In preparation for adding documentation for `git refs list`, factor out
the common options from the `git-for-each-ref` man page into a
shareable file `for-each-ref-options.adoc` and update
`git-for-each-ref.adoc` to use an `include::` macro.

This change is a pure refactoring and results in no change to the
final rendered documentation for `for-each-ref`.

Usage string for `git for-each-ref` was out of sync with its official
documentation. The test `t0450-txt-doc-vs-help.sh` was marked as broken
due to this.

Update the usage string to match the documentation. This allows the test
to pass, so remove the corresponding 'known breakage' marker from the
test file.

The implementation of `git for-each-ref` is monolithic within
`cmd_for_each_ref()`, making it impossible to share its logic with other
commands. To enable code reuse for the upcoming `git refs list`
subcommand, refactor the core logic into a shared helper function.

Introduce a new `for-each-ref.h` header to define the public interface
for this shared logic. It contains the declaration for a new helper
function, `for_each_ref_core()`, and a macro for the common usage
options.

Move the option parsing, filtering, and formatting logic from
`cmd_for_each_ref()` into a new helper function named
`for_each_ref_core()`. This helper is made generic by accepting the
command's usage string as a parameter.

The original `cmd_for_each_ref()` is simplified to a thin wrapper that
is only responsible for defining its specific usage array and calling
the shared helper.

Git's reference management is distributed across multiple commands. As
part of an ongoing effort to consolidate and modernize reference
handling, introduce a `list` subcommand under the `git refs` umbrella as
a replacement for `git for-each-ref`.

Implement `cmd_refs_list` by having it call the `for_each_ref_core()`
helper function. This helper was factored out of the original
`cmd_for_each_ref` in a preceding commit, allowing both commands to
share the same core logic as independent peers.

Add documentation for the new command. The man page leverages the shared
options file, created in a previous commit, by using the AsciiDoc
`include::` macro to ensure consistency with git-for-each-ref(1).

In preparation for adding tests for the new `git refs list` command,
refactor the existing t6300 test suite to make its logic shareable.

Move the core test logic from `t6300-for-each-ref.sh` into a new
`for-each-ref-tests.sh` file. Inside this new script, replace hardcoded
calls to "git for-each-ref" with the `$git_for_each_ref` variable.

The original `t6300-for-each-ref.sh` script now becomes a simple
"driver". It is responsible for setting the default value of the
variable and then sourcing the test library.

This new structure follows the established pattern used for sharing
tests between `git-blame` and `git-annotate` and prepares the test suite
for the `refs list` tests to be added in a subsequent commit.

Add a test script, `t/t1461-refs-list.sh`, for the new `git refs list`
command.

This script acts as a simple driver, leveraging the shared test library
created in the preceding commit. It works by overriding the
`$git_for_each_ref` variable to "git refs list" and then sourcing the
shared library (`t/for-each-ref-tests.sh`).

This approach ensures that `git refs list` is tested against the
entire comprehensive test suite of `git for-each-ref`, verifying
that it acts as a compatible drop-in replacement.

In git-diff, options like `-w` and `-I<regex>`, two files are considered
equivalent under the specified "ignore" rules, even when they are not
bit-for-bit identical. For options like `--raw`, `--name-status`,
and `--name-only`, git-diff deliberately compares only the SHA values
to determine whether two files are equivalent, for performance reasons.
As a result, a file shown in `git diff --name-status` may not appear
in `git diff --patch`.

To quickly determine whether two files are equivalent, add a helper
function diff_flush_patch_quietly() in diff.c. Add `.dry_run` field in
`struct diff_options`. When `.dry_run` is true, builtin_diff() returns
immediately upon finding any change. Call diff_flush_patch_quietly()
to determine if we should flush `--raw`, `--name-only` or `--name-status`
output.

The act of giving "--no-index" tells Git to pretend that the current
directory is not under control of any Git index or repository, so
even when you happen to be in a Git controlled working tree, where
in that working tree should not matter.

