Recent '--' fixes to "git diff" by Linus made it possible to specify
filenames that start with '-'. But in order to do that, you need to
be able to add and commit such file to begin with.
Teach git-add and git-commit to honor the same '--' convention.

This makes it possible to add paths that have funny characters (TAB
and LF) in them, and makes adding many paths more efficient in
general.
New flag "--stdin" to update-index was initially added for different
purpose, but it turns out to be a perfect match for feeding "ls-files
--others -z" output to improve "git add".
It also adds "--verbose" flag to update-index for use with "git add"
command.

This fixes everybodys favourite complaint about "git add", namely that it
doesn't take directories.
We use "git-ls-files --others" to generate an arbitrary list of filenames,
and thus also automatically honor ignore-files while we're at it.
Side note: there's a lot of room for improvement here. In particular, if
we have a long list of filenames (importing a big archive), this will just
do a big stupid for-loop and add them one at a time. Maybe it should use
generate-list | xargs -0 git-update-idex --add --
instead.
Also, I think we should have a default ignore list if we don't find a
.git/info/exclude file. Ignoring "*.o" and ".*" by default would probably
be the right thing to do.
But I think this is a good first step.
Use the "-n" flag to just show the list of files to be added without
adding them.

As promised, this is the "big tool rename" patch. The primary differences
since 0.99.6 are:
(1) git-*-script are no more. The commands installed do not
have any such suffix so users do not have to remember if
something is implemented as a shell script or not.
(2) Many command names with 'cache' in them are renamed with
'index' if that is what they mean.
There are backward compatibility symblic links so that you and
Porcelains can keep using the old names, but the backward
compatibility support is expected to be removed in the near
future.
