The mechanism to report the filename in the source code, used by
the unit-test machinery, assumed that the compiler expanded __FILE__
to the path to the source given to the $(CC), but some compilers
give full path, breaking the output. This has been corrected.

GitHub Actions: update to github-script@v7
GitHub Actions: update to checkout@v4
When GIT_FLUSH is set to 1, true, on, yes, then we should disable
skip_stdout_flush, but the conversion somehow did the opposite.
With the understanding of the original motivation behind "skip" in
06f59e9f (Don't fflush(stdout) when it's not helpful, 2007-06-29),
we can sympathize with the current naming (we wanted to avoid
useless flushing of stdout by default, with an escape hatch to
always flush), but it is still not a good excuse.
Retire the "skip_stdout_flush" variable and replace it with "flush_stdout"
that tells if we do or do not want to run fflush().

"git branch" and friends learned to use the formatted text as
sorting key, not the underlying timestamp value, when the --sort
option is used with author or committer timestamp with a format
specifier (e.g., "--sort=creatordate:format:%H:%M:%S").

The Docker container used by the `linux32` job comes without Node.js,
and therefore the `actions/checkout` and `actions/upload-artifact`
Actions cannot be upgraded to the latest versions (because they use
Node.js).
One time too many, I accidentally tried to update them, where
`actions/checkout` at least fails immediately, but the
`actions/upload-artifact` step is only used when any test fails, and
therefore the CI run usually passes even though that Action was updated
to a version that is incompatible with the Docker container in which
this job runs.
So let's add a big fat warning, mainly for my own benefit, to avoid
running into the very same issue over and over again.

After activating automatic Dependabot updates in the
git-for-windows/git repository, Dependabot noticed a couple
of yet-unaddressed updates. They avoid "Node.js 16 Actions"
deprecation messages by bumping the following Actions'
versions:
- actions/upload-artifact from 3 to 4
- actions/download-artifact from 3 to 4
- actions/cache from 3 to 4

There are compilers other than Visual C that want to show absolute
paths. Generalize the helper introduced by a2c5e294 (unit-tests: do
show relative file paths, 2023-09-25) so that it can also work with
a path that uses slash as the directory separator, and becomes
almost no-op once one-time preparation finds out that we are using a
compiler that already gives relative paths. Incidentally, this also
should do the right thing on Windows with a compiler that shows
relative paths but with backslash as the directory separator (if
such a thing exists and is used to build git).
