As of "Win32: Thread-safe windows console output", child processes may
print to the console even if stdout has been redirected to a file. E.g.:
git config tar.cat.command "cat"
git archive -o test.cat HEAD
Detecting whether stdout / stderr point to our console pipe is currently
based on the assumption that OS HANDLE values are never reused. This is
apparently not true if stdout / stderr is replaced via dup2() (as in
builtin/archive.c:17).
Instead of comparing handle values, check if the file descriptor isatty()
backed by a pipe OS handle. This is only possible by swapping the handles
in MSVCRT's internal data structures, as we do in winansi_init().

As of "Win32: Thread-safe windows console output", git-log no longer
terminates when the pager process dies. This is due to disabling buffering
for the replaced stdout / stderr streams. Git-log will periodically fflush
stdout (see write_or_die.c/mayble_flush_or_die()), but with no buffering,
this is a NOP that always succeeds (so we never detect the EPIPE error).
Exchange the original console handles with our console thread pipe handles
by accessing the internal MSVCRT data structures directly (which are
exposed via __pioinfo for some reason).
Implement this with minimal assumptions about the actual data structure to
make it work with different (hopefully even future) MSVCRT versions.
While messing with internal data structures is ugly, this patch solves the
problem at the source instead of adding more workarounds. We no longer need
the special winansi_isatty override, and the limitations documented in
"Win32: Thread-safe windows console output" are gone (i.e. fdopen(1/2)
returns unbuffered streams now, and isatty() for duped console file
descriptors works as expected).

Winansi.c has many static variables that are accessed and modified from
the [v][f]printf / fputs functions overridden in the file. This may cause
multi threaded git commands that print to the console to produce corrupted
output or even crash.
Additionally, winansi.c doesn't override all functions that can be used to
print to the console (e.g. fwrite, write, fputc are missing), so that ANSI
escapes don't work properly for some git commands (e.g. git-grep).
Instead of doing ANSI emulation in just a few wrapped functions on top of
the IO API, let's plug into the IO system and take advantage of the thread
safety inherent to the IO system.
Redirect stdout and stderr to a pipe if they point to the console. A
background thread reads from the pipe, handles ANSI escape sequences and
UTF-8 to UTF-16 conversion, then writes to the console.
The pipe-based stdout and stderr replacements must be set to unbuffered, as
MSVCRT doesn't support line buffering and fully buffered streams are
inappropriate for console output.
Due to the byte-oriented pipe, ANSI escape sequences and multi-byte UTF-8
sequences can no longer be expected to arrive in one piece. Replace the
string-based ansi_emulate() with a simple stateful parser (this also fixes
colored diff hunk headers, which were broken as of commit 2efcc977).
Override isatty to return true for the pipes redirecting to the console.
Exec/spawn obtain the original console handle to pass to the next process
via winansi_get_osfhandle().
All other overrides are gone, the default stdio implementations work as
expected with the piped stdout/stderr descriptors.
Global variables are either initialized on startup (single threaded) or
exclusively modified by the background thread. Threads communicate through
the pipe, no further synchronization is necessary.
The background thread is terminated by disonnecting the pipe after flushing
the stdio and pipe buffers. This doesn't work for anonymous pipes (created
via CreatePipe), as DisconnectNamedPipe only works on the read end, which
discards remaining data. Thus we have to setup the pipe manually, with the
write end beeing the server (opened with CreateNamedPipe) and the read end
the client (opened with CreateFile).
Limitations: doesn't track reopened or duped file descriptors, i.e.:
- fdopen(1/2) returns fully buffered streams
- dup(1/2), dup2(1/2) returns normal pipe descriptors (i.e. isatty() =
false, winansi_get_osfhandle won't return the original console handle)
Currently, only the git-format-patch command uses xfdopen(xdup(1)) (see
"realstdout" in builtin/log.c), but works well with these limitations.
Many thanks to Atsushi Nakagawa <atnak@chejz.com> for suggesting and
reviewing the thread-exit-mechanism.

Unicode console output won't display correctly with default settings
because the default console font ("Terminal") only supports the system's
OEM charset. Unfortunately, this is a user specific setting, so it cannot
be easily fixed by e.g. some registry tricks in the setup program.
This change prints a warning on exit if console output contained non-ascii
characters and the console font is supposedly not a TrueType font (which
usually have decent Unicode support).

GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE) doesn't work for stderr if stdout is
redirected. Use _get_osfhandle of the FILE* instead.
_isatty() is true for all character devices (including parallel and serial
ports). Check return value of GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo instead to
reliably detect console handles (also don't initialize internal state from
an uninitialized CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO structure if the function
fails).

WriteConsoleW seems to be the only way to reliably print unicode to the
console (without weird code page conversions).
Also redirects vfprintf to the winansi.c version.

Centralize the include of windows.h in git-compat-util.h, turn on
WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN to avoid including plenty of other header files
which is not needed in Git. Also ensure we load winsock2.h first,
so we don't load the older winsock definitions at a later stage,
since they contain duplicate definitions.
When moving windows.h into git-compat-util.h, we need to protect
the definition of struct pollfd in mingw.h, since this file is used
by both MinGW and MSVC, and the latter defines this struct in
winsock2.h.
We need to keep the windows.h include in compat/win32.h, since its
shared by both MinGW and Cygwin, and we're not touching Cygwin in
this commit. The include in git-compat-util.h is protected with an
ifdef WIN32, which is not the case when compiling for Cygwin.

sometimes
The function FillConsoleOutputCharacterA() was pretty content in XP to take a NULL
pointer if we did not want to store the number of written columns. In Windows 7,
it crashes, but only when called from within Git Bash, not from within cmd.exe.
Go figure.

This adds only the minimum necessary to keep git pull/merge's diffstat from
wrapping. Notably absent is support for the K (erase) operation, and support
for POSIX write.
