5247b762d0 builtins: mark unused prefix parameters
All builtins receive a "prefix" parameter, but it is only useful if they
need to adjust filenames given by the user on the command line. For
builtins that do not even call parse_options(), they often don't look at
the prefix at all, and -Wunused-parameter complains.

Let's annotate those to silence the compiler warning. I gave a quick
scan of each of these cases, and it seems like they don't have anything
they _should_ be using the prefix for (i.e., there is no hidden bug that
we are missing). The only questionable cases I saw were:

  - in git-unpack-file, we create a tempfile which will always be at the
    root of the repository, even if the command is run from a subdir.
    Arguably this should be created in the subdir from which we're run
    (as we report the path only as a relative name). However, nobody has
    complained, and I'm hesitant to change something that is deep
    plumbing going back to April 2005 (though I think within our
    scripts, the sole caller in git-merge-one-file would be OK, as it
    moves to the toplevel itself).

  - in fetch-pack, local-filesystem remotes are taken as relative to the
    project root, not the current directory. So:

       git init server.git
       [...put stuff in server.git...]
       git init client.git
       cd client.git
       mkdir subdir
       cd subdir
       git fetch-pack ../../server.git ...

    won't work, as we quietly move to the top of the repository before
    interpreting the path (so "../server.git" would work). This is
    weird, but again, nobody has complained and this is how it has
    always worked. And this is how "git fetch" works, too. Plus it
    raises questions about how a configured remote like:

      git config remote.origin.url ../server.git

    should behave. I can certainly come up with a reasonable set of
    behavior, but it may not be worth stirring up complications in a
    plumbing tool.

So I've left the behavior untouched in both of those cases. If anybody
really wants to revisit them, it's easy enough to drop the UNUSED
marker. This commit is just about removing them as obstacles to turning
on -Wunused-parameter all the time.

42fa0cbfe0 credential: handle invalid arguments earlier
The git-credential command only takes one argument: the
operation to perform. If we don't have one, we complain
immediately. But if we have one that we don't recognize, we
don't notice until after we've read the credential from
stdin. This is likely to confuse a user invoking "git
credential -h", as the program will hang waiting for their
input before showing anything.

Let's detect this case early. Likewise, we never noticed
when there are extra arguments beyond the one we're
expecting. Let's catch this with the same conditional.

Note that we don't need to handle "--help" similarly,
because the git wrapper does this before even calling
cmd_credential().

2d6dc182b8 git credential fill: output the whole 'struct credential'
Instead of outputing only the username and password, print all the
attributes, even those that already appeared in the input.

This is closer to what the C API does, and allows one to take the exact
output of "git credential fill" as input to "git credential approve" or
"git credential reject".

e30b2feb1b add 'git credential' plumbing command
The credential API is in C, and not available to scripting languages.
Expose the functionalities of the API by wrapping them into a new
plumbing command "git credentials".

In other words, replace the internal "test-credential" by an official Git
command.
