When mergetool is run without path limiters it loops
over each entry in 'git ls-files -u'. This includes
autoresolved paths.
Teach mergetool to only merge files listed in 'rerere status'
when rerere is enabled.
There are some subtle but harmless changes in behavior.
We now call cd_to_toplevel when no paths are given.
We do this because 'rerere status' paths are always relative
to the root. This is beneficial for the non-rerere use as
well in that mergetool now runs against all unmerged files
regardless of the current directory.
This also slightly tweaks the output when run without paths
to be more readable.
The old output:
Merging the files: foo
bar
baz
The new output:
Merging:
foo
bar
baz

The previous fix to mergetool to use checkout-index instead of cat-file
broke running mergetool anywhere except the root of the repository.
This fixes it by using the correct relative paths for temporary files
and index paths.

Previously, git mergetool used cat-file which does not perform git to
worktree conversion. This changes mergetool to use git checkout-index
instead which means that the temporary files used for mergetool use the
correct line endings for the platform.

This patch changes every occurrence of "! git" -- with the meaning
that a git call has to gracefully fail -- into "test_must_fail git".
This is useful to
- make sure the test does not fail because of a signal,
e.g. SIGSEGV, and
- advertise the use of "test_must_fail" for new tests.
