This adds more cruft to diff --git header to record the blob SHA1 and
the mode the patch/diff is intended to be applied against, to help the
receiving end fall back on a three-way merge. The new header looks
like this:
diff --git a/apply.c b/apply.c
index 7be5041..8366082 100644
--- a/apply.c
+++ b/apply.c

// --stat does just a diffstat, and doesn't actually apply
+// --show-index-info shows the old and new index info for...
...
Upon receiving such a patch, if the patch did not apply cleanly to the
target tree, the recipient can try to find the matching old objects in
her object database and create a temporary tree, apply the patch to
that temporary tree, and attempt a 3-way merge between the patched
temporary tree and the target tree using the original temporary tree
as the common ancestor.
The patch lifts the code to compute the hash for an on-filesystem
object from update-index.c and makes it available to the diff output
routine.

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.

We use 'A' for added files instead of 'N' to make the it
visually easier to distinguish from 'M' now.
While we are at it, make the test scripts executable. Yes, I
know it does not matter because t/Makefile runs them explicitly
with "sh tXXXX-blah.sh", but being consistent is always better.

Clearly even Junio felt git "rename" header lines should say "from/to"
instead of "old/new", since he wrote the documentation that way.
This way it also matches "copy".
git-apply will accept both versions, at least for a while.

Earlier implementation had a major screw-up in the memory
management area. Rename/copy logic sometimes borrowed a pointer
to a structure without any provision for downstream to determine
which pointer is shared and which is not. This resulted in the
later clean-up code to sometimes double free such structure,
resulting in a segfault. This made -M and -C useless.
Another problem the earlier implementation had was that it
reordered the patches, and forced the logic to differentiate
renames and copies to depend on that particular order. This
problem was fixed by teaching rename/copy detection logic not to
do any reordering, and rename-copy differentiator not to depend
on the order of the patches. The diffs will leave rename/copy
detector in the same destination path order as the patch that
was fed into it. Some test vectors have been reordered to
accommodate this change.
It also adds a sanity check logic to the human-readable diff-raw
output to detect paths with embedded TAB and LF characters,
which cannot be expressed with that format. This idea came up
during a discussion with Chris Wedgwood.

Earlier round was not treating symbolic links carefully enough,
and would have produced diff output that renamed/copied then
edited the contents of a symbolic link, which made no practical
sense. Change it to detect only pure renames.
