"git worktree" had a broken code that attempted to auto-fix
possible inconsistency that results from end-users moving a
worktree to different places without telling Git (the original
repository needs to maintain backpointers to its worktrees, but
"mv" run by end-users who are not familiar with that fact will
obviously not adjust them), which actually made things worse
when triggered.

Use msysGit's `git-wrapper` instead of the builtins. This works around
two issues:
- when the file system does not allow hard links, we would waste over
800 megabyte by having 109 copies of a multi-megabyte executable
- even when the file system allows hard links, the Windows Explorer
counts the disk usage as if it did not. Many users complained about
Git for Windows using too much space (when it actually did not). We
can easily avoid those user complaints by merging this branch.

The config variable branch.<branchname>.rebase is not only used by `git
pull`, but also by `git remote` when showing details about a remote.
Therefore, it needs to be taught to accept the newly-introduced
`interactive` value of said variable.

A couple of years ago, I found the need to collaborate on topic
branches that were rebased all the time, and I really needed to see
what I was rebasing when pulling, so I introduced an
interactively-rebasing pull.
The way builtin pull works, this change also supports the value
'interactive' for the 'branch.<name>.rebase' config variable, which
is a neat thing because users can now configure given branches for
interactively-rebasing pulls without having to type out the complete
`--rebase=interactive` option every time they pull.

To be precise: when the value of the environment variable is shorter than
its name, we have to move the remaining bytes *after* expanding the
environment variable: we would look for the wrong name otherwise.
When the value is longer than the name, we still need to move the bytes
out of the way first, to avoid overwriting them with the interpolated
text.

`$HOME/bin/` is quite convenient a place to put user-specific Git
helpers, such as credential or remote helpers.
When run in Git Bash, it is therefore already appended to the PATH;
Let's do the equivalent when run in Git CMD: when `git.exe` is
called, Git is told to look also for scripts and programs in
`$HOME/bin` (this does not modify Git CMD's `PATH`, of course).

The quoting rules of `cmd.exe` are really, really quirky. In particular,
if there are more than two quotes, the entire set of rules changes. That
is the reason why
CMD /C "C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\bash.exe" -l -i
works, but
CMD /C "C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\bash.exe" -l -i "test.sh"
fails with this error message:
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
The recommended fix is to pass the /S option to `cmd.exe` and surround
the entire command-line by an extra set of quotes. And here lies the
rub: for that to work, we have to append an extra quote. At the end of
the command-line. *After* the last argument was appended, if any.
This commit supports that use case by introducing the option
"APPEND_QUOTE". The intended usage is to use the following string
resource:
SHOW_CONSOLE=1 APPEND_QUOTE=1
@@COMSPEC@@ /S /C \"\"@@EXEPATH@@\\usr\\bin\\bash.exe\" --login -i
(Note that there are only three quotes on that command-line, the fourth
to be appended due to the `APPEND_QUOTE` setting.)
This is (1/3) to fix https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/396

The Git wrapper is also used as a redirector for Git for Windows'
bin\bash.exe dropin: for backwards-compatibility, bin\bash.exe exists
and simply sets up the environment variables before executing the
*real* bash.
However, due to our logic to use the directory in which the `.exe`
lives as top-level directory (or one directory below for certain, known
basenames such as `git.exe` and `gitk.exe`), the `PATH` environment
variable was prefixed with the `/bin/bin` and `/bin/mingw/bin`
directories -- which makes no sense.
Instead, let's just auto-detect the top-level directory in the common
case.

We should not conflate the 'exepath' with the 'top-level
directory'. The former should be the directory in which the executable
lives while the latter should be the top-level directory ("POSIX root
directory") as far as Git is concerned.

Windows 7 allows users to pin running applications to the task bar. By
setting the application ID, multiple processes can share a single task
bar entry, and this is exactly what we need for `git-bash.exe` which
wants to share the task bar entry with the `mintty.exe` instance it
launches.

The idea of `git-bash.exe` automatically running the Git Bash in the
home directory was to support the start menu item `Git Bash` (which
should not start in C:\Program Files\Git, but in $HOME), and to make
that behavior consistent with double-clicking in `git-bash.exe`
portable Git.
However, it turns out that one of the main use cases of portable Git is
to run the Git Bash in GitHub for Windows, and it should start in the
top-level directory of a given project. Therefore, the concern to keep
double-clicking `git-bash.exe` consistent with the start menu item was
actually unfounded.
As to the start menu item: it can easily be changed to launch
`git-bash.exe` with a command-line option. So let's introduce the
--cd-to-home option for that purpose.
As a bonus, the Git wrapper can now also serve as a drop-in redirector
/bin/bash.exe to provide backwards-compatibility of Git for Windows 2.x
with 1.x: some 3rd-party software expects to find that executable there,
and it also expects it to leave the working directory unchanged.

By embedding string resources into the Git wrapper executable, it
can be configured to execute custom commands (after setting up the
environment in the way required for Git for Windows to work properly).
This feature is used e.g. for `git-bash.exe` which launches a Bash in
the configured terminal window.
Here, we introduce command-line options to override those string
resources. That way, a user can call `git-bash.exe` (which is a copy of
the Git wrapper with `usr\bin\bash.exe --login -i` embedded as string
resource) with command-line options that will override what command is
run.
ConEmu, for example, might want to call
...\git-bash.exe --needs-console --no-hide --minimal-search-path ^
--command=usr\\bin\\bash.exe --login -i
In particular, the following options are supported now:
--command=<command-line>::
Executes `<command-line>` instead of the embedded string resource
--[no-]minimal-search-path::
Ensures that only `/cmd/` is added to the `PATH` instead of
`/mingw??/bin` and `/usr/bin/`, or not
--[no-]needs-console::
Ensures that there is a Win32 console associated with the spawned
process, or not
--[no-]hide::
Hides the console window, or not
