merge-recursive: increase marker length with depth of recursion
Later patches in this series will modify file collision conflict
handling (e.g. from rename/add and rename/rename(2to1) conflicts) so
that multiply nested conflict markers can arise even before considering
conflicts in the virtual merge base. Including the virtual merge base
will provide a way to get triply (or higher) nested conflict markers.
This new way to get nested conflict markers will force the need for a
more general mechanism to extend the length of conflict markers in order
to differentiate between different nestings.
Along with this change to conflict marker length handling, we want to
make sure that we don't regress handling for other types of conflicts
with nested conflict markers. Add a more involved testcase using
merge.conflictstyle=diff3, where not only does the virtual merge base
contain conflicts, but its virtual merge base does as well (i.e. a case
with triply nested conflict markers). While there are multiple
reasonable ways to handle nested conflict markers in the virtual merge
base for this type of situation, the easiest approach that dovetails
well with the new needs for the file collision conflict handling is to
require that the length of the conflict markers increase with each
subsequent nesting.
Subsequent patches which change the rename/add and rename/rename(2to1)
conflict handling will modify the extra_marker_size flag appropriately
for their new needs.
