1108cea7f8 tests: remove most uses of test_i18ncmp
As a follow-up to d162b25f95 (tests: remove support for
GIT_TEST_GETTEXT_POISON, 2021-01-20) remove most uses of test_i18ncmp
via a simple s/test_i18ncmp/test_cmp/g search-replacement.

I'm leaving t6300-for-each-ref.sh out due to a conflict with in-flight
changes between "master" and "seen", as well as the prerequisite
itself due to other changes between "master" and "next/seen" which add
new test_i18ncmp uses.

26c7d06783 help -a: improve and make --verbose default
When you type "git help" (or just "git") you are greeted with a list
with commonly used commands and their short description and are
suggested to use "git help -a" or "git help -g" for more details.

"git help -av" would be more friendly and inline with what is shown
with "git help" since it shows list of commands with description as
well, and commands are properly grouped.

"help -av" does not show everything "help -a" shows though. Add
external command section in "help -av" for this. While at there, add a
section for aliases as well (until now aliases have no UI, just "git
config").

1b81d8cb19 help: use command-list.txt for the source of guides
The help command currently hard codes the list of guides and their
summary in C. Let's move this list to command-list.txt. This lets us
extract summary lines from Documentation/git*.txt. This also
potentially lets us list guides in git.txt, but I'll leave that for
now.

63eae83f8f help: add "-a --verbose" to list all commands with synopsis
This lists all recognized commands [1] by category. The group order
follows closely git.txt.

[1] We may actually show commands that are not built (e.g. if you set
NO_PERL you don't have git-instaweb but it's still listed here). I
ignore the problem because on Linux a git package could be split
anyway. The "git-core" package may not contain git-instaweb even if
it's built because it may end up in a separate package. We can't know
anyway.

0089521cac git.c: convert --list-* to --list-cmds=*
Even if these are hidden options, let's make them a bit more generic
since we're introducing more listing types shortly. The code is
structured to allow combining multiple listing types together because
we will soon add more types the 'builtins'.

'parseopt' remains separate because it has separate (SPC) to match
git-completion.bash needs and will not combine with others.

cfb22a02ab help: use command-list.h for common command list
The previous commit added code generation for all_cmd_desc[] which
includes almost everything we need to generate common command list.
Convert help code to use that array instead and drop common_cmds[] array.

The description of each common command group is removed from
command-list.txt. This keeps this file format simpler. common-cmds.h
will not be generated correctly after this change due to the
command-list.txt format change. But it does not matter and
common-cmds.h will be removed.

d691551192 t0012: test "-h" with builtins
Since commit 99caeed05 (Let 'git <command> -h' show usage
without a git dir, 2009-11-09), the git wrapper handles "-h"
specially, skipping any repository setup but still calling
the builtin's cmd_foo() function. This means that every
cmd_foo() must be ready to handle this case, but we don't
have any systematic tests. This led to "git am -h" being
broken for some time without anybody noticing.

This patch just tests that "git foo -h" works for every
builtin, where we see a 129 exit code (the normal code for
our usage() helper), and that the word "usage" appears in
the output.

2c6b6d9f7d help: make option --help open man pages only for Git commands
If option --help is passed to a Git command, we try to open
the man page of that command.  However, we do it for both commands
and concepts.  Make sure it is an actual command.

This makes "git <concept> --help" not working anymore, while
"git help <concept>" still works.

af74128f4a help: introduce option --exclude-guides
Introduce option --exclude-guides to the help command.  With this option
being passed, "git help" will open man pages only for actual commands.

Since we know it is a command, we can use function help_unknown_command
to give the user advice on typos.
