The way Cygwin emulates a unix-domain socket, on top of which the
simple-ipc mechanism is implemented, can race with the program on
the other side that wants to use the socket, and briefly make it
appear as a regular file before lstat(2) starts reporting it as a
socket. We now have a workaround on the side that connects to a
unix domain socket.

"git maintenance run" learned to use system supplied scheduler

"git pull --ff-only" and "git pull --rebase --ff-only" should make
it a no-op to attempt pulling from a remote that is behind us, but
instead the command errored out by saying it was impossible to
fast-forward, which may technically be true, but not a useful thing
to diagnose as an error. This has been corrected.

The "-Y find-principals" option of ssh-keygen seems to be broken in
Debian's openssh-client 1:8.7p1-1, whereas it works fine in 1:8.4p1-5.
This causes several failures for GPGSSH tests. We fulfill the
prerequisite because generating the keys works fine, but actually
verifying a signature causes results ranging from bogus results to
ssh-keygen segfaulting.
We can find the broken version during the prereq check by feeding it
empty input. This should result in it complaining to stderr, but in the
broken version it triggers the segfault, causing the GPGSSH tests to be
skipped.

In eba1ba9 (maintenance: `git maintenance run` learned
`--scheduler=<scheduler>`, 2021-09-04), we introduced the ability to
specify a scheduler explicitly. This led to some extra checks around
whether an alternative scheduler was available. This added the
functionality of removing background maintenance from schedulers other
than the one selected.
On macOS, cron is technically available, but running 'crontab' triggers
a UI prompt asking for special permissions. This is the major reason why
launchctl is used as the default scheduler. The is_crontab_available()
method triggers this UI prompt, causing user disruption.
Remove this disruption by using an #ifdef to prevent running crontab
this way on macOS. This has the unfortunate downside that if a user
manually selects cron via the '--scheduler' option, then adjusting the
scheduler later will not remove the schedule from cron. The
'--scheduler' option ignores the is_available checks, which is how we
can get into this situation.
Extract the new check_crontab_process() method to avoid making the
'child' variable unused on macOS. The method is marked MAYBE_UNUSED
because it has no callers on macOS.

Cygwin emulates Unix sockets by writing files with custom contents and
then marking them as system files.
The tricky problem is that while the file is written and its `system`
bit is set, it is still identified as a file. This caused test failures
when Git is too fast looking for the Unix sockets and then complains
that there is a plain file in the way.
Let's work around this by adding a delayed retry loop, specifically for
Cygwin.

Revert the parse_options() prototype change in my recent
352e761388 (parse-options.[ch]: consistently use "enum
parse_opt_result", 2021-10-08) was incorrect. The parse_options()
function returns the number of argc elements that haven't been
processed, not "enum parse_opt_result".

As well as checking that the relevant functionality is available, the
GPGSSH prerequisite check creates the SSH keys that are used by the test
functions it gates. If these keys are created in a directory that
has a default Access Control List, the key files can inherit those
permissions.
This can result in a scenario where the private keys are created
successfully, so the prerequisite check passes and the tests are run,
but the key files have permissions that are too permissive, meaning
OpenSSH will refuse to load them and the tests will fail.
To avoid this happening, before creating the keys, clear any default ACL
set on the directory that will contain them. This step allowed to fail;
if setfacl isn't present, that's a very likely indicator that the
filesystem in question simply doesn't support default ACLs.
