The environment is modified in most surprising circumstances, and not
all of them are under Git's control. For example, calling
curl_global_init() on Windows will ensure that the CHARSET variable is
set, adding one if necessary.
While the previous commit worked around crashes triggered by such
outside changes of the environment by relaxing the requirement that the
environment be terminated by a NULL pointer, the other assumption made
by `mingw_getenv()` and `mingw_putenv()` is that the environment is
sorted, for efficient lookup via binary search.
Let's make real sure that our environment is intact before querying or
modifying it, and reinitialize our idea of the environment if necessary.
With this commit, before working on the environment we look briefly for
indicators that the environment was modified outside of our control, and
to ensure that it is terminated with a NULL pointer and sorted again in
that case.
Note: the indicators are maybe not sufficient. For example, when a
variable is removed, it will not be noticed. It might also be a problem
if outside changes to the environment result in a modified `environ`
pointer: it is unclear whether such a modification could result in a
problem when `mingw_putenv()` needs to `realloc()` the environment
buffer.
For the moment, however, the current fix works well enough, so let's
only face the potential problems when (and if!) they occur.

Outside of our Windows-specific code, the end of the environment can be
marked also by a pointer to a NUL character, not only by a NULL pointer
as our code assumed so far.
That led to a buffer overrun in `make_environment_block()` when running
`git-remote-https` in `mintty` (because `curl_global_init()` added the
`CHARSET` environment variable *outside* of `mingw_putenv()`, ending the
environment in a pointer to an empty string).
Side note for future debugging on Windows: when running programs in
`mintty`, the standard input/output/error is not connected to a Win32
Console, but instead is pipe()d. That means that even stderr may not be
written completely before a crash, but has to be fflush()ed explicitly.
For example, when debugging crashes, the developer should insert an
`fflush(stderr);` at the end of the `error()` function defined in
usage.c.

It is unlikely that we have an empty environment, ever, but *if* we do,
when `environ_size - 1` is passed to `bsearchenv()` it is misinterpreted
as a real large integer.
To make the code truly defensive, refuse to do anything at all if the
size is negative (which should not happen, of course).

The `git_terminal_prompt()` function expects the terminal window to be
attached to a Win32 Console. However, this is not the case with terminal
windows other than `cmd.exe`'s, e.g. with MSys2's own `mintty`.
Non-cmd terminals such as `mintty` still have to have a Win32 Console
to be proper console programs, but have to hide the Win32 Console to
be able to provide more flexibility (such as being resizeable not only
vertically but also horizontally). By writing to that Win32 Console,
`git_terminal_prompt()` manages only to send the prompt to nowhere and
to wait for input from a Console to which the user has no access.
This commit introduces a function specifically to support `mintty` -- or
other terminals that are compatible with MSys2's `/dev/tty` emulation. We
use the `TERM` environment variable as an indicator for that: if the value
starts with "xterm" (such as `mintty`'s "xterm_256color"), we prefer to
let `xterm_prompt()` handle the user interaction.
To handle the case when standard input/output are redirected – as is the
case when pushing via HTTPS: `git-remote-https`' standard input and
output are pipes from/to the main Git executable – we make use of the
`MSYS_TTY_HANDLES` environment variable that was introduced to
fix another bug in MSys2-based Git: this environment variable contains
the Win32 `HANDLE`s of the standard input, output and error as originally
passed from MSys2 to the Git executable, enclosed within space
characters, skipping handles that do not refer to the terminal window
(e.g. when they were redirected). We will only use those handles when
that environment variable lists all three handles because then we can be
100% certain that we are running inside a terminal window, and that we
know exactly which Win32 handles to use to communicate with it.

If we use 'eval exec $opt $cmdp $args' to execute git command,
tcl engine will convert the output of the git comand with the rule
system default code page to unicode.
But cp936 -> unicode conversion implicitly done by exec is not reversible.
So we have to use git_read instead.

Ensure that when passing a pipe, the gnulib poll replacement will not
return 0 before the timeout has passed.
Not obeying the timeout (and merely returning 0) causes pathological
behavior when preparing a packfile for a repository and taking a
long time to do so. If poll were to return 0 immediately, this would
cause keep-alives to get sent as quickly as possible until the packfile
was created. Such deviance from the standard would cause megabytes (or
more) of keep-alive packets to be sent.
GetTickCount is used as it is efficient, stable and monotonically
increasing. (Neither GetSystemTime nor QueryPerformanceCounter have
all three of these properties.)
The CVS tests expect `pwd` to return a POSIX-style directory. Let's skip
our MinGW-specific override to let `pwd` output a Windows-style directory
for that reason.

This reduces the disk footprint of a full Git for Windows setup
dramatically because on Windows, one cannot assume that hard links are
supported.
The net savings are calculated easily: the 32-bit `git.exe` file weighs
in with 7662 kB while the `git-wrapper.exe` file (modified to serve as a
drop-in replacement for builtins) weighs a scant 21 kB. At this point,
there are 109 builtins which results in a total of 813 MB disk space
being freed up by this commit.
Yes, that is really more than half a gigabyte.
