This fixes the bug uncovered by the tests added in the previous two patches.
When an existing notes ref was loaded into the fast-import machinery, the
num_notes counter associated with that ref remained == 0, even though the
true number of notes in the loaded ref was higher. This caused a fanout
level of 0 to be used, although the actual fanout of the tree could be > 0.
Manipulating the notes tree at an incorrect fanout level causes removals to
silently fail, and modifications of existing notes to instead produce an
additional note (leaving the old object in place at a different fanout level).
This patch fixes the bug by explicitly counting the number of notes in the
notes tree whenever it looks like the num_notes counter could be wrong (when
num_notes == 0). There may be false positives (i.e. triggering the counting
when the notes tree is truly empty), but in those cases, the counting should
not take long.

The previous patch exposed a bug in fast-import where _removing_ an existing
note fails (when that note resides on a non-zero fanout level, and was added
prior to this fast-import run).
This patch demostrates the same issue when _changing_ an existing note
(subject to the same circumstances).

There is a bug in fast-import where the fanout levels of an existing notes
tree being loaded into the fast-import machinery is disregarded. Instead, any
tree loaded is assumed to have a fanout level of 0. If the true fanout level
is deeper, any attempt to remove a note from that tree will silently fail
(as the note will not be found at fanout level 0).
However, this bug was covered up by the way in which the t9301 testcase was
written: When generating the fast-import commands to test mass removal of
notes, we appended these commands to an already existing 'input' file which
happened to already contain the fast-import commands used in the previous
subtest to generate the very same notes tree. This would normally be harmless
(but suboptimal) as the notes created were identical to the notes already
present in the notes tree. But the act of repeating all the notes additions
caused the internal fast-import data structures to recalculate the fanout,
instead of hanging on to the initial (incorrect) fanout (that causes the bug
described above). Thus, the subsequent removal of notes in the same 'input'
file would succeed, thereby covering up the bug described above.
This patch creates a new 'input' file instead of appending to the file from
the previous subtest. Thus, we end up properly testing removal of notes that
were added by a previous fast-import command. As a side effect, the notes
removal can no longer refer to commits using the marks set by the previous
fast-import run, instead the commits names must be referenced directly.
The underlying fast-import bug is still present after this patch, but now we
have at least uncovered it. Therefore, the affected subtests are labeled as
expected failures until the underlying bug is fixed.

* maint-1.7.0:
fast-import: introduce "feature notes" command
fast-import: clarify documentation of "feature" command
Conflicts:
Documentation/git-fast-import.txt

Here is a 'feature' command for streams to use to require support for
the notemodify (N) command.
When the 'feature' facility was introduced (v1.7.0-rc0~95^2~4,
2009-12-04), the notes import feature was old news (v1.6.6-rc0~21^2~8,
2009-10-09) and it was not obvious it deserved to be a named feature.
But now that is clear, since all major non-git fast-import backends
lack support for it.
Details: on git version with this patch applied, any "feature notes"
command in the features/options section at the beginning of a stream
will be treated as a no-op. On fast-import implementations without
the feature (and older git versions), the command instead errors out
with a message like
This version of fast-import does not support feature notes.
So by declaring use of notes at the beginning of a stream, frontends
can avoid wasting time and other resources when the backend does not
support notes. (This would be especially important for backends that
do not support rewinding history after a botched import.)

When using combine_notes_concatenate() to concatenate notes, it currently
ensures exactly one newline character between the given notes. However,
when using builtin/notes.c:create_note() to concatenate notes (e.g. by
'git notes append'), it adds a newline character to the trailing newline
of the preceding notes object, thus resulting in _two_ newlines (aka. a
blank line) separating contents of the two notes.
This patch brings combine_notes_concatenate() into consistency with
builtin/notes.c:create_note(), by ensuring exactly _two_ newline characters
between concatenated notes.
The patch also changes a few notes-related selftests accordingly.

This patch adds testcases verifying correct behaviour in several scenarios
regarding fast-import of notes:
- using a mixture of 'N' and 'M' commands
- updating existing notes
- concatenation of notes
- 'deleteall' also removes notes
- fanout schemes is added/removed when needed
- git-fast-import's branch unload/reload preserves notes
- non-notes are not clobbered in the presence of notes
