Separating out the implementation of the handshake when starting a
long-running subprocess (for example, as is done for a clean/smudge
filter) was done in commit fa64a2fdbe
("sub-process: refactor
handshake to common function", 2017-07-26), but its documentation still
resides in gitattributes. Split out the documentation as well.

/*
|
|
* The sub-process API makes it possible to run background sub-processes
|
|
* for the entire lifetime of a Git invocation. If Git needs to communicate
|
|
* with an external process multiple times, then this can reduces the process
|
|
* invocation overhead. Git and the sub-process communicate through stdin and
|
|
* stdout.
|
|
*
|
|
* The sub-processes are kept in a hashmap by command name and looked up
|
|
* via the subprocess_find_entry function. If an existing instance can not
|
|
* be found then a new process should be created and started. When the
|
|
* parent git command terminates, all sub-processes are also terminated.
|
|
*
|
|
* This API is based on the run-command API.
