read_index_from() takes a path argument for the location of the index
file.  For reading the shared index in split index mode however it just
ignores that path argument, and reads it from the gitdir of the current
repository.

This works as long as an index in the_repository is read.  Once that
changes, such as when we read the index of a submodule, or of a
different working tree than the current one, the gitdir of
the_repository will no longer contain the appropriate shared index,
and git will fail to read it.

For example t3007-ls-files-recurse-submodules.sh was broken with
GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX set in 188dce131f ("ls-files: use repository
object", 2017-06-22), and t7814-grep-recurse-submodules.sh was also
broken in a similar manner, probably by introducing struct repository
there, although I didn't track down the exact commit for that.

be489d02d2 ("revision.c: --indexed-objects add objects from all
worktrees", 2017-08-23) breaks with split index mode in a similar
manner, not erroring out when it can't read the index, but instead
carrying on with pruning, without taking the index of the worktree into
account.

Fix this by passing an additional gitdir parameter to read_index_from,
to indicate where it should look for and read the shared index from.

read_cache_from() defaults to using the gitdir of the_repository.  As it
is mostly a convenience macro, having to pass get_git_dir() for every
call seems overkill, and if necessary users can have more control by
using read_index_from().

An earlier update made it possible to use an on-stack in-core
lockfile structure (as opposed to having to deliberately leak an
on-heap one).  Many codepaths have been updated to take advantage
of this new facility.

* ma/lockfile-fixes:
  read_cache: roll back lock in `update_index_if_able()`
  read-cache: leave lock in right state in `write_locked_index()`
  read-cache: drop explicit `CLOSE_LOCK`-flag
  cache.h: document `write_locked_index()`
  apply: remove `newfd` from `struct apply_state`
  apply: move lockfile into `apply_state`
  cache-tree: simplify locking logic
  checkout-index: simplify locking logic
  tempfile: fix documentation on `delete_tempfile()`
  lockfile: fix documentation on `close_lock_file_gently()`
  treewide: prefer lockfiles on the stack
  sha1_file: do not leak `lock_file`

<title>cleanup: fix possible overflow errors in binary search</title>

<id>urn:sha1:19716b21a4255ecc7148b54ab2c78039c59f25bf</id>
<content type='text'>
A common mistake when writing binary search is to allow possible
integer overflow by using the simple average:

	mid = (min + max) / 2;

Instead, use the overflow-safe version:

	mid = min + (max - min) / 2;

This translation is safe since the operation occurs inside a loop
conditioned on "min &lt; max". The included changes were found using
the following git grep:

	git grep '/ *2;' '*.c'

Making this cleanup will prevent future review friction when a new
binary search is contructed based on existing code.

<id>urn:sha1:2954e5ec4361c6932593663859aa437583edb500</id>
<content type='text'>
After we have taken the lock using `LOCK_DIE_ON_ERROR`, we know that
`newfd` is non-negative. So when we check for exactly that property
before calling `write_locked_index()`, the outcome is guaranteed.

If we write and commit successfully, we set `newfd = -1`, so that we can
later avoid calling `rollback_lock_file` on an already-committed lock.
But we might just as well unconditionally call `rollback_lock_file()` --
it will be a no-op if we have already committed.

All in all, we use `newfd` as a bool and the only benefit we get from it
is that we can avoid calling a no-op. Remove `newfd` so that we have one
variable less to reason about.

<title>stop leaking lock structs in some simple cases</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bfffb48c5d520a5f181716b0330774a03cd3fa39</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that it's safe to declare a "struct lock_file" on the
stack, we can do so (and avoid an intentional leak). These
leaks were found by running t0000 and t0001 under valgrind
(though certainly other similar leaks exist and just don't
happen to be exercised by those tests).

Initializing the lock_file's inner tempfile with NULL is not
strictly necessary in these cases, but it's a good practice
to model.  It means that if we were to call a function like
rollback_lock_file() on a lock that was never taken in the
first place, it becomes a quiet noop (rather than undefined
behavior).

Likewise, it's always safe to rollback_lock_file() on a file
that has already been committed or deleted, since that
operation is a noop on an inactive lockfile (and that's why
the case in config.c can drop the "if (lock)" check as we
move away from using a pointer).

If we failed to write our new index file, we rollback our
lockfile to remove the temporary index. But if we fail
before we even get to the write step (because reading the
old index failed), we leave the lockfile in place, which
makes no sense.

In practice this hasn't been a big deal because failing at
write_index_as_tree() typically results in the whole program
exiting (and thus the tempfile handler kicking in and
cleaning up the files). But this function should
consistently take responsibility for the resources it
allocates.

Simplify the code for moving members inside of an array and make it more
robust by using the helper macro MOVE_ARRAY.  It calculates the size
based on the specified number of elements for us and supports NULL
pointers when that number is zero.  Raw memmove(3) calls with NULL can
cause the compiler to (over-eagerly) optimize out later NULL checks.

This patch was generated with contrib/coccinelle/array.cocci and spatch
(Coccinelle).
