t5562: do not depend on /dev/zero
Revert "t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from generate_zero_bytes"
Some expected failures of git-http-backend leaves running its children
(receive-pack or upload-pack) which still hold opened descriptors
to act.err and with some probability they live long enough to write
there their failure messages after next test has already truncated
the files. This causes occasional failures of the test script.
Avoid the issue by using separated output and error file for each test,
apprending the test number to their name.

In cc95bc2025 (t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from
generate_zero_bytes, 2019-02-09), we replaced usage of /dev/zero (which
is not available on NonStop, apparently) by a Perl script snippet to
generate NUL bytes.
Sadly, it does not seem to work on NonStop, as t5562 reportedly hangs.
Worse, this also hangs in the Ubuntu 16.04 agents of the CI builds on
Azure Pipelines: for some reason, the Perl script snippet that is run
via `generate_zero_bytes` in t5562's 'CONTENT_LENGTH overflow ssite_t'
test case tries to write out an infinite amount of NUL bytes unless a
broken pipe is encountered, that snippet never encounters the broken
pipe, and keeps going until the build times out.
Oddly enough, this does not reproduce on the Windows and macOS agents,
nor in a local Ubuntu 18.04.
This developer tried for a day to figure out the exact circumstances
under which this hang happens, to no avail, the details remain a
mystery.
In the end, though, what counts is that this here change incidentally
fixes that hang (maybe also on NonStop?). Even more positively, it gets
rid of yet another unnecessary Perl invocation.

It was reported [1] that NonStop platform does not have /dev/zero.
The test uses /dev/zero as a dummy input. Passing case (http-backed
failed because of too big input size) should not be reading anything
from it. If http-backend would erroneously try to read any data
returning EOF probably would be even safer than providing some
meaningless data.
Replace /dev/zero with /dev/null to avoid issues with platforms which do
not have /dev/zero.

Revert cc95bc20 ("t5562: replace /dev/zero with a pipe from
generate_zero_bytes", 2019-02-09), as not feeding anything to the
command is a better way to test it.
'root commit' is usually translated as 'Root-Commit'. But in one
occasion it‘s translated as 'Basis-Commit' which is the translation
for 'base commit'.

Running up to v2.21.0, we fixed two bugs that were made prominent by the
Windows-specific change to retain copies of only the 30 latest getenv()
calls' returned strings, invalidating any copies of previous getenv()
calls' return values.
While this really shines a light onto bugs of the form where we hold
onto getenv()'s return values without copying them, it is also a real
problem for users.
And even if Jeff King's patches merged via 773e408881 (Merge branch
'jk/save-getenv-result', 2019-01-29) provide further work on that front,
we are far from done. Just one example: on Windows, we unset environment
variables when spawning new processes, which potentially invalidates
strings that were previously obtained via getenv(), and therefore we
have to duplicate environment values that are somehow involved in
spawning new processes (e.g. GIT_MAN_VIEWER in show_man_page()).
We do not have a chance to investigate, let address, all of those issues
in time for v2.21.0, so let's at least help Windows users by increasing
the number of getenv() calls' return values that are kept valid. The
number 64 was determined by looking at the average number of getenv()
calls per process in the entire test suite run on Windows (which is
around 40) and then adding a bit for good measure. And it is a power of
two (which would have hit yesterday's theme perfectly).

Fix a recently introduced regression in c762aada1a ("rebase -x: sanity
check command", 2019-01-29) triggered when running the tests with
GIT_TEST_REBASE_USE_BUILTIN=false. See 62c23938fa ("tests: add a
special setup where rebase.useBuiltin is off", 2018-11-14) for how
that test mode works.
As discussed on-list[1] it's not worth it to implement the sanity
check in the legacy rebase code, we plan to remove it after the 2.21
release. So let's do the bare minimum to make the tests pass under the
GIT_TEST_REBASE_USE_BUILTIN=false special setup.

In `git version --build-options`, we report also the CPU, but in Git for
Windows we actually cross-compile the 32-bit version in a 64-bit Git for
Windows, so we cannot rely on the auto-detected value.
In 3815f64b0d (mingw: fix CPU reporting in `git version
--build-options`, 2019-02-07), we fixed this by a Windows-only
workaround, making use of magic pre-processor constants, which works in
GCC, but most likely not all C compilers.
As pointed out by Eric Sunshine, there is a better way, anyway: to set
the Makefile variable HOST_CPU explicitly for cross-compiled Git. So
let's do that!

Avoid a bug in dash that's been fixed ever since its
ec2c84d ("[PARSER] Fix clobbering of checkkwd", 2011-03-15)[1] first
released with dash v0.5.7 in July 2011. This failing test was
introduced in 5f9674243d ("config: add --expiry-date", 2017-11-18).
This fixes 1/2 tests failing on Debian Lenny & Squeeze. The other
failure is due to 1b42f45255 ("git-svn: apply "svn.pathnameencoding"
before URL encoding", 2016-02-09).
The dash bug is triggered by this test because the heredoc contains a
command embedded in "$()" with a "{}" block coming right after
it. Refactoring the "$()" to e.g. be a variable that was set earlier
will also work around it, but let's instead break up the "EOF" and the
"{}".
An earlier version of this patch[2] mitigated the issue by breaking
the "$()" out of the "{}" block, that worked, but just because it
broke up the "EOF" and "{}" block. Putting e.g. "echo &&" between the
two would also work.

Since commit 7db118303a (unpack_trees: fix breakage when o->src_index !=
o->dst_index - 2018-04-23) and changes in merge code to use separate
index_state for source and destination, when doing a merge with split
index activated, we may run into this line in unpack_trees():
o->result.split_index = init_split_index(&o->result);
This is by itself not wrong. But this split index information is not
fully populated (and it's only so when move_cache_to_base_index() is
called, aka force splitting the index, or loading index_state from a
file). Both "base_oid" and "base" in this case remain null.
So when writing the main index down, we link to this index with null
oid (default value after init_split_index()), which also means "no split
index" internally. This triggers an incorrect base index refresh:
warning: could not freshen shared index '.../sharedindex.0{40}'
This patch makes sure we will not refresh null base_oid (because the
file is never there). It also makes sure not to write "link" extension
with null base_oid in the first place (no point having it at
all). Read code already has protection against null base_oid.
There is also another side fix in remove_split_index() that causes a
crash when doing "git update-index --no-split-index" when base_oid in
the index file is null. In this case we will not load
istate->split_index->base but we dereference it anyway and are rewarded
with a segfault. This should not happen anymore, but it's still wrong to
dereference a potential NULL pointer, especially when we do check for
NULL pointer in the next code.

There are platforms (e.g. NonStop) that lack /dev/zero; use the
generate_zero_bytes helper we just introduced to append stream
of NULs at the end of the file.
The original, even though it uses "dd seek=... count=..." to make it
look like it is overwriting the middle part of an existing file, has
truncated the file before this step with another use of "dd", which
may make it tricky to see why this rewrite is a correct one.
