The trace2 event target does not have an implementation for
trace2_printf(). While the event target is for structured events, and
trace2_printf() is for unstructured, human-readable messages, it may
still be useful to wrap these unstructured messages in a structured JSON
object. Among other things, it may reduce confusion when manually
debugging using event trace data.
Add a simple implementation for the event target that wraps
trace2_printf() messages in a minimal JSON object. Document this in
Documentation/technical/api-trace2.txt, and bump the event format
version since we're adding a new event type.

Git-SVN was previously taught to use the svn:global-ignores property as
well as svn:ignore when creating or showing .gitignore files from a
Subversion repository. However, the documentation and help message still
only mentioned svn:ignore. Update Git-SVN's documentation and help
command to mention support for the new property. Also capitalize the
help message for the 'mkdirs' command, for consistency.

The git-fsck(1) only implicitly checks the reference, it does not fully
check refs with bad format name such as standalone "@".
However, a file ending with ".lock" should not be marked as having a bad
ref name. It is expected that concurrent writers may have such lock files.
We currently ignore this situation. But for bare ".lock" file, we will
report it as error.
In order to provide such checks, add a new fsck message id "badRefName"
with default ERROR type. Use existing "check_refname_format" to explicit
check the ref name. And add a new unit test to verify the functionality.

Introduce a new subcommand "verify" in git-refs(1) to allow the user to
check the reference database consistency and also this subcommand will
be used as the entry point of checking refs for "git-fsck(1)".
Add "verbose" field into "fsck_options" to indicate whether we should
print verbose messages when checking refs and objects consistency.
Remove bit-field for "strict" field, this is because we cannot take
address of a bit-field which makes it unhandy to set member variables
when parsing the command line options.
The "git-fsck(1)" declares "fsck_options" variable with "static"
identifier which avoids complaint by the leak-checker. However, in
"git-refs verify", we need to do memory clean manually. Thus add
"fsck_options_clear" function in "fsck.c" to provide memory clean
operation.

As submodules are proper self-contained repositories, it is perfectly
valid for them to have a different ref storage format than their parent
repository. There is no obvious way for users to ask for the ref storage
format when initializing submodules though. Whether the setup of such
mixed-ref-storage-format constellations is all that useful remains to be
seen. But there is no good reason to not expose such an option, and we
will require it in a subsequent patch.
Introduce a new `--ref-format=` option for git-submodule(1) that allows
the user to pick the ref storage format. This option will also be used
in a subsequent commit, where we start to propagate the same flag from
git-clone(1) to cloning submodules with the `--recursive` switch.

Now that the rest of the MIDX subsystem and relevant callers have been
updated to learn about how to read and process incremental MIDX chains,
let's finally update the implementation in `write_midx_internal()` to be
able to write incremental MIDX chains.
This new feature is available behind the `--incremental` option for the
`multi-pack-index` builtin, like so:
$ git multi-pack-index write --incremental
The implementation for doing so is relatively straightforward, and boils
down to a handful of different kinds of changes implemented in this
patch:
- The `compute_sorted_entries()` function is taught to reject objects
which appear in any existing MIDX layer.
- Functions like `write_midx_revindex()` are adjusted to write
pack_order values which are offset by the number of objects in the
base MIDX layer.
- The end of `write_midx_internal()` is adjusted to move
non-incremental MIDX files when necessary (i.e. when creating an
incremental chain with an existing non-incremental MIDX in the
repository).
There are a handful of other changes that are introduced, like new
functions to clear incremental MIDX files that are unrelated to the
current chain (using the same "keep_hash" mechanism as in the
non-incremental case).
The tests explicitly exercising the new incremental MIDX feature are
relatively limited for two reasons:
1. Most of the "interesting" behavior is already thoroughly covered in
t5319-multi-pack-index.sh, which handles the core logic of reading
objects through a MIDX.
The new tests in t5334-incremental-multi-pack-index.sh are mostly
focused on creating and destroying incremental MIDXs, as well as
stitching their results together across layers.
2. A new GIT_TEST environment variable is added called
"GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX_WRITE_INCREMENTAL", which modifies the
entire test suite to write incremental MIDXs after repacking when
combined with the "GIT_TEST_MULTI_PACK_INDEX" variable.
This exercises the long tail of other interesting behavior that is
defined implicitly throughout the rest of the CI suite. It is
likewise added to the linux-TEST-vars job.

Prepare to implement incremental multi-pack indexes (MIDXs) over the
next several commits by first describing the relevant prerequisites
(like a new chunk in the MIDX format, the directory structure for
incremental MIDXs, etc.)
The format is described in detail in the patch contents below, but the
high-level description is as follows.
Incremental MIDXs live in $GIT_DIR/objects/pack/multi-pack-index.d, and
each `*.midx` within that directory has a single "parent" MIDX, which is
the MIDX layer immediately before it in the MIDX chain. The chain order
resides in a file 'multi-pack-index-chain' in the same directory.

Supporting many platforms is only possible when we have the right tools to
ensure that support.
Teach platform maintainers how they can help us to help them, by
explaining what kind of tooling support we would like to have, and what
level of support becomes available as a result. Provide examples so that
platform maintainers can see what we're asking for in practice.
With this policy in place, we can make changes with stronger assurance
that we are not breaking anybody we promised not to. Instead, we can
feel confident that our existing testing and integration practices
protect those who care from breakage.

The documentation for `http.proxy` describes that option, and the
environment variables it overrides, as supporting "the syntax understood
by curl". curl allows SOCKS proxies to use a path to a Unix domain
socket, like `socks5h://localhost/path/to/socket.sock`. Git should
therefore include, if present, the path part of the proxy URL in what it
passes to libcurl.

Our coding guide is inconsistent with how it uses spaces inside of
initializers (`struct foo bar = { something }`). While we mostly carry
the space between open and closing braces and the initialized members,
in one case we don't.
Fix this one instance such that we consistently carry the space. This is
also consistent with how clang-format formats such initializers.

We semi-regularly have discussions around whether a function shall be
named `S_release()`, `S_clear()` or `S_free()`. Indeed, it may not be
obvious which of these is preferable as we never really defined what
each of these variants means exactly.
Carve out a space where we can add idiomatic names for common functions
in our coding guidelines and define each of those functions. Like this,
we can get to a shared understanding of their respective semantics and
can easily point towards our style guide in future discussions such that
our codebase becomes more consistent over time.
Note that the intent is not to rename all functions which violate these
semantics right away. Rather, the intent is to slowly converge towards a
common style over time.

We nowadays have a proper mishmash of struct-related functions that are
called `<verb>_<struct>` (e.g. `clear_prio_queue()`) versus functions
that are called `<struct>_<verb>` (e.g. `strbuf_clear()`). While the
former style may be easier to tie into a spoken conversation, most of
our communication happens in text anyway. Furthermore, prefixing
functions with the name of the structure they operate on makes it way
easier to group them together, see which functions are related, and will
also help folks who are using code completion.
Let's thus settle on one style, namely the one where functions start
with the name of the structure they operate on.

`%xXX`, mirroring the behaviour of `git log --format`.
