pack-bitmap: use object_id when loading on-disk bitmaps
A pack bitmap file contains the index position of the commit for each
bitmap, which we then translate into an object id via
nth_packed_object_sha1(). In preparation for that function going away,
we can switch to the more type-safe nth_packed_object_id().
Note that even though the result ends up in an object_id this does incur
an extra copy of the hash (into our temporary object_id, and then into
the final malloc'd stored_bitmap struct). This shouldn't make any
measurable difference. If it did, we could avoid this copy _and_ the
copy of the rest of the items by allocating the stored_bitmap struct
beforehand and reading directly into it from the bitmap file. Or better
still, if this is a bottleneck, we could introduce an on-disk index to
the bitmap file so we don't have to read every single entry to use just
one of them. So it's not worth worrying about micro-optimizing out this
one hash copy.

pack-objects: use object_id struct in pack-reuse code
When the pack-reuse code is dumping an OFS_DELTA entry to a client that
doesn't support it, we re-write it as a REF_DELTA. To do so, we use
nth_packed_object_sha1() to get the oid, but that function is soon going
away in favor of the more type-safe nth_packed_object_id(). Let's switch
now in preparation.
Note that this does incur an extra hash copy (from the pack idx mmap to
the object_id and then to the output, rather than straight from mmap to
the output). But this is not worth worrying about. It's probably not
measurable even when it triggers, and this is fallback code that we
expect to trigger very rarely (since everybody supports OFS_DELTA these
days anyway).

pack-objects: read delta base oid into object_id struct
When we're considering reusing an on-disk delta, we get the oid of the
base as a pointer to unsigned char bytes of the hash, either into the
packfile itself (for REF_DELTA) or into the pack idx (using the revindex
to convert the offset into an index entry).
Instead, we'd prefer to use a more type-safe object_id as much as
possible. We can get the pack idx using nth_packed_object_id() instead.
For the packfile bytes, we can copy them out using oidread().
This doesn't even incur an extra copy overall, since the next thing we'd
always do with that pointer is pass it to can_reuse_delta(), which needs
an object_id anyway (and called oidread() itself). So this patch also
converts that function to take the object_id directly.
Note that we did previously use NULL as a sentinel value when the object
isn't a delta. We could probably get away with using the null oid for
this, but instead we'll use an explicit boolean flag, which should make
things more obvious for people reading the code later.

nth_packed_object_oid(): use customary integer return
Our nth_packed_object_sha1() function returns NULL for error. So when we
wrapped it with nth_packed_object_oid(), we kept the same semantics. But
it's a bit funny, because the caller actually passes in an out
parameter, and the pointer we return is just that same struct they
passed to us (or NULL).
It's not too terrible, but it does make the interface a little
non-idiomatic. Let's switch to our usual "0 for success, negative for
error" return value. Most callers either don't check it, or are
trivially converted. The one that requires the biggest change is
actually improved, as we can ditch an extra aliased pointer variable.
Since we are changing the interface in a subtle way that the compiler
wouldn't catch, let's also change the name to catch any topics in
flight. We can drop the 'o' and make it nth_packed_object_id(). That's
slightly shorter, but also less redundant since the 'o' stands for
"object" already.

mingw: add a helper function to attach GDB to the current process
When debugging Git, the criss-cross spawning of processes can make

To help debugging such things, we introduce the `open_in_gdb()` function

close as one can get); This will open a new MinTTY window with a GDB
that already attached to the current process.

In t0000, more precisely in its `test_bool_env` test case, there are two
subshells that are supposed to fail. To be even _more_ precise, they
fail by calling the `error` function, and that is okay, because it is in
a subshell, and it is expected that those two subshell invocations fail.
However, the `error` function also tries to finalize the JUnit XML (if
that XML was asked for, via `--write-junit-xml`. As a consequence, the
XML is edited to add a `time` attribute for the `testsuite` tag. And
since there are two expected `error` calls in addition to the final
`test_done`, the `finalize_junit_xml` function is called three times and
naturally the `time` attribute is added _three times_.
Azure Pipelines is not happy with that, complaining thusly:
##[warning]Failed to read D:\a\1\s\t\out\TEST-t0000-basic.xml. Error : 'time' is a duplicate attribute name. Line 2, position 82..
One possible way to address this would be to unset `write_junit_xml` in
the `test_bool_env` test case.
But that would be fragile, as other `error` calls in subshells could be
introduced.
So let's just modify `finalize_junit_xml` to remove any `time` attribute
before adding the authoritative one.

standard specifies. And we can easily just soak up arbitrary whitespace
there in our parser, so let's do so.
Note that the test covers both too little and too much whitespace, but
the "too much" case already works fine (because we later eat leading and
trailing whitespace from the values).

mailinfo: simplify parsing of header values
Our code to parse header values first checks to see if a line starts
with a header, and then manually skips past the matched string to find
the value. We can do this all in one step by modeling after
skip_prefix(), which returns a pointer into the string after the
parsing.
This lets us remove some repeated strings, and will also enable us to
parse more flexibly in a future patch.

mailinfo: treat header values as C strings
We read each header line into a strbuf, which means that we could
in theory handle header values with embedded NUL bytes. But in practice,
the values we parse out are passed to decode_header(), which uses
strstr(), strchr(), etc. And we would not expect such bytes anyway; they
are forbidden by RFC822, etc. and any non-ASCII characters should be
encoded with RFC2047 encoding.
So let's switch to using strbuf_addstr(), which saves us some length
computations (and will enable further cleanups in this code).
