Merge branch 'jk/blame-commit-label' into maint

"git blame HEAD -- missing" failed to correctly say "HEAD" when it
tried to say "No such path 'missing' in HEAD".

* jk/blame-commit-label:
  blame.c: fix garbled error message
  use xstrdup_or_null to replace ternary conditionals
  builtin/commit.c: use xstrdup_or_null instead of envdup
  builtin/apply.c: use xstrdup_or_null instead of null_strdup
  git-compat-util: add xstrdup_or_null helper
