all their diffs by
reviewing the xxdiff windows one at a time.

A problem occurs when xxdiff encounters some binary files.
It can segfault and return exit code 128, which is special-cased
by git-difftool-helper as being an extraordinary situation that
aborts the process.

Suppress the exit code from xxdiff in its diff_cmd() implementation
when we see exit code 128 so that the GIT_EXTERNAL_DIFF loop continues
on uninterrupted to the next file rather than aborting when it
encounters the first binary file.

a3c988727d Merge branch 'da/mergetool-xxdiff-hotkey'
The way to specify hotkeys to "xxdiff" that is used by "git
mergetool" has been modernized to match recent versions of xxdiff.

6cf5f6cef7 mergetools: fix xxdiff hotkeys
xxdiff was using a mix of "Ctrl-<key>" and "Ctrl+<key>" hotkeys.
The dashed "-" form is not accepted by newer xxdiff versions.
Use the plus "+" form only.

7c10605d2c mergetool: honor mergetool.$tool.trustExitCode for built-in tools
Built-in merge tools contain a hard-coded assumption about
whether or not a tool's exit code can be trusted to determine
the success or failure of a merge.  Tools whose exit codes are
not trusted contain calls to check_unchanged() in their
merge_cmd() functions.

A problem with this is that the trustExitCode configuration is
not honored for built-in tools.

Teach built-in tools to honor the trustExitCode configuration.
Extend run_merge_cmd() so that it is responsible for calling
check_unchanged() when a tool's exit code cannot be trusted.
Remove check_unchanged() calls from scriptlets since they are no
longer responsible for calling it.

When no configuration is present, exit_code_trustable() is
checked to see whether the exit code should be trusted.
The default implementation returns false.

Tools whose exit codes can be trusted override
exit_code_trustable() to true.

bc7a96a896 mergetool--lib: Refactor tools into separate files
Individual merge tools are now defined in a mergetools/$tool
file which is sourced at runtime.

The individual files are installed into $(git --exec-path)/mergetools/.
New tools can be added by creating a new file instead of editing the
git-mergetool--lib.sh scriptlet.
