Some more code and doc clarification around "git push".

push: don't get a full remote object
push: only check same_remote when needed
push: remove trivial function
push: remove redundant check
push: factor out the typical case
push: get rid of all the setup_push_* functions
push: trivial simplifications
push: make setup_push_* return the dst
push: only get the branch when needed

"git cat-file --batch-all-objects"" misbehaved when "--batch" is in
use and did not ask for certain object traits.
* zh/cat-file-batch-fix:
cat-file: merge two block into one
cat-file: handle trivial --batch format with --batch-all-objects
When we cannot figure out how wide the terminal is, we use a
fallback value of 80 ourselves (which cannot be avoided), but when
we run the pager, we export it in COLUMNS, which forces the pager
to use the hardcoded value, even when the pager is perfectly
capable to figure it out itself. Stop exporting COLUMNS when we
fall back on the hardcoded default value for our own use.
* js/stop-exporting-bogus-columns:
pager: avoid setting COLUMNS when we're guessing its value
On Windows, mergetool has been taught to find kdiff3.exe just like
it finds winmerge.exe.
* ms/mergetools-kdiff3-on-windows:
mergetools/kdiff3: make kdiff3 work on Windows too
Output from some of our tests were affected by the width of the
terminal that they were run in, which has been corrected by
exporting a fixed value in the COLUMNS environment.
* ab/fix-columns-to-80-during-tests:
test-lib.sh: set COLUMNS=80 for --verbose repeatability
Recent update to completion script (in contrib/) broke those who
use the __git_complete helper to define completion to their custom
command.

completion: bash: fix late declaration of __git_cmd_idx
Some test scripts assumed that readlink(1) was universally
installed and available, which is not the case.

t: use portable wrapper for readlink(1)
The side-band demultiplexer that is used to display progress output
from the remote end did not clear the line properly when the end of

comes with test clean-ups.
* jx/sideband-cleanup:
test: refactor to use "get_abbrev_oid" to get abbrev oid
test: refactor to use "test_commit" to create commits
test: compare raw output, not mangle tabs and spaces
sideband: don't lose clear-to-eol at packet boundary
We broke "GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t?000" to skip certain tests in recent
update, which got fixed.

test-lib: avoid accidental globbing in match_pattern_list()
Work around inefficient glob substitution in older versions of bash
by rewriting parts of a test.
