Git.pm: trust rev-parse to find bare repositories
When initializing a repository object, we run "git rev-parse --git-dir"
to let the C version of Git find the correct directory. But curiously,
if this fails we don't automatically say "not a git repository".
Instead, we do our own pure-perl check to see if we're in a bare
repository.
This makes little sense, as rev-parse will report both bare and non-bare
directories. This logic comes from d5c7721d58 (Git.pm: Add support for
subdirectories inside of working copies, 2006-06-24), but I don't see
any reason given why we can't just rely on rev-parse. Worse, because we
treat any non-error response from rev-parse as a non-bare repository,
we'll erroneously set the object's WorkingCopy, even in a bare
repository.
But it gets worse. Since 8959555cee (setup_git_directory(): add an owner
check for the top-level directory, 2022-03-02), it's actively wrong (and
dangerous). The perl code doesn't implement the same ownership checks.
And worse, after "finding" the bare repository, it sets GIT_DIR in the
environment, which tells any subsequent Git commands that we've
confirmed the directory is OK, and to trust us. I.e., it re-opens the
vulnerability plugged by 8959555cee when using Git.pm's repository
discovery code.
We can fix this by just relying on rev-parse to tell us when we're not
in a repository, which fixes the vulnerability. Furthermore, we'll ask
its --is-bare-repository function to tell us if we're bare or not, and
rely on that.

Git.pm: add semicolon after catch statement
When attempting to initialize a repository object in an unsafe
directory, a syntax error is reported (Can't use string as a HASH ref
while strict refs in use). Fix this runtime error by adding the required
semicolon after the catch statement.
Without the semicolon, the result of the following line (i.e., the
result of Cwd::abs_path) is passed as the third argument to Error.pm's
catch function. That function expects that its third argument,
$clauses, is a hash reference, and trying to access a string as a hash
reference is a fatal error.

The trace2 region around the call to lazy_bitmap_for_commit() in
bitmap_for_commit() was added in 28cd730680d (pack-bitmap: prepare to
read lookup table extension, 2022-08-14). While adding trace2 regions is
typically helpful for tracking performance, this method is called
possibly thousands of times as a commit walk explores commit history
looking for a matching bitmap. When trace2 output is enabled, this
region is emitted many times and performance is throttled by that
output.
For now, remove these regions entirely.
This is a critical path, and it would be valuable to measure that the
time spent in bitmap_for_commit() does not increase when using the
commit lookup table. The best way to do that would be to use a mechanism
that sums the time spent in a region and reports a single value at the
end of the process. This technique was introduced but not merged by [1]
so maybe this example presents some justification to revisit that
approach.
To help with the 'git blame' output in this region, add a comment that
warns against adding a trace2 region. Delete a test from t5310 that used
that trace output to check that this lookup optimization was activated.
To create this kind of test again in the future, the stopwatch traces
mentioned earlier could be used as a signal that we activated this code
path.

cmd-list.perl: fix identifying man sections
We attribute each documentation text file to a man section by finding a
line in the file that looks like "gitfoo(<digit>)". Commit cc75e556a9
("scalar: add to 'git help -a' command list", 2022-09-02) updated this
logic to look not only for "gitfoo" but also "scalarfoo". In doing so,
it forgot to account for the fact that after the updated regex has found
a match, the man section is no longer to be found in `$1` but now lives
in `$2`.
This makes our git(1) manpage look as follows:
Main porcelain commands
git-add(git)
Add file contents to the index.
[...]
gitk(git)
The Git repository browser.
scalar(scalar)
A tool for managing large Git repositories.
Restore the man sections by not capturing the (git|scalar) part of the
match into `$1`.
As noted by Ævar [1], we could even match any "foo" rather than just
"gitfoo" and "scalarfoo", but that's a larger change. For now, just fix
the regression in cc75e556a9.

Since commit c54980ab83 (list-objects-filter: convert filter_spec to a
strbuf, 2022-09-11), building with SANITIZE=undefined triggers an error
in t5616.
The problem is that we end up with a strbuf that has been
zero-initialized instead of via STRBUF_INIT. Feeding that strbuf to
strbuf_addbuf() in list_objects_filter_copy() means we will call memcpy
like:
memcpy(some_actual_buffer, NULL, 0);
This works on most systems because we're copying zero bytes, but it is
technically undefined behavior to ever pass NULL to memcpy.
Even though c54980ab83 is where the bug manifests, that is only because
we switched away from a string_list, which is OK with being
zero-initialized (though it may cause other problems by not duplicating
the strings, it happened to be OK in this instance).
The actual bug is caused by the commit before that, 2a01bdedf8
(list-objects-filter: add and use initializers, 2022-09-11). There we
consistently initialize the top-level filter structs, but we forgot the
dynamically allocated ones we stick in filter_options->sub when creating
combined filters.
Note that we need to fix two spots here: where we parse a "combine:"
filter, but also where we transform from a single-filter into a combined
one after seeing multiple "--filter" options. In the second spot, we'll
do some minor refactoring to avoid repeating our very-long array index.

t/Makefile: remove 'test-results' on 'make clean'
The 't/test-results' directory and its contents are by-products of the

The 'clean' target in 't/Makefile' was not directly responsible for
removing the 'test-results' directory, but relied on its dependency
'clean-except-prove-cache' to do that [1]. ee65b194d broke this,
because it only removed the 'rm -r test-results' command from the

target, resulting in stray 't/test-results' directories.
Add that missing cleanup command to 't/Makefile', and to all

version: fix builtin linking & documentation
Like most builtins, 'version' is documented in a corresponding
'Documentation/git-version.txt' and can be invoked with 'git version'.
However, the 'check-docs' Makefile target showed that it was "removed but
documented: git-version." This was cause by the fact that it is not built as
a standalone 'git-version' executable, therefore appearing "removed" to
'check-docs'.
Without a precedent for documented builtins that aren't built into an
executable *or* any clear reason why a standalone 'git-version' shouldn't
exist, the 'check-docs' error appears to correctly identify an issue. To
correct that mismatch, add 'git-version' to the 'BUILT_INS' list in the root
Makefile (indicating that the 'cmd_version()' function appears in a file
that is *not* 'builtin/version.c'). Additionally, to avoid the "no link"

dirent, 2020-01-16)), but differs in that it is meant for use on arbitrary
