27472b5195 cat-file: fix a common "struct object_context" memory leak
Fix a memory leak where "cat-file" will leak the "path" member. See
e5fba602e5 (textconv: support for cat_file, 2010-06-15) for the code
that introduced the offending get_oid_with_context() call (called
get_sha1_with_context() at the time).

As a result we can mark several tests as passing with SANITIZE=leak
using "TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK=true".

As noted in dc944b65f1 (get_sha1_with_context: dynamically allocate
oc->path, 2017-05-19) callers must free the "path" member. That same
commit added the relevant free() to this function, but we weren't
catching cases where we'd return early.

245b948815 cat-file: use GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE in --(textconv|filters)
Change the cat_one_file() logic that calls get_oid_with_context()
under --textconv and --filters to use the GET_OID_ONLY_TO_DIE flag,
thus improving the error messaging emitted when e.g. <path> is missing
but <rev> is not.

To service the "cat-file" use-case we need to introduce a new
"GET_OID_REQUIRE_PATH" flag, otherwise it would exit early as soon as
a valid "HEAD" was resolved, but in the "cat-file" case being changed
we always need a valid revision and path.

This arguably makes the "<bad rev>:<bad path>" and "<bad
rev>:<good (in HEAD) path>" use cases worse, as we won't quote the
<path> component at the user anymore, but let's just use the existing
logic "git log" et al use for now. We can improve the messaging for
those cases as a follow-up for all callers.

68c69f90c8 cat-file tests: test messaging on bad objects/paths
Add tests for the output that's emitted when we disambiguate
<obj>:<path> in cat-file. This gives us a baseline for improving these
messages.

For e.g. "git blame" we'll emit:

    $ git blame HEAD:foo
    fatal: no such path 'HEAD:foo' in HEAD

But cat-file doesn't disambiguate these two cases, and just gives the
rather unhelpful:

    $ git cat-file --textconv HEAD:foo
    fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD:foo

4197361e39 Merge branch 'mg/more-textconv'
Make "git grep" and "git show" pay attention to --textconv when
dealing with blob objects.

* mg/more-textconv:
  grep: honor --textconv for the case rev:path
  grep: allow to use textconv filters
  t7008: demonstrate behavior of grep with textconv
  cat-file: do not die on --textconv without textconv filters
  show: honor --textconv for blobs
  diff_opt: track whether flags have been set explicitly
  t4030: demonstrate behavior of show with textconv

889c6f0e4d tests: use test_ln_s_add to remove SYMLINKS prerequisite (trivial cases)
There are many instances where the treatment of symbolic links in the
object model and the algorithms are tested, but where it is not
necessary to actually have a symbolic link in the worktree. Make
adjustments to the tests and remove the SYMLINKS prerequisite when
appropriate in trivial cases, where "trivial" means:

- merely a replacement of 'ln -s a b && git add b' by test_ln_s_add
  is needed;

- a test for symbolic link on the file system can be split off (and
  remains protected by SYMLINKS);

- existing code is equivalent to test_ln_s_add.

3ac21617b0 cat-file: do not die on --textconv without textconv filters
When a command is supposed to use textconv filters (by default or with
"--textconv") and none are configured then the blob is output without
conversion; the only exception to this rule is "cat-file --textconv".

Make it behave like the rest of textconv aware commands.

900647104e blame,cat-file --textconv: Don't assume mode is ``S_IFREF | 0664''
We need to get the correct mode when blame reads the source from the
working tree, the index, or trees.  This allows us to omit running
textconv filters on symbolic links.

ab3b7b9a6e blame,cat-file: Demonstrate --textconv is wrongly running converter on symlinks
git blame --textconv is wrongly calling the textconv filter on
symlinks: symlinks are stored as blobs whose content is the target of
the link, and blame calls the textconv filter on a temporary file
filled-in with the content of this blob.

For example:

    $ git blame -C -C regular-file.pdf
    Error: May not be a PDF file (continuing anyway)
    Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...
    Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
    Error: Couldn't read xref table
    Warning: program returned non-zero exit code #1
    fatal: unable to read files to diff

That errors come from pdftotext run on symlink.pdf being extracted to
/tmp/ with one-line plain-text content pointing to link destination.

So several failures are demonstrated here:

  - git cat-file --textconv :symlink.bin    # also HEAD:symlink.bin
  - git blame --textconv symlink.bin
  - git blame -C -C --textconv regular-file # but also looks on symlink.bin

At present they all fail with something like.

    E: /tmp/j3ELEs_symlink.bin is not "binary" file

NOTE: git diff doesn't try to textconv the pathnames, it runs the
textual diff without textconv, which is the expected behavior.

6517cf7de8 blame,cat-file: Prepare --textconv tests for correctly-failing conversion program
The textconv filter is sometimes incorrectly ran on a temporary file
whose content is the target of a symbolic link, instead of actual file
content. Prepare to test this by marking the content of the file to
convert with "bin:", and let the helper die if "bin:" is not found in
the file content.

NOTE: I've changed $@ to $1 in helper becase textconv program "should
take a single argument" (see Documentation/gitattributes.txt), so
making this more explicit makes sense and also helps to avoid
problems with feeding arguments to echo.
