Historically, nobody paid attention to our own source code having correct Git attributes when it comes to line endings. Because historically, we had no good way to specify that ;-)

But now we do, and so we need to use it. Especially when it would break the build otherwise.

The `chainlint` target compares actual output to expected output, where
the actual output is generated from files that are specifically checked
out with LF-only line endings. So the expected output needs to be
checked out with LF-only line endings, too.

The primary goal of this change is to stop leaking init_db_template_dir.
This leak can happen because:
 1. git_init_db_config() allocates new memory into init_db_template_dir
    without first freeing the existing value.
 2. init_db_template_dir might already contain data, either because:
  2.1 git_config() can be invoked twice with this callback in a single
      process - at least 2 allocations are likely.
  2.2 A single git_config() allocation can invoke the callback multiple
      times for a given key (see further explanation in the function
      docs) - each of those calls will trigger another leak.

The simplest fix for the leak would be to free(init_db_template_dir)
before overwriting it. Instead we choose to convert to fetching
init.templatedir via git_config_get_value() as that is more explicit,
more efficient, and avoids allocations (the returned result is owned by
the config cache, so we aren't responsible for freeing it).

If we remove init_db_template_dir, git_init_db_config() ends up being
responsible only for forwarding core.* config values to
platform_core_config(). However platform_core_config() already ignores
non-core.* config values, so we can safely remove git_init_db_config()
and invoke git_config() directly with platform_core_config() as the
callback.

The platform_core_config forwarding was originally added in:
  2878533 (mingw: respect core.hidedotfiles = false in git-init again, 2019-03-11
And I suspect the potential for a leak existed since the original
implementation of git_init_db_config in:
  90b4518 (Add `init.templatedir` configuration variable., 2010-02-17)

ibuf can be reused for multiple iterations of the loop. Specifically:
deflate() overwrites s.avail_in to show how much of the input buffer
has not been processed yet - and sometimes leaves 'avail_in > 0', in
which case ibuf will be processed again during the loop's subsequent
iteration.

But if we declare ibuf within the loop, then (in theory) we get a new
(and uninitialised) buffer for every iteration. In practice, my compiler
seems to resue the same buffer - meaning that this code does work - but
it doesn't seem safe to rely on this behaviour. MSAN correctly catches
this issue - as soon as we hit the 's.avail_in > 0' condition, we end up
reading from what seems to be uninitialised memory.

Therefore, we move ibuf out of the loop, making this reuse safe.

See MSAN output from t1050-large below - the interesting part is the
ibuf creation at the end, although there's a lot of indirection before
we reach the read from unitialised memory:

object_id.hash is actually being used, therefore including it in a
memcmp() is technically incorrect. Instead we choose to exclude the
object_id when calling memcmp(), and call oideq() separately.

This issue was found when running t1700-split-index with MSAN, see MSAN
output below (on my machine, offset 76 corresponds to 4 bytes after the
start of object_id.hash).

In a sparse index it is possible for the tree that is being verified
to be freed while it is being verified. This happens when
index_name_pos() looks up a entry that is missing from the index and
that would be a descendant of a sparse entry. That triggers a call to
ensure_full_index() which frees the cache tree that is being verified.
Carrying on trying to verify the tree after this results in a
use-after-free bug. Instead restart the verification if a sparse index
is converted to a full index. This bug is triggered by a call to
reset_head() in "git rebase --apply". Thanks to René Scharfe for his
help analyzing the problem.

When fetching packfiles, we write a bunch of lockfiles for the packfiles
we're writing into the repository. In order to not leave behind any
cruft in case we exit or receive a signal, we register both an exit
handler as well as signal handlers for common signals like SIGINT. These
handlers will then unlink the locks and free the data structure tracking
them. We have observed a deadlock in this logic though:

The process was killed with a signal, which caused the signal handler to
kick in and try free the data structures after we have unlinked the
locks. It then deadlocks while calling free(3P).

