We already have these checks in many printf-type functions that have
prototypes which are in header files.  Add these same checks to some
more prototypes in header functions and to static functions in .c
files.

The function takes a user-supplied string that is supposed to be a branch
name, and puts it in a strbuf after expanding possible shorthand notation.

A handful of open coded sequence to do this in the existing code have been
changed to use this helper function.

It was already what 'git apply' did in read_old_data(), just export it
as a real function, and make it be more generic.

In particular, this handles the case of the lstat() st_size data not
matching the readlink() return value properly (which apparently happens
at least on NTFS under Linux).  But as a result of this you could also
use the new function without even knowing how big the link is going to
be, and it will allocate an appropriately sized buffer.

So we pass in the st_size of the link as just a hint, rather than a
fixed requirement.

The new callback function strbuf_expand_dict_cb() can be used together
with strbuf_expand() if there is only a small number of placeholders
for static replacement texts.  It expects its dictionary as an array of
placeholder+value pairs as context parameter, terminated by an entry
with the placeholder member set to NULL.

The new helper is intended to aid converting the remaining calls of
interpolate().  strbuf_expand() is smaller, more flexible and can be
used to go faster than interpolate(), so it should replace the latter.

Currently, the --pretty=format prefix is looked up in a
tight loop in strbuf_expand(), if prefix is found it is then
used as argument for format_commit_item() that does another
search by a switch statement to select the proper operation.

Because the switch statement is already able to discard
unknown matches we don't need the prefix lookup before
to call format_commit_item().

Some of the --pretty=format placeholders expansions are expensive to
calculate.  This is made worse by the current code's use of
interpolate(), which requires _all_ placeholders are to be prepared
up front.

One way to speed this up is to check which placeholders are present
in the format string and to prepare only the expansions that are
needed.  That still leaves the allocation overhead of interpolate().

Another way is to use a callback based approach together with the
strbuf library to keep allocations to a minimum and avoid string
copies.  That's what this patch does.  It introduces a new strbuf
function, strbuf_expand().

The function takes a format string, list of placeholder strings,
a user supplied function 'fn', and an opaque pointer 'context'
to tell 'fn' what thingy to operate on.

The function 'fn' is expected to accept a strbuf, a parsed
placeholder string and the 'context' pointer, and append the
interpolated value for the 'context' thingy, according to the
format specified by the placeholder.

Thanks to Pierre Habouzit for his suggestion to use strchrnul() and
the code surrounding its callsite.  And thanks to Junio for most of
this commit message. :)

For that purpose, the ->buf is always initialized with a char * buf living
in the strbuf module. It is made a char * so that we can sloppily accept
things that perform: sb->buf[0] = '\0', and because you can't pass "" as an
initializer for ->buf without making gcc unhappy for very good reasons.

strbuf_init/_detach/_grow have been fixed to trust ->alloc and not ->buf
anymore.

as a consequence strbuf_detach is _mandatory_ to detach a buffer, copying
->buf isn't an option anymore, if ->buf is going to escape from the scope,
and eventually be free'd.

API changes:
  * strbuf_setlen now always works, so just make strbuf_reset a convenience
    macro.
  * strbuf_detatch takes a size_t* optional argument (meaning it can be
    NULL) to copy the buffer's len, as it was needed for this refactor to
    make the code more readable, and working like the callers.

read_line is now strbuf_getline, and is a first class citizen, it returns 0
when reading a line worked, EOF else.

The ->eof marker was used non-locally by fast-import.c, mimic the same
behaviour using a static int in "read_next_command", that now returns -1 on
EOF, and avoids to call strbuf_getline when it's in EOF state.

Also no longer automagically strbuf_release the buffer, it's counter
intuitive and breaks fast-import in a very subtle way.

Note: being at EOF implies that command_buf.len == 0.

* strbuf_splice replace a portion of the buffer with another.
* strbuf_attach replace a strbuf buffer with the given one, that should be
  malloc'ed. Then it enforces strbuf's invariants. If alloc > len, then this

  with a cost.

  * Off-by one fix in strbuf_addf: strbuf_avail() does not counts the final

    not critical as the growth mechanism chosen will always allocate _more_
    memory than asked, so the second test will not fail. It's some kind of
    miracle though.
  * Add size extension hints for strbuf_init and strbuf_read. If 0, default
    applies, else:

  The gory details are explained in strbuf.h. The change of semantics this
patch enforces is that the embeded buffer has always a '\0' character after
its last byte, to always make it a C-string. The offs-by-one changes are all
related to that very change.

  A strbuf can be used to store byte arrays, or as an extended string
library. The `buf' member can be passed to any C legacy string function,
because strbuf operations always ensure there is a terminating \0 at the end
of the buffer, not accounted in the `len' field of the structure.

  A strbuf can be used to generate a string/buffer whose final size is not
really known, and then "strbuf_detach" can be used to get the built buffer,
and keep the wrapping "strbuf" structure usable for further work again.

  Other interesting feature: strbuf_grow(sb, size) ensure that there is
enough allocated space in `sb' to put `size' new octets of data in the
buffer. It helps avoiding reallocating data for nothing when the problem the
strbuf helps to solve has a known typical size.

This patch introduces a new program, diff-tree-helper.  It reads
output from diff-cache and diff-tree, and produces a patch file.
The diff format customization can be done the same way the
show-diff uses; the same external diff interface introduced by
the previous patch to drive diff from show-diff is used so this
is not surprising.

It is used like the following examples:

   $ diff-cache --cached -z <tree> | diff-tree-helper -z -R paths...
   $ diff-tree -r -z <tree1> <tree2> | diff-tree-helper -z paths...

 - As usual, the use of the -z flag is recommended in the script
   to pass NUL-terminated filenames through the pipe between
   commands.

 - The -R flag is used to generate reverse diff.  It does not
   matter for diff-tree case, but it is sometimes useful to get
   a patch in the desired direction out of diff-cache.

 - The paths parameters are used to restrict the paths that
   appears in the output.  Again this is useful to use with
   diff-cache, which, unlike diff-tree, does not take such paths
   restriction parameters.
