commit_locked_index(), when writing to an alternate index file,
duplicates (poorly) the code in commit_lock_file(). And anyway, it
shouldn't have to know so much about the internal workings of lockfile
objects. So extract a new function commit_lock_file_to() that does the
work common to the two functions, and call it from both
commit_lock_file() and commit_locked_index().

For now, we still make sure to allocate at least PATH_MAX characters
for the strbuf because resolve_symlink() doesn't know how to expand
the space for its return value. (That will be fixed in a moment.)
Another alternative would be to just use a strbuf as scratch space in
lock_file() but then store a pointer to the naked string in struct
lock_file. But lock_file objects are often reused. By reusing the
same strbuf, we can avoid having to reallocate the string most times
when a lock_file object is reused.

Because remove_lock_file() can be called any time by the signal
handler, it is important that any lock_file objects that are in the
lock_file_list are always in a valid state. And since lock_file
objects are often reused (but are never removed from lock_file_list),
that means we have to be careful whenever mutating a lock_file object
to always keep it in a well-defined state.
This was formerly not the case, because part of the state was encoded
by setting lk->filename to the empty string vs. a valid filename. It
is wrong to assume that this string can be updated atomically; for
example, even
strcpy(lk->filename, value)
is unsafe. But the old code was even more reckless; for example,
strcpy(lk->filename, path);
if (!(flags & LOCK_NODEREF))
resolve_symlink(lk->filename, max_path_len);
strcat(lk->filename, ".lock");
During the call to resolve_symlink(), lk->filename contained the name
of the file that was being locked, not the name of the lockfile. If a
signal were raised during that interval, then the signal handler would
have deleted the valuable file!
We could probably continue to use the filename field to encode the
state by being careful to write characters 1..N-1 of the filename
first, and then overwrite the NUL at filename[0] with the first
character of the filename, but that would be awkward and error-prone.
So, instead of using the filename field to determine whether the
lock_file object is active, add a new field "lock_file::active" for
this purpose. Be careful to set this field only when filename really
contains the name of a file that should be deleted on cleanup.

We often represent our strings as a counted string, i.e. a pair of
the pointer to the beginning of the string and its length, and the
string may not be NUL terminated to that length.
To compare a pair of such counted strings, unpack-trees.c and
read-cache.c implement their own name_compare() functions
identically. In addition, the cache_name_compare() function in
read-cache.c is nearly identical. The only difference is when one
string is the prefix of the other string, in which case
name_compare() returns -1/+1 to show which one is longer, and
cache_name_compare() returns the difference of the lengths to show
the same information.
Unify these three functions by using the implementation from
cache_name_compare(). This does not make any difference to the
existing and future callers, as they must be paying attention only
to the sign of the returned value (and not the magnitude) because
the original implementations of these two functions return values
returned by memcmp(3) when the one string is not a prefix of the
other string, and the only thing memcmp(3) guarantees its callers is
the sign of the returned value, not the magnitude.

This split-index mode is designed to keep write cost proportional to
the number of changes the user has made, not the size of the work
tree. (Read cost is another matter, to be dealt separately.)
This mode stores index info in a pair of $GIT_DIR/index and
$GIT_DIR/sharedindex.<SHA-1>. sharedindex is large and unchanged over
time while "index" is smaller and updated often. Format details are in
index-format.txt, although not everything is implemented in this
patch.
Shared indexes are not automatically removed, because it's unclear if
the shared index is needed by any (even temporary) indexes by just
looking at it. After a while you'll collect stale shared indexes. The
good news is one shared index is useable for long, until
$GIT_DIR/index becomes too big and sluggish that the new shared index
must be created.
The safest way to clean shared indexes is to turn off split index
mode, so shared files are all garbage, delete them all, then turn on
split index mode again.

Read-only operations such as "git status" that internally refreshes
the index write out the refreshed index to the disk to optimize
future accesses to the working tree, but this could race with a
"read-write" operation that modify the index while it is running.
Detect such a race and avoid overwriting the index.
Duy raised a good point that we may need to do the same for the
normal writeout codepath, not just the "opportunistic" update
codepath. While that is true, nobody sane would be running two
simultaneous operations that are clearly write-oriented competing
with each other against the same index file. So in that sense that
can be done as a less urgent follow-up for this topic.
* ym/fix-opportunistic-index-update-race:
read-cache.c: verify index file before we opportunistically update it
wrapper.c: add xpread() similar to xread()
Before we proceed to opportunistically update the index (often done
by an otherwise read-only operation like "git status" and "git diff"
that internally refreshes the index), we must verify that the
current index file is the same as the one that we read earlier
before we took the lock on it, in order to avoid a possible race.
In the example below git-status does "opportunistic update" and
git-rebase updates the index, but the race can happen in general.
1. process A calls git-rebase (or does anything that uses the index)
2. process A applies 1st commit
3. process B calls git-status (or does anything that updates the index)
4. process B reads index
5. process A applies 2nd commit
6. process B takes the lock, then overwrites process A's changes.
7. process A applies 3rd commit
As an end result the 3rd commit will have a revert of the 2nd commit.
When process B takes the lock, it needs to make sure that the index
hasn't changed since step 4.
