bundle-uri: fetch a list of bundles
When the content at a given bundle URI is not understood as a bundle (based on inspecting the initial content), then Git currently gives up and ignores that content. Independent bundle providers may want to split up the bundle content into multiple bundles, but still make them available from a single URI. Teach Git to attempt parsing the bundle URI content as a Git config file providing the key=value pairs for a bundle list. Git then looks at the mode of the list to see if ANY single bundle is sufficient or if ALL bundles are required. The content at the selected URIs are downloaded and the content is inspected again, creating a recursive process. To guard the recursion against malformed or malicious content, limit the recursion depth to a reasonable four for now. This can be converted to a configured value in the future if necessary. The value of four is twice as high as expected to be useful (a bundle list is unlikely to point to more bundle lists). To test this scenario, create an interesting bundle topology where three incremental bundles are built on top of a single full bundle. By using a merge commit, the two middle bundles are "independent" in that they do not require each other in order to unbundle themselves. They each only need the base bundle. The bundle containing the merge commit requires both of the middle bundles, though. This leads to some interesting decisions when unbundling, especially when we later implement heuristics that promote downloading bundles until the prerequisite commits are satisfied.
