grep/log: remove hidden --debug and --grep-debug options
Remove the hidden "grep --debug" and "log --grep-debug" options added
in 17bf35a3c7b (grep: teach --debug option to dump the parse tree,
2012-09-13).
At the time these options seem to have been intended to go along with
a documentation discussion and to help the author of relevant tests to
perform ad-hoc debugging on them[1].
Reasons to want this gone:
1. They were never documented, and the only (rather trivial) use of
them in our own codebase for testing is something I removed back
in e01b4dab01e (grep: change non-ASCII -i test to stop using
--debug, 2017-05-20).
2. Googling around doesn't show any in-the-wild uses I could dig up,
and on the Git ML the only mentions after the original discussion
seem to have been when they came up in unrelated diff contexts, or
that test commit of mine.
3. An exception to that is c581e4a7499 (grep: under --debug, show
whether PCRE JIT is enabled, 2019-08-18) where we added the
ability to dump out when PCREv2 has the JIT in effect.
The combination of that and my earlier b65abcafc7a (grep: use PCRE
v2 for optimized fixed-string search, 2019-07-01) means Git prints
this out in its most common in-the-wild configuration:
I.e. for each pattern we're considering for the and/or/--all-match
etc. debugging we'll now diligently spew out another identical line
saying whether the PCREv2 JIT is on or not.
I think that nobody's complained about that rather glaringly obviously
bad output says something about how much this is used, i.e. it's
not.
The need for this debugging aid for the composed grep/log patterns
seems to have passed, and the desire to dump the JIT config seems to
have been another one-off around the time we had JIT-related issues on
the PCREv2 codepath. That the original author of this debugging
facility seemingly hasn't noticed the bad output since then[2] is
probably some indicator.

gc: fix handling of crontab magic markers
On `git maintenance start`, we add a few entries to the user's cron
table. We wrap our entries using two magic markers, "# BEGIN GIT
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE" and "# END GIT MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE". At a later
`git maintenance stop`, we will go through the table and remove these
lines. Or rather, we will remove the "BEGIN" marker, the "END" marker
and everything between them.
Alas, we have a bug in how we detect the "END" marker: we don't. As we
loop through all the lines of the crontab, if we are in the "old
region", i.e., the region we're aiming to remove, we make an early
`continue` and don't get as far as checking for the "END" marker. Thus,
once we've seen our "BEGIN", we remove everything until the end of the
file.
Rewrite the logic for identifying these markers. There are four cases
that are mutually exclusive: The current line starts a region or it ends
it, or it's firmly within the region, or it's outside of it (and should
be printed).

git gui's main window, it's not acceptable for them to have grey backgrounds on

To work around this, simply use non-themed widgets for all labels on Mac. This
is not a big problem because labels don't look extremely different between the
themed and non-themed versions. There are subtle differences, but they are not
as bad as having the wrong background color.

t/perf: fix test_export() failure with BSD `sed`
test_perf() runs each test in its own subshell which makes it difficult
to persist variables between tests. test_export() addresses this
shortcoming by grabbing the values of specified variables after a test
runs but before the subshell exits, and writes those values to a file
which is loaded into the environment of subsequent tests.
To grab the values to be persisted, test_export() pipes the output of
the shell's builtin `set` command through `sed` which plucks them out
using a regular expression along the lines of `s/^(var1|var2)/.../p`.
Unfortunately, though, this use of alternation is not portable. For
instance, BSD-lineage `sed` (including macOS `sed`) does not support it
in the default "basic regular expression" mode (BRE). It may be possible
to enable "extended regular expression" mode (ERE) in some cases with
`sed -E`, however, `-E` is neither portable nor part of POSIX.
Fortunately, alternation is unnecessary in this case and can easily be
avoided, so replace it with a series of simple expressions such as
`s/^var1/.../p;s/^var2/.../p`.
While at it, tighten the expressions so they match the variable names
exactly rather than matching prefixes (i.e. use `s/^var1=/.../p`).
If the requirements of test_export() become more complex in the future,
then an alternative would be to replace `sed` with `perl` which supports
alternation on all platforms, however, the simple elimination of
alternation via multiple `sed` expressions suffices for the present.

It complains about a lot of other similarly unreachable code, e.g. a

both of whom have "return" statements. Those are also genuine
