When we see a line from the client like "command=ls-refs", we parse
everything after the equals sign as a capability, which we check against
our capabilities table. If we don't recognize the command (e.g.,
"command=foo"), we'll reject it.
But in parse_command(), we use the same get_capability() parser for
parsing non-command lines. So if we see "command=ls-refs=foo", we will
feed "ls-refs=foo" to get_capability(), which will say "OK, that's
ls-refs, with value 'foo'". But then we simply ignore the value
entirely.
The client is violating the spec here, which says:
command = PKT-LINE("command=" key LF)
key = 1*(ALPHA | DIGIT | "-_")
I.e., the key is not even allowed to have an equals sign in it. Whereas
a real non-command capability does allow a value:
capability = PKT-LINE(key[=value] LF)
So by reusing the same get_capability() parser, we are mixing up the
"key" and "capability" tokens. However, since that parser tells us
whether it saw an "=", we can still use it; we just need to reject any
input that produces a non-NULL value field.
The current behavior isn't really hurting anything (the client should
never send such a request, and if it does, we just ignore the "value"
part). But since it does violate the spec, let's tighten it up to
prevent any surprising behavior.

We've never documented the fact that a client can provide multiple
ref-prefix capabilities. Let's describe the behavior.
We also never discussed the "best effort" nature of the prefixes. The
client side of git.git has always treated them this way, filtering the
result with local patterns. And indeed any client must do this, because
the prefix patterns are not sufficient to express the usual refspecs
(and so for "foo" we ask for "refs/heads/foo", "refs/tags/foo", and so
on).
So this may be considered a change in the spec with respect to client
expectations / requirements, but it's mostly codifying existing
behavior.

Because each "ref-prefix" capability from the client comes in its own
pkt-line, there's no limit to the number of them that a misbehaving
client may send. We read them all into a strvec, which means the client
can waste arbitrary amounts of our memory by just sending us "ref-prefix
foo" over and over.
One possible solution is to just drop the connection when the limit is
reached. If we set it high enough, then only misbehaving or malicious
clients would hit it. But "high enough" is vague, and it's unfriendly if
we guess wrong and a legitimate client hits this.
But we can do better. Since supporting the ref-prefix capability is
optional anyway, the client has to further cull the response based on
their own patterns. So we can simply ignore the patterns once we cross a
certain threshold. Note that we have to ignore _all_ patterns, not just
the ones past our limit (since otherwise we'd send too little data).
The limit here is fairly arbitrary, and probably much higher than anyone
would need in practice. It might be worth limiting it further, if only
because we check it linearly (so with "m" local refs and "n" patterns,
we do "m * n" string comparisons). But if we care about optimizing this,
an even better solution may be a more advanced data structure anyway.
I didn't bother making the limit configurable, since it's so high and
since Git should behave correctly in either case. It wouldn't be too
hard to do, but it makes both the code and documentation more complex.

We collect the set of capabilities the client sends us in a strvec.
While this is usually small, there's no limit to the number of
capabilities the client can send us (e.g., they could just send us
"agent" pkt-lines over and over, and we'd keep adding them to the list).
Since all code has been converted away from using this list, let's get
rid of it. This avoids a potential attack where clients waste our
memory.
Note that we do have to replace it with a flag, because some of the
flush-packet logic checks whether we've seen any valid commands or keys.

Rather than pulling the session-id string from the list of collected
capabilities, we can handle it as soon as we receive it. This gets us
closer to dropping the collected list entirely.
The behavior should be the same, with one exception. Previously if the
client sent us multiple session-id lines, we'd report only the first.
Now we'll pass each one along to trace2. This shouldn't matter in
practice, since clients shouldn't do that (and if they do, it's probably
sensible to log them all).
As this removes the last caller of the static has_capability(), we can
remove it, as well (and in fact we must to avoid -Wunused-function
complaining).

We get any "object-format" specified by the client by searching for it
in the collected list of capabilities the client sent. We can instead
just handle it as soon as they send it. This is slightly more efficient,
and gets us one step closer to dropping that collected list.
Note that we do still have to do our final hash check after receiving
all capabilities (because they might not have sent an object-format line
at all, and we still have to check that the default matches our
repository algorithm). Since the check_algorithm() function would now be
down to a single if() statement, I've just inlined it in its only
caller.
There should be no change of behavior here, except for two
broken-protocol cases:
- if the client sends multiple conflicting object-format capabilities
(which they should not), we'll now choose the last one rather than
the first. We could also detect and complain about the duplicates
quite easily now, which we could not before, but I didn't do so
here.
- if the client sends a bogus "object-format" with no equals sign,
we'll now say so, rather than "unknown object format: ''"

We have a capabilities table that tells us what we should tell the
client we are capable of, and what to do when a client gives us a
particular command (e.g., "command=ls-refs"). But it doesn't tell us
what to do when the client sends us back a capability (e.g.,
"object-format=sha256"). We just collect them all in a strvec and hope
somebody can use them later.
Instead, let's provide a function pointer in the table to act on these.
This will eventually help us avoid collecting the strings, which will be
more efficient and less prone to mischief.
Using the new method is optional, which helps in two ways:
- we can move existing capabilities over to this new system gradually
in individual commits
- some capabilities we don't actually do anything with anyway. For
example, the client is free to say "agent=git/1.2.3" to us, but we
do not act on the information in any way.

When the client sends v2 capabilities, they may be simple, like:
foo
or have a value like:
foo=bar
(all of the current capabilities actually expect a value, but the
protocol allows for boolean ones).
We use get_capability() to make sure the client's pktline matches a
capability. In doing so, we parse enough to see the "=" and the value
(if any), but we immediately forget it. Nobody cares for now, because they end
up parsing the values out later using has_capability(). But in
preparation for changing that, let's pass back a pointer so the callers
know what we found.
Note that unlike has_capability(), we'll return NULL for a "simple"
capability. Distinguishing these will be useful for some future patches.

The is_command() function not only tells us whether the pktline is a
valid command string, but it also parses out the command (and complains
if we see a duplicate). Let's rename it to make those extra functions
a bit more obvious.
