We only need the current time for relative dates like "5
minutes ago", and those are parsed only through approxidate,
not the strict parser used by parse_dates().

A new date format "--date=human" that morphs its output depending
on how far the time is from the current time has been introduced.
"--date=auto" can be used to use this new format when the output is
going to the pager or to the terminal and otherwise the default
format.
* lt/date-human:
Add `human` date format tests.
Add `human` format to test-tool
Add 'human' date format documentation
Replace the proposed 'auto' mode with 'auto:'
Add 'human' date format

The getnanos() helper always gets the current time from our
getnanotime() facility. The caller cannot override it via TEST_DATE_NOW,
and hence we simply ignore the "now" parameter to the function. Let's
remove it, as it may mislead callers into thinking it does something.

Add the human format support to the test tool so that
GIT_TEST_DATE_NOW can be used to specify the current time.
The get_time() helper function was created and and checks the
GIT_TEST_DATE_NOW environment variable. If GIT_TEST_DATE_NOW is set,
then that date is used instead of the date returned by by
gettimeofday().
All calls to gettimeofday() were replaced by calls to get_time().
Renamed occurances of TEST_DATE_NOW to GIT_TEST_DATE_NOW since the
variable is now used in the get binary and not just in the test-tool.

In the next commit, we want to teach Git's test suite to optionally
output test results in JUnit-style .xml files. These files contain
information about the time spent. So we need a way to measure time.
While we could use `date +%s` for that, this will give us only seconds,
i.e. very coarse-grained timings.
GNU `date` supports `date +%s.%N` (i.e. nanosecond-precision output),
but there is no equivalent in BSD `date` (read: on macOS, we would not
be able to obtain precise timings).
So let's introduce `test-tool date getnanos`, with an optional start
time, that outputs preciser values. Note that this might not actually
give us nanosecond precision on some platforms, but it will give us as
precise information as possible, without the portability issues of shell
commands.
Granted, it is a bit pointless to try measuring times accurately in
shell scripts, certainly to nanosecond precision. But it is better than
second-granularity.

The timestamp we receive is in epoch time, so there's no need for a
timezone parameter to interpret it. The matching show_date() uses "tz"
to show dates in author local time, but relative dates show only the
absolute time difference. The author's location is irrelevant, barring
relativistic effects from using Git close to the speed of light.

Add --expiry-date as a data-type for config files when
'git config --get' is used. This will return any relative
or fixed dates from config files as timestamps.
This is useful for scripts (e.g. gc.reflogexpire) that work
with timestamps so that '2.weeks' can be converted to a format
acceptable by those scripts/functions.
Following the convention of git_config_pathname(), move
the helper function required for this feature from
builtin/reflog.c to builtin/config.c where other similar
functions exist (e.g. for --bool or --path), and match
the order of parameters with other functions (i.e. output
pointer as first parameter).

Git's source code assumes that unsigned long is at least as precise as
time_t. Which is incorrect, and causes a lot of problems, in particular
where unsigned long is only 32-bit (notably on Windows, even in 64-bit
versions).
So let's just use a more appropriate data type instead. In preparation
for this, we introduce the new `timestamp_t` data type.
By necessity, this is a very, very large patch, as it has to replace all
timestamps' data type in one go.
As we will use a data type that is not necessarily identical to `time_t`,
we need to be very careful to use `time_t` whenever we interact with the
system functions, and `timestamp_t` everywhere else.

Currently, Git's source code treats all timestamps as if they were
unsigned longs. Therefore, it is okay to write "%lu" when printing them.
There is a substantial problem with that, though: at least on Windows,
time_t is *larger* than unsigned long, and hence we will want to switch
away from the ill-specified `unsigned long` data type.
So let's introduce the pseudo format "PRItime" (currently simply being
defined to "lu") to make it easier to change the data type used for
timestamps.

Currently, Git's source code represents all timestamps as `unsigned
long`. In preparation for using a more appropriate data type, let's
introduce a symbol `parse_timestamp` (currently being defined to
`strtoul`) where appropriate, so that we can later easily switch to,
say, use `strtoull()` instead.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned long, which is
ill-defined, as there is no guarantee about the number of bits that
data type has.
In preparation of switching to another data type that is large enough
to hold "far in the future" dates, we need to prepare the t0006-date.sh
script for the case where we *still* cannot format those dates if the
system library uses 32-bit time_t.

Git's source code refers to timestamps as unsigned longs. On 32-bit
platforms, as well as on Windows, unsigned long is not large enough to
capture dates that are "absurdly far in the future".
It is perfectly valid by the C standard, of course, for the `long` data
type to refer to 32-bit integers. That is why the `time_t` data type
exists: so that it can be 64-bit even if `long` is 32-bit. Git's source
code simply uses an incorrect data type for timestamps, is all.
The earlier quick fix 6b9c38e14cd (t0006: skip "far in the future" test
when unsigned long is not long enough, 2016-07-11) papered over this
issue simply by skipping the respective test cases on platforms where
they would fail due to the data type in use.
This quick fix, however, tests for *long* to be 64-bit or not. What we
need, though, is a test that says whether *whatever data type we use for
timestamps* is 64-bit or not.
The same quick fix was used to handle the similar problem where Git's
source code uses `unsigned long` to represent size, instead of `size_t`,
conflating the two issues.
So let's just add another prerequisite to test specifically whether
timestamps are represented by a 64-bit data type or not. Later, after we
switch to a larger data type, we can flip that prerequisite to test
`time_t` instead of `long`.

There are certain house-keeping tasks that need to be performed at
the very beginning of any Git program, and programs that are not
built-in commands had to do them exactly the same way as "git"
potty does. It was easy to make mistakes in one-off standalone
programs (like test helpers). A common "main()" function that
calls cmd_main() of individual program has been introduced to
make it harder to make mistakes.
* jk/common-main:
mingw: declare main()'s argv as const
common-main: call git_setup_gettext()
common-main: call restore_sigpipe_to_default()
common-main: call sanitize_stdfds()
common-main: call git_extract_argv0_path()
add an extra level of indirection to main()

The internal code used to show local timezone offset is not
prepared to handle timestamps beyond year 2100, and gave a
bogus offset value to the caller. Use a more benign looking
+0000 instead and let "git log" going in such a case, instead
of aborting.

local_tzoffset: detect errors from tm_to_time_t
t0006: test various date formats
