When a run command cannot be executed or found, shells return exit code
126 or 127, respectively. Valid run commands are allowed to return
these codes as well to indicate bad revisions, though, for historical
reasons. This means typos can cause bogus bisect runs that go over the
full distance and end up reporting invalid results.
The best solution would be to reserve exit codes 126 and 127, like
71b0251cdd (Bisect run: "skip" current commit if script exit code is
125., 2007-10-26) did for 125, and abort bisect run when we get them.
That might be inconvenient for those who relied on the documentation
stating that 126 and 127 can be used for bad revisions, though.
The workaround used by this patch is to run the command on a known-good
revision and abort if we still get the same error code. This adds one
step to runs with scripts that use exit codes 126 and 127, but keeps
them supported, with one exception: It won't work with commands that
cannot recognize the (manually marked) known-good revision as such.
Run commands that use low exit codes are unaffected. Typos are reported
after executing the missing command twice and three checkouts (the first
step, the known good revision and back to the revision of the first
step).

Now that find_bisection() accepts multiple boolean arguments, these may
be combined into a single unsigned integer in order to declutter some of
the code in bisect.c
Also, rename the existing "flags" bitfield to "commit_flags", to
explicitly differentiate it from the new "bisect_flags" bitfield.

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().

There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are
caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with
processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern`
declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch.
This was the Coccinelle patch used:
@@
type T;
identifier f;
@@
- extern
T f(...);
and it was run with:
$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |
grep -v ^compat/ |
xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place
Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much

Leak fixes.
* ma/bisect-leakfix:
bisect: fix memory leak when returning best element
bisect: fix off-by-one error in `best_bisection_sorted()`
bisect: fix memory leak in `find_bisection()`
bisect: change calling-convention of `find_bisection()`
This function takes a commit list and returns a commit list. The
returned list is built by modifying the original list. Thus the caller
should not use the original list again (and after the next commit fixes
a memory leak, it must not).
Change the function signature so that it takes a **list and has void
return type. That should make it harder to misuse this function.
While we're here, document this function.

Using `--bisect-clean-state` subcommand is a measure to port shell
function to C so as to use the existing test suite. As more functions
are ported, this subcommand will be retired but its implementation will
be called by bisect_reset() and bisect_start().
Also introduce a function `mark_for_removal` to store the refs which

because we will need to get more information from this function in
some later patches.
The new "int *count" parameter gives the number of commits left after
the skipped commit have been filtered out.
The new "int *skipped_first" parameter tells us if the first commit
in the list has been skipped. Note that using this parameter also
changes the behavior of the function if the first commit is indeed
skipped. Because we assume that in this case we will want all the
filtered commits, not just the first one, even if "show_all" is not
set.
So using a not NULL "skipped_first" parameter really means that we
plan to choose to test another commit than the first non skipped
one if the first commit in the list is skipped. That in turn means
that, in case the first commit is skipped, we have to return a
fully filtered list.
