Patrick Steinhardt 1204e1a824 builtin/clone: refuse local clones of unsafe repositories
When performing a local clone of a repository we end up either copying
or hardlinking the source repository into the target repository. This is
significantly more performant than if we were to use git-upload-pack(1)
and git-fetch-pack(1) to create the new repository and preserves both
disk space and compute time.

Unfortunately though, performing such a local clone of a repository that
is not owned by the current user is inherently unsafe:

  - It is possible that source files get swapped out underneath us while
    we are copying or hardlinking them. While we do perform some checks
    here to assert that we hardlinked the expected file, they cannot
    reliably thwart time-of-check-time-of-use (TOCTOU) style races. It
    is thus possible for an adversary to make us copy or hardlink
    unexpected files into the target directory.

    Ideally, we would address this by starting to use openat(3P),
    fstatat(3P) and friends. Due to platform compatibility with Windows
    we cannot easily do that though. Furthermore, the scope of these
    fixes would likely be quite broad and thus not fit for an embargoed
    security release.

  - Even if we handled TOCTOU-style races perfectly, hardlinking files
    owned by a different user into the target repository is not a good
    idea in general. It is possible for an adversary to rewrite those
    files to contain whatever data they want even after the clone has
    completed.

Address these issues by completely refusing local clones of a repository
that is not owned by the current user. This reuses our existing infra we
have in place via `ensure_valid_ownership()` and thus allows a user to
override the safety guard by adding the source repository path to the
"safe.directory" configuration.

This addresses CVE-2024-32020.
