Junio C Hamano b182658e3e merge: introduce {copy|clear}_merge_options()
When mostly the same set of options are to be used to perform
multiple merges, one instance of the merge_options structure may
want to be created and used by copying from the same template
instance.  We saw such a use recently in "git merge-tree".

Let's make the pattern official by introducing copy_merge_options()
as a supported way to make a copy of the structure, and also give
clear_merge_options() to release any resources held by a copied
instance.  Currently we only make a shallow copy, so the former is a
mere structure assignment while the latter is a no-op, but this may
change in the future as the members of merge_options structure
evolve.
