As of this commit, the canonical way to retreive an ANSI-compatible
color escape sequence from a configuration file is with the
`--get-color` action.
This is to allow Git to "fall back" on a default value for the color
should the given section not exist in the specified configuration(s).
With the addition of `--default`, this is no longer needed since:
$ git config --default red --type=color core.section
will be have exactly as:
$ git config --get-color core.section red
For consistency, let's introduce `--type=color` and encourage its use
with `--default` together over `--get-color` alone.

In preparation for adding `--type=color` to the `git-config(1)` builtin,
let's introduce a color parsing utility, `git_config_color` in a similar
fashion to `git_config_<type>`.

For some use cases, callers of the `git-config(1)` builtin would like to
fallback to default values when the variable asked for does not exist.
In addition, users would like to use existing type specifiers to ensure
that values are parsed correctly when they do exist in the
configuration.
For example, to fetch a value without a type specifier and fallback to
`$fallback`, the following is required:
$ git config core.foo || echo "$fallback"
This is fine for most values, but can be tricky for difficult-to-express
`$fallback`'s, like ANSI color codes.
This motivates `--get-color`, which is a one-off exception to the normal
type specifier rules wherein a user specifies both the configuration
variable and an optional fallback. Both are formatted according to their
type specifier, which eases the burden on the user to ensure that values
are correctly formatted.
This commit (and those following it in this series) aim to eventually
replace `--get-color` with a consistent alternative. By introducing
`--default`, we allow the `--get-color` action to be promoted to a
`--type=color` type specifier, retaining the "fallback" behavior via the
`--default` flag introduced in this commit.
For example, we aim to replace:
$ git config --get-color variable [default] [...]
with:
$ git config --default default --type=color variable [...]
Values filled by `--default` behave exactly as if they were present in
the affected configuration file; they will be parsed by type specifiers
without the knowledge that they are not themselves present in the
configuration.
Specifically, this means that the following will work:
$ git config --int --default 1M does.not.exist
1048576
In subsequent commits, we will offer `--type=color`, which (in
conjunction with `--default`) will be sufficient to replace
`--get-color`.

`git config` has long allowed the ability for callers to provide a 'type
specifier', which instructs `git config` to (1) ensure that incoming
values can be interpreted as that type, and (2) that outgoing values are
canonicalized under that type.
In another series, we propose to extend this functionality with
`--type=color` and `--default` to replace `--get-color`.
However, we traditionally use `--color` to mean "colorize this output",
instead of "this value should be treated as a color".
Currently, `git config` does not support this kind of colorization, but
we should be careful to avoid squatting on this option too soon, so that
`git config` can support `--color` (in the traditional sense) in the
future, if that is desired.
In this patch, we support `--type=<int|bool|bool-or-int|...>` in
addition to `--int`, `--bool`, and etc. This allows the aforementioned
upcoming patch to support querying a color value with a default via
`--type=color --default=...`, without squandering `--color`.
We retain the historic behavior of complaining when multiple,
legacy-style `--<type>` flags are given, as well as extend this to
conflicting new-style `--type=<type>` flags. `--int --type=int` (and its
commutative pair) does not complain, but `--bool --type=int` (and its
commutative pair) does.

Internally, we represent `git config`'s type specifiers as a bitset
using OPT_BIT. 'bool' is 1<<0, 'int' is 1<<1, and so on. This technique
allows for the representation of multiple type specifiers in the `int
types` field, but this multi-representation is left unused.
In fact, `git config` will not accept multiple type specifiers at a
time, as indicated by:
$ git config --int --bool some.section
error: only one type at a time.
This patch uses `OPT_SET_INT` to prefer the _last_ mentioned type
specifier, so that the above command would instead be valid, and a
synonym of:
$ git config --bool some.section
This change is motivated by two urges: (1) it does not make sense to
represent a singular type specifier internally as a bitset, only to
complain when there are multiple bits in the set. `OPT_SET_INT` is more
well-suited to this task than `OPT_BIT` is. (2) a future patch will
introduce `--type=<type>`, and we would like not to complain in the
following situation:
$ git config --int --type=int

This fixes a regression introduced in 2e612731b5 (submodule: port
submodule subcommand 'deinit' from shell to C, 2018-01-15), when
handling pathspecs that do not exist gracefully. This restores the
historic behavior of reporting the pathspec as unknown and returning
instead of reporting a bug.

In 1ada5020b3 ("stash: use stash_push for no verb form", 2017-02-28),
when the pathspec argument was introduced in 'git stash', that was also
documented. However I forgot to remove an extra square bracket after
the '--message' argument, even though the square bracket should have
been after the pathspec argument (where it was also added).
Remove the extra square bracket after the '--message' argument, to show
that the pathspec argument should be used with the 'push' verb.
While the pathspec argument can be used without the push verb, that's a
special case described later in the man page, and removing the first extra
square bracket instead of the second one makes the synopis easier to
understand.

The code to learn the list of merge strategies from the output of
"git merge -s help" forces C locale, so that it can notice the
message shown to indicate where the list starts in the output.
However, GETTEXT_POISON build corrupts its output even when run in
the C locale, and we cannot expect this test to succeed.

The established way to update the completion script in an already
running shell is to simply source it again: this brings in any new
--options and features, and clears caching variables. E.g. it clears
the variables caching the list of (all|porcelain) git commands, so
when they are later lazy-initialized again, then they will list and
cache any newly installed commmands as well.
Unfortunately, since d401f3debc (git-completion.bash: introduce
__gitcomp_builtin, 2018-02-09) and subsequent patches this doesn't
work for a lot of git commands' options. To eliminate a lot of
hard-to-maintain hard-coded lists of options, those commits changed
the completion script to use a bunch of programmatically created and
lazy-initialized variables to cache the options of those builtin
porcelain commands that use parse-options. These variables are not
cleared upon sourcing the completion script, therefore they continue
caching the old lists of options, even when some commands recently
learned new options or when deprecated options were removed.
Always 'unset' these variables caching the options of builtin commands
when sourcing the completion script.
Redirect 'unset's stderr to /dev/null, because ZSH's 'unset' complains
if it's invoked without any arguments, i.e. no variables caching
builtin's options are set. This can happen, if someone were to source
the completion script twice without completing any --options in
between. Bash stays silent in this case.
Add tests to ensure that these variables are indeed cleared when the
completion script is sourced; not just the variables caching options,
but all other caching variables, i.e. the variables caching commands,
porcelain commands and merge strategies as well.
