When a test fails in the GitHub Actions CI pipeline, we mark it up using
special GitHub syntax so it stands out when looking at the run log. We
also mark up "fixed" test cases, and skip passing tests since we want to
concentrate on the failures.
The finalize_test_case_output function in
test-lib-github-workflow-markup.sh which performs this markup is however
missing a fourth case: "broken" tests, i.e. tests using
'test_expect_failure' to document a known bug. This leads to these
"broken" tests appearing along with any failed tests, potentially
confusing the reader who might not be aware that "broken" is the status
for 'test_expect_failure' tests that indeed failed, and wondering what
their commits "broke".
Also skip these "broken" tests so that only failures and fixed tests
stand out.

The exit code of the preceding command in a pipe is disregarded. So
if that preceding command is a Git command that fails, the test would
not fail. Instead, by saving the output of that Git command to a file,
and removing the pipe, we make sure the test will fail if that Git
command fails.

To prevent bitrot, we would like to regularly exercise the fuzz tests in
order to make sure they still link & run properly. We already compile
the fuzz test objects as part of the default `make` target, but we do
not link the executables due to the fuzz tests needing specific
compilers and compiler features. This has lead to frequent build
breakages for the fuzz tests.
To remedy this, we can add a CI step to actually link the fuzz
executables, and run them (with finite input rather than the default
infinite random input mode) to verify that they execute properly.
Since the main use of the fuzz tests is via OSS-Fuzz [1], and OSS-Fuzz
only runs tests on Linux [2], we only set up a CI test for the fuzzers
on Linux.

When we originally added the fuzz tests in 5e47215080 (fuzz: add basic
fuzz testing target., 2018-10-12), we went to some trouble to create a
Makefile rule that allowed linking the fuzz executables without pulling
in common-main.o. This was necessary to prevent the
fuzzing-engine-provided main() from clashing with Git's main().
However, since 19d75948ef (common-main.c: move non-trace2 exit()
behavior out of trace2.c, 2022-06-02), it has been necessary to link
common-main.o due to moving the common_exit() function to that file.
Ævar suggested a set of compiler flags to allow this in [1], but this
was never reflected in the Makefile.
Since we now must include common-main.o, there's no reason to pick and
choose a subset of object files to link, so simplify the Makefile rule
for the fuzzer executables to just use libgit.a. While we're at it,
include the necessary linker flag to allow multiple definitions
directly in the Makefile rule, rather than requiring it to be passed on
the command-line each time. This means the Makefile rule as written is
now more compiler-specific, but this was already the case for the
fuzzers themselves anyway.

We're about to convert the MERGE_AUTOSTASH ref to become non-special,
using the refs API instead of direct filesystem access to both read and
write the ref. The current interfaces to write autostashes is entirely
path-based though, so we need to extend them to also support writes via
the refs API instead.
Ideally, we would be able to fully replace the old set of path-based
interfaces. But the sequencer will continue to write state into
"rebase-merge/autostash". This path is not considered to be a ref at all
and will thus stay is-is for now, which requires us to keep both path-
and refs-based interfaces to handle autostashes.

In 70c70de616 (refs: complete list of special refs, 2023-12-14) we have
inrtoduced a new `is_special_ref()` function that classifies some refs
as being special. The rule is that special refs are exclusively read and
written via the filesystem directly, whereas normal refs exclucsively go
via the refs API.
The intent of that commit was to record the status quo so that we know
to route reads of such special refs consistently. Eventually, the list
should be reduced to its bare minimum of refs which really are special,
namely FETCH_HEAD and MERGE_HEAD.
Follow up on this promise and convert the AUTO_MERGE ref to become a
normal pseudo-ref by using the refs API to both read and write it
instead of accessing the filesystem directly.

When picking commits, we delete some state before executing the next
sequencer action on interactive rebases. But while we use the correct
repository to calculate paths to state files that need deletion, we use
the repo-less `delete_ref()` function to delete REBASE_HEAD. Thus, if
the sequencer ran in a different repository than `the_repository`, we
would end up deleting the ref in the wrong repository.
Fix this by using `refs_delete_ref()` instead.

When cleaning up the state-tracking pseudorefs CHERRY_PICK_HEAD or
REVERT_HEAD we do not set REF_NO_DEREF. In the unlikely case where those
refs are a symref we would thus end up deleting the symref targets, and
not the symrefs themselves.
Harden the code to use REF_NO_DEREF to fix this.

Update the validation of "curl URL" submodule URLs (i.e. those that specify
an "http[s]" or "ftp[s]" protocol) in 'check_submodule_url()' to catch more
invalid URLs. The existing validation using 'credential_from_url_gently()'
parses certain URLs incorrectly, leading to invalid submodule URLs passing
'git fsck' checks. Conversely, 'url_normalize()' - used to validate remote
URLs in 'remote_get()' - correctly identifies the invalid URLs missed by
'credential_from_url_gently()'.
To catch more invalid cases, replace 'credential_from_url_gently()' with
'url_normalize()' followed by a 'url_decode()' and a check for newlines
(mirroring 'check_url_component()' in the 'credential_from_url_gently()'
validation).
