The changelog entry for the new `git pack-refs --auto` mode only says
that the new flag is useful, but doesn't really say what it does. Add
some more information.

In 850b6edefa (auto-gc: extract a reusable helper from "git fetch",
2020-05-06), we have introduced a helper function `run_auto_gc()` that
kicks off `git gc --auto`. The intent of this function was to pass down
the "--quiet" flag to git-gc(1) as required without duplicating this at
all callsites. In 7c3e9e8cfb (auto-gc: pass --quiet down from am,
commit, merge and rebase, 2020-05-06) we then converted callsites that
need to pass down this flag to use the new helper function. This has the
notable omission of git-receive-pack(1), which is the only remaining
user of `git gc --auto` that sets up the proccess manually. This is
probably because it unconditionally passes down the `--quiet` flag and
thus didn't benefit much from the new helper function.
In a95ce12430 (maintenance: replace run_auto_gc(), 2020-09-17) we then
replaced `run_auto_gc()` with `run_auto_maintenance()` which invokes
git-maintenance(1) instead of git-gc(1). This command is the modern
replacement for git-gc(1) and is both more thorough and also more
flexible because administrators can configure which tasks exactly to run
during maintenance.
But due to git-receive-pack(1) not using `run_auto_gc()` in the first
place it did not get converted to use git-maintenance(1) like we do
everywhere else now. Address this oversight and start to use the newly
introduced function `prepare_auto_maintenance()`. This will also make it
easier for us to adapt this code together with all the other callsites
that invoke auto-maintenance in the future.
This removes the last internal user of `git gc --auto`.

NUL cannot appear in paths. Even disregarding filesystem path
limitations, the tree object format delimits with NUL, so such a path
cannot be encoded by Git.
When a quoted path is unquoted, it could possibly contain NUL from
"\000". Forbid it so it isn't truncated.
fast-import still has other issues with NUL, but those will be addressed
later.

It describes what characters cannot be in an unquoted path, but not
their semantics. Reframe it as a definition of unquoted paths. From the
perspective of the parser, whether it starts with `"` is what defines
whether it will parse it as quoted or unquoted.
The restrictions on characters in unquoted paths (with starting-", LF,
and spaces) are explained in the quoted paragraph. Move it to the
unquoted paragraph and reword.
The restriction that the source paths of filecopy and filerename cannot
contain SP is only stated in their respective sections. Restate it in
the <path> section.

Dash bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dash/+bug/139097
lets the shell erroneously perform field splitting on the expansion
of a command substitution during declaration of a local or an extern
variable.
The explanation was stolen from ebee5580 (parallel-checkout: avoid
dash local bug in tests, 2021-06-06).

https://lore.kernel.org/git/201307081121.22769.tboegi@web.de/
resulted in 9968ffff (test-lint: detect 'export FOO=bar',
2013-07-08) to add a rule to t/check-non-portable-shell.pl script to
reject
export VAR=VAL
and suggest us to instead write it as two statements, i.e.,
VAR=VAL
export VAR
This however was not spelled out in the CodingGuidelines document.
We may want to re-evaluate the rule since it is from ages ago, but
for now, let's make the written rule and what the automation
enforces consistent.

The `git-update-ref` command is used to modify references. The usage of
{old,new}value in the documentation refers to the OIDs. This is fine
since the command only works with regular references which hold OIDs.
But if the command is updated to support symrefs, we'd also be dealing
with {old,new}-refs.
To improve clarity around what exactly {old,new}value mean, let's rename
it to {old,new}-oid.
