c73b7ad548 win32: replace pthread_cond_*() with much simpler code
The Win32 CONDITION_VARIABLE has better performance and is easier to
maintain, as the code is a lot shorter now (the semantics of the
CONDITION_VARIABLE matches the pthread_cond_t very well).

Note: CONDITION_VARIABLE is not available in Windows XP and below,
but the declared minimal Windows version required to build and run
Git for Windows is Windows Vista (which is also beyond its
end-of-life, but for less long than Windows XP), so that's okay.

e8dfcace31 poll: use GetTickCount64() to avoid wrap-around issues
The value of timeout starts as an int value, and for this reason it
cannot overflow unsigned long long aka ULONGLONG. The unsigned version
of this initial value is available in orig_timeout. The difference
(orig_timeout - elapsed) cannot wrap around because it is protected by
a conditional (as can be seen in the patch text). Hence, the ULONGLONG
difference can only have values that are smaller than the initial
timeout value and truncation to int cannot overflow.

ff8978d533 mingw: fix isatty() after dup2()
Since a9b8a09c3c (mingw: replace isatty() hack, 2016-12-22), we handle
isatty() by special-casing the stdin/stdout/stderr file descriptors,
caching the return value. However, we missed the case where dup2()
overrides the respective file descriptor.

That poses a problem e.g. where the `show` builtin asks for a pager very
early, the `setup_pager()` function sets the pager depending on the
return value of `isatty()` and then redirects stdout. Subsequently,
`cmd_log_init_finish()` calls `setup_pager()` *again*. What should
happen now is that `isatty()` reports that stdout is *not* a TTY and
consequently stdout should be left alone.

Let's override dup2() to handle this appropriately.

This fixes https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1077

0e218f91c2 mingw: unset PERL5LIB by default
Git for Windows ships with its own Perl interpreter, and insists on
using it, so it will most likely wreak havoc if PERL5LIB is set before
launching Git.

Let's just unset that environment variables when spawning processes.

To make this feature extensible (and overrideable), there is a new
config setting `core.unsetenvvars` that allows specifying a
comma-separated list of names to unset before spawning processes.

70fc5793df config: allow for platform-specific core.* config settings
In the Git for Windows project, we have ample precendent for config
settings that apply to Windows, and to Windows only.

Let's formalize this concept by introducing a platform_core_config()
function that can be #define'd in a platform-specific manner.

This will allow us to contain platform-specific code better, as the
corresponding variables no longer need to be exported so that they can
be defined in environment.c and be set in config.c

fe21c6b285 mingw: reencode environment variables on the fly (UTF-16 <-> UTF-8)
On Windows, the authoritative environment is encoded in UTF-16. In Git
for Windows, we convert that to UTF-8 (because UTF-16 is *such* a
foreign idea to Git that its source code is unprepared for it).

Previously, out of performance concerns, we converted the entire
environment to UTF-8 in one fell swoop at the beginning, and upon
putenv() and run_command() converted it back.

Having a private copy of the environment comes with its own perils: when
a library used by Git's source code tries to modify the environment, it
does not really work (in Git for Windows' case, libcurl, see
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/compare/bcad1e6d58^...bcad1e6d58^2
for a glimpse of the issues).

Hence, it makes our environment handling substantially more robust if we
switch to on-the-fly-conversion in `getenv()`/`putenv()` calls. Based
on an initial version in the MSVC context by Jeff Hostetler, this patch
makes it so.

Surprisingly, this has a *positive* effect on speed: at the time when
the current code was written, we tested the performance, and there were
*so many* `getenv()` calls that it seemed better to convert everything
in one go. In the meantime, though, Git has obviously been cleaned up a
bit with regards to `getenv()` calls so that the Git processes spawned
by the test suite use an average of only 40 `getenv()`/`putenv()` calls
over the process lifetime.

Speaking of the entire test suite: the total time spent in the
re-encoding in the current code takes about 32.4 seconds (out of 113
minutes runtime), whereas the code introduced in this patch takes only
about 8.2 seconds in total. Not much, but it proves that we need not be
concerned about the performance impact introduced by this patch.

4745feeb8b mingw: fix getcwd when the parent directory cannot be queried
`GetLongPathName()` function may fail when it is unable to query
the parent directory of a path component to determine the long name
for that component. It happens, because it uses `FindFirstFile()`
function for each next short part of path. The `FindFirstFile()`
requires `List Directory` and `Synchronize` desired access for a calling
process.

In case of lacking such permission for some part of path,
the `GetLongPathName()` returns 0 as result and `GetLastError()`
returns ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED.

`GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function can help in such cases, because
it requires `Read Attributes` and `Synchronize` desired access to the
target path only.

The `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function was introduced on
`Windows Server 2008/Windows Vista`. So we need to load it dynamically.

`CreateFile()` parameters:
    `lpFileName` = path to the current directory
    `dwDesiredAccess` = 0 (it means `Read Attributes` and `Synchronize`)
    `dwShareMode` = FILE_SHARE_READ | FILE_SHARE_WRITE | FILE_SHARE_DELETE
                    (it prevents `Sharing Violation`)
    `lpSecurityAttributes` = NULL (default security attributes)
    `dwCreationDisposition` = OPEN_EXISTING
                              (required to obtain a directory handle)
    `dwFlagsAndAttributes` = FILE_FLAG_BACKUP_SEMANTICS
                             (required to obtain a directory handle)
    `hTemplateFile` = NULL (when opening an existing file or directory,
                            `CreateFile` ignores this parameter)

The string that is returned by `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function
uses the \\?\ syntax. To skip the prefix and convert backslashes
to slashes, the `normalize_ntpath()` mingw function will be used.

Note: `GetFinalPathNameByHandle()` function returns a final path.
It is the path that is returned when a path is fully resolved.
For example, for a symbolic link named "C:\tmp\mydir" that points to
"D:\yourdir", the final path would be "D:\yourdir".

937974fc65 mingw: ensure getcwd() reports the correct case
When switching the current working directory, say, in PowerShell, it is
quite possible to use a different capitalization than the one that is
recorded on disk. While doing the same in `cmd.exe` adjusts the
capitalization magically, that does not happen in PowerShell so that
`getcwd()` returns the current directory in a different way than is
recorded on disk.

Typically this creates no problems except when you call

	git log .

in a subdirectory called, say, "GIT/" but you switched to "Git/" and
your `getcwd()` reports the latter, then Git won't understand that you
wanted to see the history as per the `GIT/` subdirectory but it thinks you
wanted to see the history of some directory that may have existed in the
past (but actually never did).

So let's be extra careful to adjust the capitalization of the current
directory before working with it.

Reported by a few PowerShell power users ;-)

c6f050a434 mingw: load system libraries the recommended way
When we access IPv6-related functions, we load the corresponding system
library using the `LoadLibrary()` function, which is not the recommended
way to load system libraries.

In practice, it does not make a difference: the `ws2_32.dll` library
containing the IPv6 functions is already loaded into memory, so
LoadLibrary() simply reuses the already-loaded library.

Still, recommended way is recommended way, so let's use that instead.

While at it, also adjust the code in contrib/ that loads system libraries.

d7e8c87421 mingw: implement nanosecond-precision file times
We no longer use any of MSVCRT's stat-functions, so there's no need to
stick to a CRT-compatible 'struct stat' either.

Define and use our own POSIX-2013-compatible 'struct stat' with nanosecond-
precision file times.

Note: This can cause performance issues when using Git variants with
different file time resolutions, as the timestamps are stored in the Git
index: after updating the index with a Git variant that uses
second-precision file times, a nanosecond-aware Git will think that
pretty much every single file listed in the index is out of date.

To structure the code better, let's factor that part out into its own

Note: it would be tempting to try to unify this code with the part of
do_lstat() that does the same thing, but they operate on different data
structures: BY_HANDLE_FILE_INFORMATION vs WIN32_FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DATA. So
unfortunately, they cannot be unified.

d641097589 mingw: enable atomic O_APPEND
The Windows CRT implements O_APPEND "manually": on write() calls, the
file pointer is set to EOF before the data is written. Clearly, this is
not atomic. And in fact, this is the root cause of failures observed in
t5552-skipping-fetch-negotiator.sh and t5503-tagfollow.sh, where
different processes write to the same trace file simultanously; it also
occurred in t5400-send-pack.sh, but there it was worked around in
71406ed4d6 ("t5400: avoid concurrent writes into a trace file",
2017-05-18).

Fortunately, Windows does support atomic O_APPEND semantics using the
file access mode FILE_APPEND_DATA. Provide an implementation that does.

This implementation is minimal in such a way that it only implements
the open modes that are actually used in the Git code base. Emulation
for other modes can be added as necessary later. To become aware of
the necessity early, the unusal error ENOSYS is reported if an
unsupported mode is encountered.

9ee0540a40 mingw: abort on invalid strftime formats
On Windows, strftime() does not silently ignore invalid formats, but
warns about them and then returns 0 and sets errno to EINVAL.

Unfortunately, Git does not expect such a behavior, as it disagrees
with strftime()'s semantics on Linux. As a consequence, Git
misinterprets the return value 0 as "I need more space" and grows the
buffer. As the larger buffer does not fix the format, the buffer grows
and grows and grows until we are out of memory and abort.

Ideally, we would switch off the parameter validation just for
strftime(), but we cannot even override the invalid parameter handler
via _set_thread_local_invalid_parameter_handler() using MINGW because
that function is not declared. Even _set_invalid_parameter_handler(),
which *is* declared, does not help, as it simply does... nothing.

So let's just bite the bullet and override strftime() for MINGW and
abort on an invalid format string. While this does not provide the
best user experience, it is the best we can do.

484257925f Replace Free Software Foundation address in license notices
The mailing address for the FSF has changed over the years.  Rather than
updating the address across all files, refer readers to gnu.org, as the
GNU GPL documentation now suggests for license notices.  The mailing
address is retained in the full license files (COPYING and LGPL-2.1).

The old address is still present in t/diff-lib/COPYING.  This is
intentional, as the file is used in tests and the contents are not
expected to change.

1a172e4ac1 mingw: optionally redirect stderr/stdout via the same handle
The "2>&1" notation in Powershell and in Unix shells implies that stderr
is redirected to the same handle into which stdout is already written.

Let's use this special value to allow the same trick with
GIT_REDIRECT_STDERR and GIT_REDIRECT_STDOUT: if the former's value is
`2>&1`, then stderr will simply be written to the same handle as stdout.

The functionality was suggested by Jeff Hostetler.

3f944424ac mingw: add experimental feature to redirect standard handles
Particularly when calling Git from applications, such as Visual Studio's
Team Explorer, it is important that stdin/stdout/stderr are closed
properly. However, when spawning processes on Windows, those handles
must be marked as inheritable if we want to use them, but that flag is a
global flag and may very well be used by other spawned processes which
then do not know to close those handles.

Let's introduce a set of environment variables (GIT_REDIRECT_STDIN and
friends) that specify paths to files, or even better, named pipes (which
are similar to Unix sockets) and that are used by the spawned Git
process.  This helps work around above-mentioned issue: those named
pipes will be opened in a non-inheritable way upon startup, and no
handles are passed around (and therefore no inherited handles need to be
closed by any spawned child).

This feature shipped with Git for Windows (marked as experimental) since
v2.11.0(2), so it has seen some serious testing in the meantime.

19716b21a4 cleanup: fix possible overflow errors in binary search
A common mistake when writing binary search is to allow possible
integer overflow by using the simple average:

	mid = (min + max) / 2;

Instead, use the overflow-safe version:

	mid = min + (max - min) / 2;

This translation is safe since the operation occurs inside a loop
conditioned on "min < max". The included changes were found using
the following git grep:

	git grep '/ *2;' '*.c'

Making this cleanup will prevent future review friction when a new
binary search is contructed based on existing code.
