Depending on the file content, eol parameters and .gitattributes
"git add" may give a warning when the eol of a file will change when
the file is checked out again.
There are 2 different warnings, either "CRLF will be replaced..." or
"LF will be replaced...". Let t0027 check for these warnings by
adding new parameters to create_file_in_repo(), which tells what
warnings are expected.
When a file has eol=lf or eol=crlf in .gitattributes, it is handled
as text and should be normalized. Add tests for these cases that
were not covered.

Add test cases for core.eol "native" and "" (unset).
(MINGW uses CRLF, all other systems LF as native line endings)
Add test cases for the attributes "eol=lf" and "eol=crlf"
Other minor changes:
- Use the more portable 'tr' instead of 'od -c' to convert '\n' into 'Q'
and '\0' into 'N'
- Style fixes for shell functions according to the coding guide lines
- Replace "txtbin" with "attr"

Historically there are 3 different parameters controlling how line endings
are handled by Git:
- core.autocrlf
- core.eol
- the "text" attribute in .gitattributes
There are different types of content:
- (1) Files with only LF
- (2) Files with only CRLF
- (3) Files with mixed LF and CRLF
- (4) Files with LF and/or CRLF with CR not followed by LF
- (5) Files which are binary (e.g. have NUL bytes)
Recently the question came up, how files with mixed EOLs are handled by Git
(and libgit2) when they are checked out and core.autocrlf=true.

Add the EXPENSIVE t0027-auto-crlf.sh to test all combination of files
and parameters for both "git add/commit" and "git checkout".
