Subject: [PATCH 8/9] test-lib: test_region looks for trace2 regions
Most test cases can verify Git's behavior using input/output
expectations or changes to the .git directory. However, sometimes we
want to check that Git did or did not run a certain section of code.
This is particularly important for performance-only features that we
want to ensure have been enabled in certain cases.
Add a new 'test_region' function that checks if a trace2 region was
entered and left in a given trace2 event log.
There is one existing test (t0500-progress-display.sh) that performs
this check already, so use the helper function instead. Note that this
changes the expectations slightly. The old test (incorrectly) used two
patterns for the 'grep' invocation, but this performs an OR of the
patterns, not an AND. This means that as long as one region_enter event
was logged, the test would succeed, even if it was not due to the
progress category.
More uses will be added in a later change.
t6423-merge-rename-directories.sh also greps for region_enter lines, but
it verifies the number of such lines, which is not the same as an
existence check.

Rather than teaching only one operation, like 'git fetch', how to write
down throughput to traces, we can learn about a wide range of user
operations that may seem slow by adding tooling to the progress library
itself. Operations which display progress are likely to be slow-running
and the kind of thing we want to monitor for performance anyways. By
showing object counts and data transfer size, we should be able to
make some derived measurements to ensure operations are scaling the way
we expect.

'progress.c' has seen a few fixes recently [1], and, unfortunately,
some of those fixes required further fixes [2]. It seems it's time to
have a few tests focusing on the subtleties of the progress display.
Add the 'test-tool progress' subcommand to help testing the progress
display, reading instructions from standard input and turning them
into calls to the display_progress() and display_throughput()
functions with the given parameters.
The progress display is, however, critically dependent on timing,
because it's only updated once every second or, if the toal is known
in advance, every 1%, and there is the throughput rate as well. These
make the progress display far too undeterministic for testing as-is.
To address this, add a few testing-specific variables and functions to
'progress.c', allowing the the new test helper to:
- Disable the triggered-every-second SIGALRM and set the
'progress_update' flag explicitly based in the input instructions.
This way the progress line will be updated deterministically when
the test wants it to be updated.
- Specify the time elapsed since start_progress() to make the
throughput rate calculations deterministic.
Add the new test script 't0500-progress-display.sh' to check a few
simple cases with and without throughput, and that a shorter progress
line properly covers up the previously displayed line in different
situations.

lines, 2019-04-12) and 9f1fd84e15 (progress: clear previous
progress update dynamically, 2019-04-12).
