When specifying an absolute path, or a relative path pointing outside
the working tree, do not fail, but roll your own diffopt parsing,
and execute a --no-index diff.

diff sets the exit status to 0 when no changes were found, to 1
when changes were found, and 2 means error.
We imitate this to be able to use "git diff" in the test scripts.
(Actually, keeping in line with the rest of git, -1 is returned
on error, which corresponds to an exit status 255).
To find out if the diff is not empty, a member called
"found_changes" was introduced in struct diff_options, which is
set in builtin_diff() and fn_out_consume().

* 'jc/status' (early part):
run_diff_{files,index}(): update calling convention.
update-index: do not die too early in a read-only repository.
git-status: do not be totally useless in a read-only repository.
This is to resolve semantic conflict (which is not textual) that
changes the calling convention of run_diff_files() early.
With this flag and given two paths, git-diff-files behaves as a GNU diff
lookalike (plus the git goodies like --check, colour, etc.). This flag
is also available in git-diff. It also works outside of a git repository.
In addition, if git-diff{,-files} is called without revision or stage
parameter, and with exactly two paths at least one of which is not tracked,
the default is --no-index.
So, you can now say
git diff /etc/inittab /etc/fstab
and it actually works!
This also unifies the duplicated argument parsing between cmd_diff_files()
and builtin_diff_files().

When we do not trust executable bit from lstat(2), we copied
existing ce_mode bits without checking if the filesystem object
is a regular file (which is the only thing we apply the "trust
executable bit" business) nor if the blob in the index is a
regular file (otherwise, we should do the same as registering a
new regular file, which is to default non-executable).
Noticed by Johannes Sixt.

Warning: this changes the semantics.
This makes "git blame" without any positive rev to start digging
from the working tree copy, which is made into a fake commit
whose sole parent is the HEAD.
It also adds --contents <file> option to pretend as if the
working tree copy has the contents of the named file. You can
use '-' to make the command read from the standard input.
If you want the command to start annotating from the HEAD
commit, you need to explicitly give HEAD parameter.

This updates the way diffcore represents an unmerged pair
somewhat. It used to be that entries with mode=0 on both sides
were used to represent an unmerged pair, but now it has an
explicit flag. This is to allow diff-index --cached to report
the entry from the tree when the path is unmerged in the index.
This is used in updating "git reset <tree> -- <path>" to restore
absense of the path in the index from the tree.

This implements a 3-way diff between the HEAD commit, the state in the
index, and the working directory. This is like the n-way diff for a
merge, and uses much of the same code. It is invoked with the -c flag
to git-diff-index, which it already accepted and did nothing with.

This abstracts away the size of the hash values when copying them
from memory location to memory location, much as the introduction
of hashcmp abstracted away hash value comparsion.
A few call sites were using char* rather than unsigned char* so
I added the cast rather than open hashcpy to be void*. This is a
reasonable tradeoff as most call sites already use unsigned char*
and the existing hashcmp is also declared to be unsigned char*.
[jc: Splitted the patch to "master" part, to be followed by a
patch for merge-recursive.c which is not in "master" yet.
Fixed the cast in the latter hunk to combine-diff.c which was
wrong in the original.
Also converted ones left-over in combine-diff.c, diff-lib.c and
upload-pack.c ]

We've had this notion of a "object_list" for a long time, which eventually
grew a "name" member because some users (notably git-rev-list) wanted to
name each object as it is generated.
That object_list is great for some things, but it isn't all that wonderful
for others, and the "name" member is generally not used by everybody.
This patch splits the users of the object_list array up into two: the
traditional list users, who want the list-like format, and who don't
actually use or want the name. And another class of users that really used
the list as an extensible array, and generally wanted to name the objects.
The patch is fairly straightforward, but it's also biggish. Most of it
really just cleans things up: switching the revision parsing and listing
over to the array makes things like the builtin-diff usage much simpler
(we now see exactly how many members the array has, and we don't get the
objects reversed from the order they were on the command line).
One of the main reasons for doing this at all is that the malloc overhead
of the simple object list was actually pretty high, and the array is just
a lot denser. So this patch brings down memory usage by git-rev-list by
just under 3% (on top of all the other memory use optimizations) on the
mozilla archive.
It does add more lines than it removes, and more importantly, it adds a
whole new infrastructure for maintaining lists of objects, but on the
other hand, the new dynamic array code is pretty obvious. The change to
builtin-diff-tree.c shows a fairly good example of why an array interface
is sometimes more natural, and just much simpler for everybody.

Since structures with `flexible array members' are an incomplete datatype ANSI
C99 forbids creating instances of them. This patch removes such an instance
from `diff-lib.c' and replaces it with a pointer to a `struct
combine_diff_path'. Since all neccessary memory is allocated at once the number
of calls to `xmalloc' is not increased.

"diff-index -m" does not mean "do not ignore merges", but means
"pretend missing files match the index".
The previous round tried to address this, but failed because
setup_revisions() ate "-m" flag before the caller had a chance
to intervene.

This is the first installment to libify diff brothers.
The updated diff-files uses revision.c::setup_revisions()
infrastructure to parse its command line arguments, which means
the pathname arguments are checked more strictly than before.
The tests are adjusted to separate possibly missing paths from
the rest of arguments with double-dashes, to show the kosher
way.
As Linus pointed out, renaming diff.c to diff-lib.c was simply
stupid, so I am renaming it back. The new diff-lib.c is to
contain pieces extracted from diff brothers.