But the start-up sequence tries to discover the top of the working
tree and chdir(2)'s there, even before Git passes control to the
subcommand being run.  When diff_no_index() starts running, it
starts at a wrong (from the end-user's point of view who thinks
"git diff --no-index" is merely a better version of GNU diff)
directory, and the original directory the user started the command
is at "prefix".

Because the paths given from argv[] have already been adjusted to
account for this path shuffling by prepending the prefix, and
showing the resulting path by stripping the prefix, the effect of
these nonsense operations (nonsense in the context of "--no-index",
that is) is usually not observable.

Except for special cases like "-", where it is not preprocessed by
prepending the prefix.

Instead of papering over by adding more special cases only to cater
to the no-index codepath in the generic code, drive the diff
machinery more faithfully to what is going on.  If the user started
"git diff --no-index" in directory X/Y/Z in a working tree
controlled by Git, and the start up sequence of Git chdir(2)'ed up
to directory X and left Y/Z in the prefix, revert the effect of the
start up sequence by chdir'ing back to Y/Z and emptying the prefix.

In diff.c, we output a trailing "\t" at the end of any filename that
contains a space:

    case DIFF_SYMBOL_FILEPAIR_PLUS:
            meta = diff_get_color_opt(o, DIFF_METAINFO);
            reset = diff_get_color_opt(o, DIFF_RESET);
            fprintf(o->file, "%s%s+++ %s%s%s\n", diff_line_prefix(o), meta,
                    line, reset,
                    strchr(line, ' ') ? "\t" : "");
            break;

That is, for a file "foo.txt", `git diff --no-prefix` will emit:

    +++ foo.txt

but for "foo bar.txt" it will emit:

    +++ foo bar.txt\t

This in turn leads `git-jump` to produce a quickfix format like this:

    foo bar.txt\t:1:1:contents

Because no "foo bar.txt\t" file actually exists on disk, opening it in
Vim will just land the user in an empty buffer.

This commit takes the simple approach of unconditionally stripping any
trailing tab. Consider the following three examples:

1. For file "foo", Git will emit "foo".
2. For file "foo bar", Git will emit "foo bar\t".
3. For file "foo\t", Git will emit "\"foo\t\"".
4. For file "foo bar\t", Git will emit "\"foo bar\t\"".

Before this commit, `git-jump` correctly handled only case "1".

After this commit, `git-jump` correctly handles cases "1" and "2". In
reality, these are the only cases people are going to run into with any
regularity, and the other two are rare edge cases, which probably aren't
worth the effort to support unless somebody actually complains about
them.

The global variable 'merge_log_config', set via the "merge.log" or
"merge.summary" settings, is only used in 'cmd_fmt_merge_msg()' and
'cmd_merge()' to adjust the 'shortlog_len' variable.

Remove 'merge_log_config' globally and localize it in
'cmd_fmt_merge_msg()' and 'cmd_merge()'. Set its value by passing it in
'fmt_merge_msg_config()' by passing its pointer to the function via the
callback parameter.

This change is part of an ongoing effort to eliminate global variables,
improve modularity and help libify the codebase.

Refactor builtin/fmt-merge-msg.c to remove the dependancy on the global
'the_repository'. Remove the 'UNUSED' macro from the 'struct repository'
parameter and replace 'git_config()' with 'repo_config()' so that
configuration is read from the passed repository. Also, add a test to
make sure that "git fmt-merge-msg -h" can be called outside a
repository.

The synopsis section has an extra closing bracket, like this:

    [--filter=<filter>] [--also-filter-submodules]]

The extra one is not the one at the end of this line; it is the one
after "...=<filter>".

The "--also-filter-submodules" option was added by f05da2b (clone,
submodule: pass partial clone filters to submodules, 2022-02-04).
Because it makes sense only when used with the "--filter=<filter>"
option, these two options are enclosed in a pair of brackets.  The
extra one was added by 76880f0 (doc: git-clone: apply new
documentation formatting guidelines, 2024-03-29) by mistake.

Remove the extra and incorrect closing bracket, so that the line
reads:

    [--filter=<filter> [--also-filter-submodules]]

"git diff --no-index" run inside a subdirectory under control of a
