During "git p4 clone" if p4 process returns an error from the server,
it will store the message in the 'err' variable. Then it will send a
text command "die-now" to git-fast-import. However, git-fast-import
raises an exception: "fatal: Unsupported command: die-now" and err is
never displayed. This patch ensures that err is shown to the end user.

Fixes several Python diagnostics about invalid escape sequences. The
diagnostics appear for me in Python 3.12, and may appear in earlier
versions. The fix is to use raw string literals so that backslashes are
not interpreted as introducing escape sequences. Raw string literals
are already in use in this file, so adding more does not impact
toolchain compatibility.

The git-p4 tool creates a bunch of temporary branches that share a
common prefix "refs/git-p4-tmp/". These branches get cleaned up via
git-update-ref(1) after the import has finished. Once done, we try to
manually remove the now supposedly-empty ".git/refs/git-p4-tmp/"
directory.
This last step can fail in case there still are any temporary branches
around that we failed to delete because `os.rmdir()` refuses to delete a
non-empty directory. It can thus be seen as kind of a sanity check to
verify that we really did delete all temporary branches. Another failure
mode though is when the directory didn't exist in the first place, which
can be the case when using an alternate ref backend like the upcoming
"reftable" backend.
Convert the code to instead use git-for-each-ref(1) to verify that there
are no more temporary branches around. This works alright with alternate
ref backends while retaining the sanity check that we really did prune
all temporary branches.
This is a modification in behaviour for the "files" backend because the
empty directory does not get deleted anymore. But arguably we should not
care about such implementation details of the ref backend anyway, and
this should not cause any user-visible change in behaviour.

git-p4.py would attempt to put a symlink in LFS if its file extension
matched git-p4.largeFileExtensions.
Git LFS doesn't store symlinks because smudge/clean filters don't handle
symlinks. They never get passed to the filter process nor the
smudge/clean filters, nor could that occur without a change to the
protocol or command-line interface. Unless Git learned how to send them
to the filters, Git LFS would have a hard time using them in any useful
way.
Git LFS's goal is to move large files out of the repository history, and
symlinks are functionally limited to 4 KiB or a similar size on most
systems.

git-p4: fix CR LF handling for utf16 files
The function p4CmdList executes a Perforce command and

The old handling contained separate hacks for each of the corresponding
dictionary keys. This commit tries to refactor the coding to handle the

The error handling code path is meant to be triggered when the loop does
not exit early via "break". This fails, as the boolean variable "found",
which is used to track whether the loop was exited early, is initialized
incorrectly.
It would be possible to fix this issue by correcting the initialization,
but Python supports a for:-else: control flow construct for this exact
use case (executing code if a loop does not exit early), so it is more
idiomatic to remove the tracking variable entirely.
In addition, the error message no longer refers to a variable that does
not exist.

Perforce silently replaces LF with CR LF for "utf16" files if the client
is a native Windows client. Since git's autocrlf logic does not undo
this transformation for UTF-16 encoded files, git-p4 replaces CR LF with
LF during the sync if the file type "utf16" is detected and the Perforce
client platform indicates that this conversion is performed.
Windows only runs on little-endian architectures, therefore the encoding
of the byte stream received from the Perforce client is UTF-16-LE and
the relevant byte sequence is 0D 00 0A 00.

git-p4 is designed to run correctly under python2.7 and python3, but
its functional behavior wrt importing user-entered text differs across
these environments:
Under python2, git-p4 "naively" writes the Perforce bytestream into git
metadata (and does not set an "encoding" header on the commits); this
means that any non-utf-8 byte sequences end up creating invalidly-encoded
commit metadata in git.
Under python3, git-p4 attempts to decode the Perforce bytestream as utf-8
data, and fails badly (with an unhelpful error) when non-utf-8 data is
encountered.
Perforce clients (especially p4v) encourage user entry of changelist
descriptions (and user full names) in OS-local encoding, and store the
resulting bytestream to the server unmodified - such that different
clients can end up creating mutually-unintelligible messages. The most
common inconsistency, in many Perforce environments, is likely to be utf-8
(typical in linux) vs cp-1252 (typical in windows).
Make the changelist-description- and user-fullname-handling code
python-runtime-agnostic, introducing three "strategies" selectable via
config:
- 'passthrough', behaving as previously under python2,
- 'strict', behaving as previously under python3, and
- 'fallback', favoring utf-8 but supporting a secondary encoding when
utf-8 decoding fails, and finally escaping high-range bytes if the
decoding with the secondary encoding also fails.
Keep the python2 default behavior as-is ('legacy' strategy), but switch
the python3 default strategy to 'fallback' with default fallback encoding
'cp1252'.
Also include tests exercising these encoding strategies, documentation for
the new config, and improve the user-facing error messages when decoding
does fail.

Perforce has a file type "utf8" which represents a text file with
explicit BOM. utf8-encoded files *without* BOM are stored as
regular file type "text". The "utf8" file type behaves like text
in all but one important way: it is stored, internally, without
the leading 3 BOM bytes.
git-p4 has historically imported utf8-with-BOM files (files stored,
in Perforce, as type "utf8") the same way as regular text files -
losing the BOM in the process.
Under most circumstances this issue has little functional impact,
as most systems consider the BOM to be optional and redundant, but
this *is* a correctness failure, and can have lead to practical
issues for example when BOMs are explicitly included in test files,
for example in a file encoding test suite.
Fix the handling of utf8-with-BOM files when importing changes from
p4 to git, and introduce a test that checks it is working correctly.

With the --branch argument of the "sync" subcommand, git-p4 enables
you to import a perforce branch/path to an arbitrary git ref, using
a full ref path, or to refs/remotes/p4/* or refs/heads/p4/*,
depending on --import-local, using a short ref name.
However, when you later want to explicitly sync such a given ref to
pick up subsequent p4 changes, it only works if the ref was placed
in the p4 path *and* has only one path component (no "/").
This limitation results from a bad assumption in the
existing-branch sync logic, and also means you cannot individually
sync branches detected by --detect-branches, as these also get a
"/" in their names.
Fix "git p4 sync --branch", when called with an existing ref, so
that it works correctly regardless of whether the ref is in the p4
path or not, and (in the case of refs in the p4 path) regardless of
whether it has a "/" in its short name or not.
Also add tests to validate that these branch-specific syncs work
as expected.

Single perforce branch might be sync'ed multiple times with different
revision numbers, so it will be seen to Git as complete different
commits. This can be done by the following command:
git p4 sync --branch=NAME //perforce/path...
It is assumed, that this command applied multiple times and
peforce repository changes between command invocations.
In such situation, git p4 will see multiple perforce branches with
same name and different revision numbers. The problem is that to make
a shelve, git-p4 script will try to find "origin" branch, if not
specified in command line explicitly. And previously script selected
any branch with same name and don't mention particular revision number.
Later this may cause failure of the command "git diff-tree -r $rev^ $rev",
so shelve can't be created (due to wrong origin branch/commit).
This commit fixes the heuristic by which git p4 selects origin branch:
first it tries to select branch with same perforce path and perforce
revision, and if it fails, then selects branch with only same perforce
path (ignoring perforce revision number).
