"git bisect" learns the "--first-parent" option to find the first
breakage along the first-parent chain.
* al/bisect-first-parent:
bisect: combine args passed to find_bisection()
bisect: introduce first-parent flag
cmd_bisect__helper: defer parsing no-checkout flag
rev-list: allow bisect and first-parent flags
t6030: modernize "git bisect run" tests
cmd_bisect__helper() is intended as a temporary shim layer serving as an
interface for git-bisect.sh. This function and git-bisect.sh should
eventually be replaced by a C implementation, cmd_bisect(), serving as
an entrypoint for all "git bisect ..." shell commands: cmd_bisect() will
only parse the first token following "git bisect", and dispatch the
remaining args to the appropriate function ["bisect_start()",
"bisect_next()", etc.].
Thus, cmd_bisect__helper() should not be responsible for parsing flags
like --no-checkout. Instead, let the --no-checkout flag remain in the
argv array, so it may be evaluated alongside the other options already
parsed by bisect_start().

6c722cbe5a (bisect: allow CRLF line endings in "git bisect replay"

it not being included in the last field, which breaks at least when
running under OpenBSD 6.7's sh.
Instead of just assume the CR will get swallowed, read the rest of
the line into an otherwise unused variable and ignore it everywhere
except on the call for git bisect start, where it matters.

We advertise that the bisect log can be corrected in your editor

turn the line endings to CRLF.
Update the parser of the input lines so that the CR at the end of
the line gets ignored.
Were anyone to intentionally be using terms/revs with embedded CRs,
replaying such bisects will no longer work with this change. I suspect
that this is incredibly rare.

Reimplement the `bisect_start` shell function partially in C and add
`bisect-start` subcommand to `git bisect--helper` to call it from
git-bisect.sh .
The last part is not converted because it calls another shell function.
`bisect_start` shell function will be completed after the `bisect_next`
shell function is ported in C.
Using `--bisect-start` subcommand is a temporary measure to port shell
function in C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions
are ported, this subcommand will be retired and will be called by some
other methods.
Also introduce a method `bisect_append_log_quoted` to keep things short
and crisp.
Note that we are a bit lax about command-line parsing because the helper
is not supposed to be called by the user directly (but only from the git
bisect script).

This allows a natural user-interface when looking for any change in the
code, not just regression. For example:
git bisect start --term-old fast --term-new slow
git bisect fast
git bisect slow
...
There were several proposed user-interfaces for this feature. This patch
implements it as options to 'git bisect start' for the following reasons:
* By construction, the terms will be valid for one and only one
bisection.
* Unlike positional arguments, using named options avoid having to
remember an order.
* We can combine user-defined terms and passing old/new commits as
argument to "git bisect start".
* The implementation is relatively simple.

When not looking for a regression during a bisect but for a fix or a
change in another given property, it can be confusing to use 'good'
and 'bad'.
This patch introduce `git bisect new` and `git bisect old` as an
alternative to 'bad' and good': the commits which have a certain
property must be marked as `new` and the ones which do not as `old`.
The output will be the first commit after the change in the property.
During a new/old bisect session you cannot use bad/good commands and
vice-versa.
Some commands are still not available for old/new:
* git rev-list --bisect does not treat the revs/bisect/new and
revs/bisect/old-SHA1 files.

When running for example "git bisect bad HEAD" or

"git bisect (bad|good)" has to be parsed into a
commit hash before checking if it is the expected
commit or not.
We could do that in is_expected_rev() or in
check_expected_revs(), but it is already done in
bisect_state(). Let's just store the hash values
that result from this parsing, and then reuse
them after all the parsing is done.
This way we can also use a for loop over these
values to call bisect_write() on them, instead of

git-bisect can now perform bisection of a history without performing
a checkout at each stage of the bisection process. Instead, HEAD is updated.
One use-case for this function is allow git bisect to be used with
damaged repositories where git checkout would fail because the tree
referenced by the commit is damaged.
It can also be used in other cases where actual checkout of the tree
is not required to progress the bisection.

Gettextize the [Y/n] questions git-bisect presents, and leave a note
in a TRANSLATORS comment explaining that translators have to preserve
a mention of the Y/n characters since the program will expect them,
and not their localized equivalents.

Gettextize bisect_replay messages that use the $1 variable. Since it's
subroutine local we have to provide an alias for it for eval_gettext.
Since I was doing that anyway I've changed all other uses of $1
variable to use the alias variable for clarity.