The root cause of this is that it is not allowed to call certain
functions in async-signal handlers, as specified by signal-safety(7).
Next to most I/O functions, this list of disallowed functions also
includes memory-handling functions like malloc(3P) and free(3P) because
they may not be reentrant. As a result, if we execute such functions in
the signal handler, then they may operate on inconistent state and fail
in unexpected ways.

Fix this bug by not calling non-async-signal-safe functions when running
in the signal handler. We're about to re-raise the signal anyway and
will thus exit, so it's not much of a problem to keep the string list of
lockfiles untouched. Note that it's fine though to call unlink(2), so
we'll still clean up the lockfiles correctly.

There is an out-of-bounds read possible when parsing gitattributes that
have an attribute that is 2^31+1 bytes long. This is caused due to an
integer overflow when we assign the result of strlen(3P) to an `int`,
where we use the wrapped-around value in a subsequent call to
memcpy(3P). The following code reproduces the issue:

    blob=$(perl -e 'print "a" x 2147483649 . " attr"' | git hash-object -w --stdin)
    git update-index --add --cacheinfo 100644,$blob,.gitattributes

It is possible to trigger an integer overflow when parsing attribute
names when there are more than 2^31 of them for a single pattern. This
can either lead to us dying due to trying to request too many bytes:

     blob=$(perl -e 'print "f" . " a=" x 2147483649' | git hash-object -w --stdin)

Or, much worse, it can lead to an out-of-bounds write because we
underallocate and then memcpy(3P) into an array:

Fix this bug by using `size_t` instead to count the number of attributes
so that this value cannot reasonably overflow without running out of
memory before already.

When using a padding specifier in the pretty format passed to git-log(1)
we need to calculate the string length in several places. These string
lengths are stored in `int`s though, which means that these can easily
overflow when the input lengths exceeds 2GB. This can ultimately lead to
an out-of-bounds write when these are used in a call to memcpy(3P):

The pretty format can also be used in `git archive` operations via the
`export-subst` attribute. So this is what in our opinion makes this a
critical issue in the context of Git forges which allow to download an
archive of user supplied Git repositories.

Fix this vulnerability by using `size_t` instead of `int` to track the
string lengths. Add tests which detect this vulnerability when Git is
compiled with the address sanitizer.

With the `%>>(<N>)` pretty formatter, you can ask git-log(1) et al to
steal spaces. To do so we need to look ahead of the next token to see
whether there are spaces there. This loop takes into account ANSI
sequences that end with an `m`, and if it finds any it will skip them
until it finds the first space. While doing so it does not take into
account the buffer's limits though and easily does an out-of-bounds
read.

Add a test that hits this behaviour. While we don't have an easy way to
verify this, the test causes the following failure when run with
`SANITIZE=address`:

Luckily enough, this would only cause us to copy the out-of-bounds data
into the formatted commit in case we really had an ANSI sequence
preceding our buffer. So this bug likely has no security consequences.

Fix it regardless by not traversing past the buffer's start.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the
reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not
properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads.

Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the
stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been
rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up
discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator.
The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory,
which of course segfaults.

One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance
jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack
traces like the following one:

While it is somewhat awkward that the maintenance processes survive
tests in the first place, it is totally expected that reftables should
work alright with concurrent writers. Seemingly they don't.

The only underlying resource that we need to care about in this context
is the reftable reader, which is responsible for reading a single table
from disk. These readers get discarded immediately (unless reused) when
calling `reftable_stack_reload()`, which is wrong. We can only close
them once we know that there are no iterators using them anymore.

Prepare for a fix by converting the reftable readers to be refcounted.

It was recently reported that concurrent reads and writes may cause the
reftable backend to segfault. The root cause of this is that we do not
properly keep track of reftable readers across reloads.

Suppose that you have a reftable iterator and then decide to reload the
stack while iterating through the iterator. When the stack has been
rewritten since we have created the iterator, then we would end up
discarding a subset of readers that may still be in use by the iterator.
The consequence is that we now try to reference deallocated memory,
which of course segfaults.

One way to trigger this is in t5616, where some background maintenance
jobs have been leaking from one test into another. This leads to stack
traces like the following one:
