push: fix --dry-run to not push submodules
Teach push to respect the --dry-run option when configured to
recursively push submodules 'on-demand'. This is done by passing the
--dry-run flag to the child process which performs a push for a
submodules when performing a dry-run.
In order to preserve good user experience, the additional check for
unpushed submodules is skipped during a dry-run when
--recurse-submodules=on-demand. The check is skipped because the submodule
pushes were performed as dry-runs and this check would always fail as the
submodules would still need to be pushed.

remote-curl: don't hang when a server dies before any output
In the event that a HTTP server closes the connection after giving a
200 but before giving any packets, we don't want to hang forever
waiting for a response that will never come. Instead, we should die
immediately.
One case where this happens is when attempting to fetch a dangling
object by its object name. In this case, the server dies before
sending any data. Prior to this patch, fetch-pack would wait for
data from the server, and remote-curl would wait for fetch-pack,
causing a deadlock.
Despite this patch, there is other possible malformed input that could
cause the same deadlock (e.g. a half-finished pktline, or a pktline but
no trailing flush). There are a few possible solutions to this:
1. Allowing remote-curl to tell fetch-pack about the EOF (so that
fetch-pack could know that no more data is coming until it says
something else). This is tricky because an out-of-band signal would
be required, or the http response would have to be re-framed inside
another layer of pkt-line or something.
2. Make remote-curl understand some of the protocol. It turns out
that in addition to understanding pkt-line, it would need to watch for
ack/nak. This is somewhat fragile, as information about the protocol
would end up in two places. Also, pkt-lines which are already at the
length limit would need special handling.
Both of these solutions would require a fair amount of work, whereas
this hack is easy and solves at least some of the problem.
Still to do: it would be good to give a better error message
than "fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly".

alternates: re-allow relative paths from environment
Commit 670c359da (link_alt_odb_entry: handle normalize_path
errors, 2016-10-03) regressed the handling of relative paths
in the GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES variable. It's not
entirely clear this was ever meant to work, but it _has_
worked for several years, so this commit restores the
original behavior.
When we get a path in GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES, we
add it the path to the list of alternate object directories
as if it were found in objects/info/alternates, but with one
difference: we do not provide the link_alt_odb_entry()
function with a base for relative paths. That function
doesn't turn it into an absolute path, and we end up feeding
the relative path to the strbuf_normalize_path() function.
Most relative paths break out of the top-level directory
(e.g., "../foo.git/objects"), and thus normalizing fails.
Prior to 670c359da, we simply ignored the error, and due to
the way normalize_path_copy() was implemented it happened to
return the original path in this case. We then accessed the
alternate objects using this relative path.
By storing the relative path in the alt_odb list, the path
is relative to wherever we happen to be at the time we do an
object lookup. That means we look from $GIT_DIR in a bare
repository, and from the top of the worktree in a non-bare
repository.
If this were being designed from scratch, it would make
sense to pick a stable location (probably $GIT_DIR, or even
the object directory) and use that as the relative base,
turning the result into an absolute path. However, given
the history, at this point the minimal fix is to match the
pre-670c359da behavior.
We can do this simply by ignoring the error when we have no
relative base and using the original value (which we now
reliably have, thanks to strbuf_normalize_path()).
That still leaves us with a relative path that foils our
duplicate detection, and may act strangely if we ever
chdir() later in the process. We could solve that by storing
an absolute path based on getcwd(). That may be a good
future direction; for now we'll do just the minimum to fix
the regression.
The new t5615 script demonstrates the fix in its final three
tests. Since we didn't have any tests of the alternates
environment variable at all, it also adds some tests of
absolute paths.

t0021: fix filehandle usage on older perl
The rot13-filter.pl script calls methods on implicitly
defined filehandles (STDOUT, and the result of an open()
call). Prior to perl 5.13, these methods are not
automatically loaded, and perl will complain with:
Can't locate object method "flush" via package "IO::Handle"
Let's explicitly load IO::File (which inherits from
IO::Handle). That's more than we need for just "flush", but
matches what perl has done since:

t0021: use $PERL_PATH for rot13-filter.pl
The rot13-filter.pl script hardcodes "#!/usr/bin/perl", and
does not respect $PERL_PATH at all. That is a problem if the
system does not have perl at that path, or if it has a perl
that is too old to run a complicated script like the
rot13-filter (but PERL_PATH points to a more modern one).
We can fix this by using write_script() to create a new copy
of the script with the correct #!-line. In theory we could
move the whole script inside t0021-conversion.sh rather than
having it as an auxiliary file, but it's long enough that
it just makes things harder to read.
As a bonus, we can stop using the full path to the script in
the filter-process config we add (because the trash
directory is in our PATH). Not only is this shorter, but it
sidesteps any shell-quoting issues. The original was broken
when $TEST_DIRECTORY contained a space, because it was
interpolated in the outer script.

t0021: put $TEST_ROOT in $PATH
We create a rot13.sh script in the trash directory, but need
to call it by its full path when we have moved our cwd to
another directory. Let's just put $TEST_ROOT in our $PATH so
that the script is always found.
This is a minor convenience for rot13.sh, but will be a
major one when we switch rot13-filter.pl to a script in the
same directory, as it means we will not have to deal with
shell quoting inside the filter-process config.

sha1_file: stop opening files with O_NOATIME
When we open object files, we try to do so with O_NOATIME.
This dates back to 144bde78e9 (Use O_NOATIME when opening
the sha1 files., 2005-04-23), which is an optimization to
avoid creating a bunch of dirty inodes when we're accessing
many objects. But a few things have changed since then:
1. In June 2005, git learned about packfiles, which means
we would do a lot fewer atime updates (rather than one
per object access, we'd generally get one per packfile).
2. In late 2006, Linux learned about "relatime", which is
generally the default on modern installs. So
performance around atimes updates is a non-issue there
these days.
All the world isn't Linux, but as it turns out, Linux
is the only platform to implement O_NOATIME in the
first place.
So it's very unlikely that this code is helping anybody
these days.

git_open_cloexec(): use fcntl(2) w/ FD_CLOEXEC fallback
A platform might not support open(2) with O_CLOEXEC but may support
telling the same with fcntl(2) to flip FD_CLOEXEC bit on on an open
file descriptor. It is a fallback that is inherently racy and this
may not be worth doing, though.

cocci: avoid self-references in object_id transformations
The object_id functions oid_to_hex, oid_to_hex_r, oidclr, oidcmp, and
oidcpy are defined as wrappers of their legacy counterparts sha1_to_hex,
sha1_to_hex_r, hashclr, hashcmp, and hashcpy, respectively. Make sure
that the Coccinelle transformations for converting legacy function calls
are not applied to these wrappers themselves, which would result in
tautological declarations.

Overflow is defined for unsigned integers, but not for signed ones.
Wrap around explicitly for the new ring-buffer in find_unique_abbrev()
