2ff6c34612 userdiff: support Bash
Support POSIX, bashism and mixed function declarations, all four
compound command types, trailing comments and mixed whitespace.

Even though Bash allows locale-dependent characters in function names
<https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/245336/3645>, only detect function
names with characters allowed by POSIX.1-2017
<https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap03.html#tag_03_235>
for simplicity. This should cover the vast majority of use cases, and
produces system-agnostic results.

Since a word pattern has to be specified, but there is no easy way to
know the default word pattern, use the default `IFS` characters for a
starter. A later patch can improve this.

ff01513f45 userdiff: expand detected chunk headers for css
The regex used for the CSS builtin diff driver in git is only
able to show chunk headers for lines that start with a number,
a letter or an underscore.

However, the regex fails to detect classes (starts with a .), ids
(starts with a #), :root and attribute-value based selectors (for
example [class*="col-"]), as well as @based block-level statements
like @page,@keyframes and @media since all of them, start with a
special character.

Allow the selectors and block level statements to begin with these
special characters.

75c3b6b2e8 userdiff: improve Fortran xfuncname regex
The third part of the Fortran xfuncname regex wants to match the
beginning of a subroutine or function, so it allows for all characters
except `'`, `"` or whitespace before the keyword 'function' or
'subroutine'. This is meant to match the 'recursive', 'elemental' or
'pure' keywords, as well as function return types, and to prevent
matches inside strings.

However, the negated set does not contain the `!` comment character,
so a line with an end-of-line comment containing the keyword 'function' or
'subroutine' followed by another word is mistakenly chosen as a hunk header.

Improve the regex by adding `!` to the negated set.

b79e6925f0 userdiff: add tests for Fortran xfuncname regex
The Fortran userdiff patterns, introduced in 909a5494f8 (userdiff.c: add
builtin fortran regex patterns, 2010-09-10), predate the test
infrastructure for xfuncname patterns, introduced in bfa7d01413 (t4018:

Add tests for the Fortran xfuncname patterns. The test
't/t4018/fortran-comment-keyword' documents a shortcoming of the regex
that is fixed in a subsequent commit.

While at it, add descriptive comments for the different parts of the
regex.

09dad9256a userdiff: support Markdown
It's typical to find Markdown documentation alongside source code, and
having better context for documentation changes is useful; see also
commit 69f9c87d4 (userdiff: add support for Fountain documents,
2015-07-21).

The pattern is based on the CommonMark specification 0.29, section 4.2
<https://spec.commonmark.org/> but doesn't match empty headings, as
seeing them in a hunk header is unlikely to be useful.

Only ATX headings are supported, as detecting setext headings would
require printing the line before a pattern matches, or matching a
multiline pattern. The word-diff pattern is the same as the pattern for
HTML, because many Markdown parsers accept inline HTML.

f5914f4b6b parse_config_key(): return subsection len as size_t
We return the length to a subset of a string using an "int *"
out-parameter. This is fine most of the time, as we'd expect config keys
to be relatively short, but it could behave oddly if we had a gigantic
config key. A more appropriate type is size_t.

Let's switch over, which lets our callers use size_t as appropriate
(they are bound by our type because they must pass the out-parameter as
a pointer). This is mostly just a cleanup to make it clear this code
handles long strings correctly. In practice, our config parser already
chokes on long key names (because of a similar int/size_t mixup!).

When doing an int/size_t conversion, we have to be careful that nobody
was trying to assign a negative value to the variable. I manually
confirmed that for each case here. They tend to just feed the result to
xmemdupz() or similar; in a few cases I adjusted the parameter types for
helper functions to make sure the size_t is preserved.

8da56a4848 userdiff: fix some corner cases in dts regex
While reviewing some dts diffs recently I noticed that the hunk header
logic was failing to find the containing node. This is because the regex
doesn't consider properties that may span multiple lines, i.e.

	property = <something>,
		   <something_else>;

and it got hung up on comments inside nodes that look like the root node
because they start with '/*'. Add tests for these cases and update the
regex to find them. Maybe detecting the root node is too complicated but
forcing it to be a backslash with any amount of whitespace up to an open
bracket seemed OK. I tried to detect that a comment is in-between the
two parts but I wasn't happy so I just dropped it.

3c81760bc6 userdiff: add a builtin pattern for dts files
The Linux kernel receives many patches to the devicetree files each
release. The hunk header for those patches typically show nothing,
making it difficult to figure out what node is being modified without
applying the patch or opening the file and seeking to the context. Let's
add a builtin 'dts' pattern to git so that users can get better diff
output on dts files when they use the diff=dts driver.

The regex has been constructed based on the spec at devicetree.org[1]
and with some help from Johannes Sixt.

  but then be liberal in what follows, assuming that the text that is

7a400a2c02 attr: remove an implicit dependency on the_index
Make the attr API take an index_state instead of assuming the_index in
attr code. All call sites are converted blindly to keep the patch
simple and retain current behavior. Individual call sites may receive
further updates to use the right index instead of the_index.

There is one ugly temporary workaround added in attr.c that needs some
more explanation.

