The name is hard-coded to reflect that we use Travis CI for continuous
testing.
In the next commits, we will extend this to be able use Azure DevOps,
too.
So let's adjust the name to make it more generic.

Travis CI dutifully builds and tests each new branch tip, even if its
tree has previously been successfully built and tested. This happens
often enough in contributors' workflows, when a work-in-progress
branch is rebased changing e.g. only commit messages or the order or
number of commits while leaving the resulting code intact, and is then
pushed to a Travis CI-enabled GitHub fork.
This is wasting Travis CI's resources and is sometimes scary-annoying
when the new tip commit with a tree identical to the previous,
successfully tested one is suddenly reported in red, because one of
the OSX build jobs happened to exceed the time limit yet again.
So extend our Travis CI build scripts to skip building commits whose
trees have previously been successfully built and tested. Use the
Travis CI cache feature to keep a record of the object names of trees
that tested successfully, in a plain and simple flat text file, one
line per tree object name. Append the current tree's object name at
the end of every successful build job to this file, along with a bit
of additional info about the build job (commit object name, Travis CI
job number and id). Limit the size of this file to 1000 records, to
prevent it from growing too large for git/git's forever living
integration branches. Check, using a simple grep invocation, in each
build job whether the current commit's tree is already in there, and
skip the build if it is. Include a message in the skipped build job's
trace log, containing the URL to the build job successfully testing
that tree for the first time and instructions on how to force a
re-build. Catch the case when a build job, which successfully built
and tested a particular tree for the first time, is restarted and omit
the URL of the previous build job's trace log, as in this case it's
the same build job and the trace log has just been overwritten.
Note: this won't kick in if two identical trees are on two different
branches, because Travis CI caches are not shared between build jobs
of different branches.

The change in commit 4f2636667 (travis-ci: use 'set -x' in 'ci/*'
scripts for extra tracing output, 2017-12-12) left a couple of rough
edges:
- 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' is executed in a Docker container and
therefore doesn't source 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which would enable
tracing executed commands. Enable 'set -x' in this script, too.
- 'ci/print-test-failures.sh' iterates over all the files containing
the exit codes of all the executed test scripts. Since there are
over 800 such files, the loop produces way too much noise with
tracing executed commands enabled, so disable 'set -x' for this
script.
- 'ci/run-windows-build.sh' busily waits in a loop for the result of
the Windows build, producing too much noise with tracing executed
commands enabled as well. Disable 'set -x' for the duration of
that loop.

Most of the Travis CI commands are in the '.travis.yml'. The yml format
does not support functions and therefore code duplication is necessary
to run commands across all builds.
To fix this, add a library for common CI functions. Move all Travis CI
code into dedicated scripts and make them call the library first.

* ls/travis-relays-for-windows-ci:
travis-ci: retry if Git for Windows CI returns HTTP error 502 or 503
travis-ci: handle Git for Windows CI status "failed" explicitly
The Git for Windows CI web app sometimes returns HTTP errors of
"502 bad gateway" or "503 service unavailable" [1]. We also need to
check the HTTP content because the GfW web app seems to pass through
(error) results from other Azure calls with HTTP code 200.
Wait a little and retry the request if this happens.

Git for Windows CI returns "completed: failed" if a build or test
failure happened. This case was processed as "Unhandled status".
Handle the case explicitly.

If the $STATUS variable contains a "%" character then printf will
interpret that as invalid format string. Fix this by formatting $STATUS
as string.

Most Git developers work on Linux and they have no way to know if their
changes would break the Git for Windows build. Let's fix that by adding
a job to TravisCI that builds and tests Git on Windows. Unfortunately,
TravisCI does not support Windows.
Therefore, we did the following:
* Johannes Schindelin set up a Visual Studio Team Services build
sponsored by Microsoft and made it accessible via an Azure Function
that speaks a super-simple API. We made TravisCI use this API to
trigger a build, wait until its completion, and print the build and
test results.
* A Windows build and test run takes up to 3h and TravisCI has a timeout
after 50min for Open Source projects. Since the TravisCI job does not
use heavy CPU/memory/etc. resources, the friendly TravisCI folks
extended the job timeout for git/git to 3h.
Things, that would need to be done:
* Someone with write access to https://travis-ci.org/git/git would need
to add the secret token as "GFW_CI_TOKEN" variable in the TravisCI
repository setting [1]. Afterwards the build should just work.
Things, that might need to be done:
* The Windows box can only process a single build at a time. A second
Windows build would need to wait until the first finishes. This
waiting time and the build time after the wait could exceed the 3h
threshold. If this is a problem, then it is likely to happen every day
as usually multiple branches are pushed at the same time (pu/next/
master/maint). I cannot test this as my TravisCI account has the 50min
timeout. One solution could be to limit the number of concurrent
TravisCI jobs [2].
