reference_rename used to delete an old reflog file when renaming a
reference to not confuse git.git. Don't do this anymore but let the user
take care of writing a reflog entry.

This new version of the references code is significantly faster and
hopefully easier to read.
External API stays the same. A new method `git_reference_reload()` has
been added to force updating a memory reference from disk. In-memory
references are no longer updated automagically -- this was killing us.
If a reference is deleted externally and the user doesn't reload the
memory object, nothing critical happens: any functions using that
reference should fail gracefully (e.g. deletion, renaming, and so on).
All generated references from the API are read only and must be free'd
by the user. There is no reference counting and no traces of generated
references are kept in the library.
There is no longer an internal representation for references. There is
only one reference struct `git_reference`, and symbolic/oid targets are
stored inside an union.
Packfile references are stored using an optimized struct with flex array
for reference names. This should significantly reduce the memory cost of
loading the packfile from disk.
git_reference_rename() didn't properly cleanup old references given by
the user to not break some ugly old tests. Since references don't point
to libgit's internal cache anymore we can cleanup git_reference_rename()
to be somewhat less messy.

Currently libgit2 shares pointers to its internal reference cache with
the user. This leads to several problems like invalidation of reference
pointers when reordering the cache or manipulation of the cache from
user side.
Give each user its own git_reference instead of leaking the internal
representation (struct reference).
Add the following new API functions:
* git_reference_free
* git_reference_is_packed

The following files now have 0444 permissions:
- loose objects
- pack indexes
- pack files
- packs downloaded by fetch
- packs downloaded by the HTTP transport
And the following files now have 0666 permissions:
- config files
- repository indexes
- reflogs
- refs
This brings libgit2 more in line with Git.
Note that git_filebuf_commit() and git_filebuf_commit_at() have both
gained a new mode parameter.
The latter change fixes an important issue where filebufs created with
GIT_FILEBUF_TEMPORARY received 0600 permissions (due to mkstemp(3)
usage). Now we chmod() the file before renaming it into place.
Tests have been added to confirm that new commit, tag, and tree
objects are created with the right permissions. I don't have access to
Windows, so for now I've guarded the tests with "#ifndef GIT_WIN32".
6c8b458 removed an "unused" variable needed for git_hashtable_insert2(),
causing a segfault in reference_rename(). Instead, use
git_hashtable_insert().

reference_rename() recently failed when renaming an existing reference
refs/heads/foo/bar -> refs/heads/foo because of a change in the
underlying functions / error codes. Fixes#412.

There were quite a few places were spaces were being used instead of
tabs. Try to catch them all. This should hopefully not break anything.
Except for `git blame`. Oh well.
1. The license header is technically not valid if it doesn't have a
copyright signature.
2. The COPYING file has been updated with the different licenses used in
the project.
3. The full GPLv2 header in each file annoys me.
We need to do an unsigned comparison, as otherwise UTF-8 characters
might look like they have the sign bit set and the check will fail.

In reference_read we stat a file and then call futils which stats it
again. Use git_futils_readbuffer_updated to avoid the extra stat
call. This introduces another parameter which is used to tell the
caller whether the file was read or not.
Modify the callers to take advantage of this new feature. This change
removes ~140 stat calls from the test suite.

Current implementation of git_reference_rename() removes 'ref' from
loose cache, but not frees it. In result 'ref' is not reachable any more
and we have got memory leak.
Let's re-add 'ref' with corrected name to loose cache instead of
'new_ref' and free 'new_ref' properly.
'rollback' path seems leak too. git_reference_rename() need to be rewritten
for proper resource management.

Drop the GLibc implementation of Merge Sort and replace it with Timsort.
The algorithm has been tuned to work on arrays of pointers (void **),
so there's no longer a need to abstract the byte-width of each element
in the array.
All the comparison callbacks now take pointers-to-elements, not
pointers-to-pointers, so there's now one less level of dereferencing.
E.g.
int index_cmp(const void *a, const void *b)
{
- const git_index_entry *entry_a = *(const git_index_entry **)(a);
+ const git_index_entry *entry_a = (const git_index_entry *)(a);
The result is up to a 40% speed-up when sorting vectors. Memory usage
remains lineal.
A new `bsearch` implementation has been added, whose callback also
supplies pointer-to-elements, to uniform the Vector API again.
`git_futils_rmdir_r`: rename, clean up.
`git_reference_rename`: cleanup. Do not use 3x4096 buffers on the stack
or things will get ugly very fast. We can reuse the same buffer.
So far libgit2 didn't handle the following scenarios:
* Rename of reference m -> m/m
* Rename of reference n/n -> n
Fixed.
Since we don't write reflogs, we have to delete any old reflog for the
renamed reference. Otherwise git.git will possibly fail when it finds
invalid logs.

Cleaned up the structure of the whole OS-abstraction layer.
fileops.c now contains a set of utility methods for file management used
by the library. These are abstractions on top of the original POSIX
calls.
There's a new file called `posix.c` that contains
emulations/reimplementations of all the POSIX calls the library uses.
These are prefixed with `p_`. There's a specific posix file for each
platform (win32 and unix).
All the path-related methods have been moved from `utils.c` to `path.c`
and have their own prefix.
The assertion in line 360 was there to check that only loose refs were
being written as loose, but there are times when we need to re-write a
packed reference as loose.
A bunch of redundant methods have been removed from the external API.
- All the reference/tag creation methods with `_f` are gone. The force
flag is now passed as an argument to the normal create methods.
- All the different commit creation methods are gone; commit creation
now always requires a `git_commit` pointer for parents and a `git_tree`
pointer for tree, to ensure that corrupted commits cannot be generated.
- All the different tag creation methods are gone; tag creation now
always requires a `git_object` pointer to ensure that tags are not
created to inexisting objects.
There is no need to store the format outselves, as the library
provides git_filebuf_printf which takes care of the formatting itself.
Also get rid of an use of strcat + strcpy which is always a nice
thing.
