Implement the `git_worktree_prune` function. This function can be
used to delete working trees from a repository. According to the
flags passed to it, it can either delete the working tree's
gitdir only or both gitdir and the working directory.
Working trees support locking by creating a file `locked` inside
the tree's gitdir with an optional reason inside. Support this
feature by adding functions to get and set the locking status.
Add a new function that checks wether a given `struct
git_worktree` is valid. The validation includes checking if the
gitdir, parent directory and common directory are present.
Introduce a new `struct git_worktree`, which holds information
about a possible working tree connected to a repository.
Introduce functions to allow opening working trees for a
repository.
The commondir variable stores the path to the common directory.
The common directory is used to store objects and references
shared across multiple repositories. A current use case is the
newly introduced `git worktree` feature, which sets up a separate
working copy, where the backing git object store and references
are pointed to by the common directory.
Added `git_repository_submodule_cache_all` to initialze a cache of
submodules on the repository so that operations looking up N
submodules are O(N) and not O(N^2). Added a
`git_repository_submodule_cache_clear` function to remove the cache.
Also optimized the function that loads all submodules as it was itself
O(N^2) w.r.t the number of submodules, having to loop through the
`.gitmodules` file once per submodule. I changed it to process the
`.gitmodules` file once, into a map.

The function to write trees allocates a new buffer for each tree.
This causes problems with performance when performing a lot
of actions involving writing trees, e.g. when doing many merges.
Fix the issue by instead handing in a shared buffer, which is then
re-used across the calls without having to re-allocate between
calls.
Update the `GIT_SUBMODULE_UPDATE_OPTIONS_INIT` definition with the
correct values after removing `clone_checkout_strategy` in
`git_submodule_update_options`.
It changed from implementation-defined to git's default sorting, as there are
systems (e.g. rebase) which depend on this order. Also specify more explicitly
how you can get git's "date-order".
When creating and printing diffs, deal with binary deltas that have
binary data specially, versus diffs that have a binary file but lack the
actual binary data.
Introduce GIT_OPT_ENABLE_SYMBOLIC_REF_TARGET_VALIDATION option.
Setting this option to 0 allows
validation of a symbolic ref's target to be bypassed.
This option is enabled by default.
This mechanism is added primarily to address a discrepancy between git
behaviour and libgit2 behaviour, whereby the former allows the symbolic
ref target to carry an arbitrary string and the latter does not, so:
$ git symbolic-ref refs/heads/foo bar
$ cat .git/refs/heads/foo
ref: bar
where as attempting the same via libgit2 raises an error:
The given reference name 'bar' is not valid
this mechanism also allows those that might want to make use of
git's more lenient treatment of symbolic ref targets to do so.
Support reading and writing index v4. Index v4 uses a very simple
compression scheme for pathnames, but is otherwise similar to index v3.

After 1cd65991, we were passing a pointer to an `unsigned long` to
a function that now expected a pointer to a `size_t`. These types
differ on 64-bit Windows, which means that we trash the stack.
Use `size_t`s in the packbuilder to avoid this.
git_repository_open_ext provides parameters for the start path, whether
to search across filesystems, and what ceiling directories to stop at.
git commands have standard environment variables and defaults for each
of those, as well as various other parameters of the repository. To
avoid duplicate environment variable handling in users of libgit2, add a
GIT_REPOSITORY_OPEN_FROM_ENV flag, which makes git_repository_open_ext
automatically handle the appropriate environment variables. Commands
that intend to act just like those built into git itself can use this
flag to get the expected default behavior.
git_repository_open_ext with the GIT_REPOSITORY_OPEN_FROM_ENV flag
respects $GIT_DIR, $GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM,
$GIT_CEILING_DIRECTORIES, $GIT_INDEX_FILE, $GIT_NAMESPACE,
$GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY, and $GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES. In the
future, when libgit2 gets worktree support, git_repository_open_env will
also respect $GIT_WORK_TREE and $GIT_COMMON_DIR; until then,
git_repository_open_ext with this flag will error out if either
$GIT_WORK_TREE or $GIT_COMMON_DIR is set.
GIT_REPOSITORY_OPEN_NO_SEARCH does not search up through parent
directories, but still tries the specified path both directly and with
/.git appended. GIT_REPOSITORY_OPEN_BARE avoids appending /.git, but
opens the repository in bare mode even if it has a working directory.
To support the semantics git uses when given $GIT_DIR in the
environment, provide a new GIT_REPOSITORY_OPEN_NO_DOTGIT flag to not try
appending /.git.