Commit c24f3abace (apply: file commited with CRLF should roundtrip
diff and apply - 2017-08-19) forces one convert_to_git() call to NOT
read the index at all. But what do you know, we read it anyway by
falling back to the_index. When "istate" from convert_to_git is now
propagated down to read_attr_from_array() we will hit segfault
somewhere inside read_blob_data_from_index.

The right way of dealing with this is to kill "use_index" variable and
only follow "istate" but at this stage we are not ready for that:
while most git_attr_set_direction() calls just passes the_index to be
assigned to use_index, unpack-trees passes a different one which is
used by entry.c code, which has no way to know what index to use if we
delete use_index. So this has to be done later.

0719f3eecd userdiff: add built-in pattern for CSS
CSS is widely used, motivating it being included as a built-in pattern.

It must be noted that the word_regex for CSS (i.e. the regex defining
what is a word in the language) does not consider '.' and '#' characters
(in CSS selectors) to be part of the word. This behavior is documented
by the test t/t4018/css-rule.
The logic behind this behavior is the following: identifiers in CSS
selectors are identifiers in a HTML/XML document. Therefore, the '.'/'#'
character are not part of the identifier, but an indicator of the nature
of the identifier in HTML/XML (class or id). Diffing ".class1" and
".class2" must show that the class name is changed, but we still are
selecting a class.

Logic behind the "pattern" regex is:
    1. reject lines ending with a colon/semicolon (properties)
    2. if a line begins with a name in column 1, pick the whole line

As all these headers protect themselves against repeated inclusion
by the "#ifndef FOO_H / #define FOO_H / ... / #endif" idiom, leave
only the first inclusion and remove the later inclusion as a no-op
clean-up.

8a2e8da367 userdiff: have 'cpp' hunk header pattern catch more C++ anchor points
The hunk header pattern 'cpp' is intended for C and C++ source code, but
it is actually not particularly useful for the latter, and even misses
some use-cases for the former.

The parts of the pattern have the following flaws:

- The first part matches an identifier followed immediately by a colon
  and arbitrary text and is intended to reject goto labels and C++
  access specifiers (public, private, protected). But this pattern also
  rejects C++ constructs, which look like this:

    MyClass::MyClass()
    MyClass::~MyClass()
    MyClass::Item MyClass::Find(...

- The second part matches an identifier followed by a list of qualified
  names (i.e. identifiers separated by the C++ scope operator '::')
  separated by space or '*' followed by an opening parenthesis (with
  space between the tokens). It matches function declarations like

    struct item* get_head(...
    int Outer::Inner::Func(...

  Since the pattern requires at least two identifiers, GNU-style
  function definitions are ignored:

    void
    func(...

  Moreover, since the pattern does not allow punctuation other than '*',
  the following C++ constructs are not recognized:

  . template definitions:
      template<class T> int func(T arg)

  . functions returning references:
      const string& get_message()

  . functions returning templated types:
      vector<int> foo()

  . operator definitions:
      Value operator+(Value l, Value r)

- The third part of the pattern finally matches compound definitions.
  But it forgets about unions and namespaces, and also skips single-line
  definitions

    struct random_iterator_tag {};

  because no semicolon can occur on the line.

Change the first pattern to require a colon at the end of the line
(except for trailing space and comments), so that it does not reject
constructor or destructor definitions.

Notice that all interesting anchor points begin with an identifier or
keyword. But since there is a large variety of syntactical constructs
after the first "word", the simplest is to require only this word and
accept everything else. Therefore, this boils down to a line that begins
with a letter or underscore (optionally preceded by the C++ scope
operator '::' to accept functions returning a type anchored at the
global namespace). Replace the second and third part by a single pattern
that picks such a line.

This has the following desirable consequence:

- All constructs mentioned above are recognized.

and the following likely desirable consequences:

- Definitions of global variables and typedefs are recognized:

    int num_entries = 0;
    extern const char* help_text;
    typedef basic_string<wchar_t> wstring;

- Commonly used marco-ized boilerplate code is recognized:

    BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(CCanvas,CWnd)
    Q_DECLARE_METATYPE(MyStruct)
    PATTERNS("tex",...)

  (The last one is from this very patch.)

but also the following possibly undesirable consequence:

- When a label is not on a line by itself (except for a comment) it is
  no longer rejected, but can appear as a hunk header if it occurs at
  the beginning of a line:

    next:;

IMO, the benefits of the change outweigh the (possible) regressions by a
large margin.

0a5987fe5e userdiff: drop parse_driver function
When we parse userdiff config, we generally assume that

  diff.name.key

will affect the "key" value of the "name" driver. However,
without confirming that the key is a valid userdiff key, we
may accidentally conflict with the ancient "diff.color.*"
namespace. The current code is careful not to even create a
driver struct if we do not see a key that is known by the
diff-driver code.

However, this carefulness is unnecessary; the default driver
with no keys set behaves exactly the same as having no
driver at all. We can simply set up the driver struct as
soon as we see we have a config key that looks like a
driver. This makes the code a bit more readable.

d731f0ade1 convert some config callbacks to parse_config_key
These callers can drop some inline pointer arithmetic and
magic offset constants, making them more readable and less
error-prone (those constants had to match the lengths of
strings, but there is no automatic verification of that
fact).

The "ep" pointer (presumably for "end pointer"), which
points to the final key segment of the config variable, is
given the more standard name "key" to describe its function
rather than its derivation.
