We had several C files include cache.h unnecessarily. Replace those
with an include of "git-compat-util.h" instead. Much like the previous
commit, these have all been verified via both ensuring that
gcc -E $SOURCE_FILE | grep '"cache.h"'
found no hits and that
make DEVELOPER=1 ${OBJECT_FILE_FOR_SOURCE_FILE}
successfully compiles without warnings.

Convert test helper to use `start_bg_command()` when spawning a server
daemon in the background rather than blocks of platform-specific code.
Also, while here, remove _() translation around error messages since
this is a test helper and not Git code.

Add `command_len` argument to the Simple IPC API.
In my original Simple IPC API, I assumed that the request would always
be a null-terminated string of text characters. The `command`
argument was just a `const char *`.
I found a caller that would like to pass a binary command to the
daemon, so I am amending the Simple IPC API to receive `const char
*command, size_t command_len` arguments.
I considered changing the `command` argument to be a `void *`, but the
IPC layer simply passes it to the pkt-line layer which takes a `const
char *`, so to avoid confusion I left it as is.
Note, the response side has always been a `struct strbuf` which
includes the buffer and length, so we already support returning a
binary answer. (Yes, it feels a little weird returning a binary
buffer in a `strbuf`, but it works.)

Create t0052-simple-ipc.sh with unit tests for the "simple-ipc" mechanism.
Create t/helper/test-simple-ipc test tool to exercise the "simple-ipc"
functions.
When the tool is invoked with "run-daemon", it runs a server to listen
for "simple-ipc" connections on a test socket or named pipe and
responds to a set of commands to exercise/stress the communication
setup.
When the tool is invoked with "start-daemon", it spawns a "run-daemon"
command in the background and waits for the server to become ready
before exiting. (This helps make unit tests in t0052 more predictable
and avoids the need for arbitrary sleeps in the test script.)
The tool also has a series of client "send" commands to send commands
and data to a server instance.
