If a config has several files, we need to check all of them before we
can say that a variable doesn't exist.

"git_config_backend" have been renamed to "git_config_file", which
implements a generic interface to access a configuration file -- be it
either on disk, from a DB or whatever mumbojumbo.
I think this makes more sense.
Configuration options can come from different sources. Currently,
there is only support for reading them from a flat file, but it might
make sense to read it from a database at some point.
Move the parsing code into src/config_file.c and create an include
file include/git2/config_backend.h to allow for other backends to be
developed.

The section and variable names use different rules, so store them as
two different variables internally.
This will simplify the configuration-writing code as well later on,
but even with parsing, the code is simpler.
Take this opportunity to add a variable to the list directly when
parsing instead of passing through config_set.
long int is a safer type than int unless the user knows that the
variable is going to be quite small.
The code has been reworked to use strtol instead of the more
complicated sscanf.

Many error paths freed their local data althought it is freed later on
when the end of the function notices that there was an error. This can
cause double frees and invalid memory access.

Make cvar_free return void instad of the next element, as it was
mostly a hack to make cvar_list_free shorter but it's now using the
list macros.
Also check if the input is NULL and return immediately in that case.

There is no need to keep config file in memory until the the
configuration is freed. Free the buffer immediately after the
configuration has been parsed.

If a variable name appears on its own in a line, it's assumed the
value is true. Store the variable name as NULL in that case.

If a line ends at EOF there is no need to check for the newline
character and doing so will cause us to read memory beyond the
allocatd memory as we check for the Windows-style new-line, which is
two bytes long.

If a variable value has the traditional continuation character (\) as
the last non-space character in the line, then we continue reading the
value on the next line.
Using more than two lines is also supported.

Make header and variable parse functions use their own buffers instead
of giving them the line they need to read as a parameter which they
mostly ignore.
This is in preparation for multiline configuration variables.

A variable name is stored internally with its section the way it
appeared in the configuration file in order to have the information
about what parts are case-sensitive inline.
Really implement parse_section_header_ext and move the assignment of
variables to config_parse.
The variable name matching is now done in a case-away way by
cvar_name_match and cvar_section_match. Before the user sees it, it's
normalized to the two- or three-dot version.

Such a list preserves the order the variables were first read in which
will be useful later for merging different data-sets. Furthermore,
reading and writing out the same configuration should not reorganize
the variables, which could happen when iterating through all the items
in a hash table.
A hash table is overkill for this small a data-set anyway.

git_config_open shouldn't have to initialise variables that are only
used inside config_parse and its callees.
Signed-off-by: Carlos Martín Nieto <cmn@elego.de>
Config variables should be interpreted at run-time, as we don't know if a
zero means false or zero, or if yes means true or "yes".
As a variable has no intrinsic type, git_cvtype is gone and the public
API takes care of enforcing a few rules.

These functions can be used to query or modify the variables in a
given configuration. No sanity checking is done on the variable names.
This is mostly meant as an API preview.

If cfg_readline consumes the line, then parse_section_header will read
past it and if we read a character, parse_variable won't have the full
name.
This solution is a bit hackish, but it's the simplest way to get the
code to parse correctly.

Save the location of the name in section_out instead of returning it
as an int. Use the return code to signal success or failure.
