All other error messages from notes use stderr. Do the same when
alerting users of an unresolved notes merge.
Fix the output redirection in t3310 and t3320 as well. Previously, the
tests directed output to a file, but stderr was either not captured or
not sent to the file due to the order of the redirection operators.

Mark strings of messages for the user as translatable.
Update tests t3310-notes-merge-manual-resolve.sh and
t3320-notes-merge-worktrees.sh to reflect new translatable messages.
Tests that grep for .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE reflect the translatable
string "Automatic notes merge failed. Fix conflicts in %s and [...]".

When a manual notes merge is committed or aborted, we need to remove the
temporary worktree at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. However, removing the
entire directory is not good if the user ran the 'git notes merge
--commit/--abort' from within that directory. On Windows, the directory
removal would simply fail, while on POSIX systems, users would suddenly
find themselves in an invalid current directory.
Therefore, instead of deleting the entire directory, we delete everything
_within_ the directory, and leave the (empty) directory in place.
This would cause a subsequent notes merge to abort, complaining about a
previous - unfinished - notes merge (due to the presence of
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE), so we also need to adjust this check to only
trigger when .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE is non-empty.
Finally, adjust the t3310 manual notes merge testcases to correctly handle
the existence of an empty .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory.

notes_merge_commit() only needs to list all entries (non-recursively)
under a directory, which can be easily accomplished with
opendir/readdir and would be more lightweight than read_directory().
read_directory() is designed to list paths inside a working
directory. Using it outside of its scope may lead to undesired effects.
Apparently, one of the undesired effects of read_directory() is that it
doesn't deal with being given absolute paths. This creates problems for
notes_merge_commit() when git_path() returns an absolute path, which
happens when the current working directory is in a subdirectory of the
.git directory.

The 'git notes merge' command expected to be run from the working
tree of the project being annotated, and did not anticipate getting
run inside $GIT_DIR/.
However, because we use $GIT_DIR/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE as a temporary
working space for the user to work on resolving conflicts, it is not
unreasonable for a user to run "git notes merge --commit" there. But
the command fails to do so.

When manually resolving a notes merge, if the merging ref has moved since
the merge started, we should fail to complete the merge, and alert the user
to what's going on.
This situation may arise if you start a 'git notes merge' which results in
conflicts, and you then update the current notes ref (using for example
'git notes add/copy/amend/edit/remove/prune', 'git update-ref', etc.),
before you get around to resolving the notes conflicts and calling
'git notes merge --commit'.
We detect this situation by comparing the first parent of the partial merge
commit (which was created when the merge started) to the current value of the
merging notes ref (pointed to by the .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF symref).
If we don't fail in this situation, the notes merge commit would overwrite
the updated notes ref, thus losing the changes that happened in the meantime.
The patch includes a testcase verifying that we fail correctly in this
situation.

When the notes merge conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE have been
resolved, we need to record a new notes commit on the appropriate notes
ref with the resolved notes.
This patch implements 'git notes merge --commit' which the user should
run after resolving conflicts in the notes merge worktree. This command
finalizes the notes merge by recombining the partial notes tree from
part 1 with the now-resolved conflicts in the notes merge worktree in a
merge commit, and updating the appropriate ref to this merge commit.
In order to correctly finalize the merge, we need to keep track of three
things:
- The partial merge result from part 1, containing the auto-merged notes.
This is now stored into a ref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_PARTIAL.
- The unmerged notes. These are already stored in
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE, thanks to part 1.
- The notes ref to be updated by the finalized merge result. This is now
stored in a symref called .git/NOTES_MERGE_REF.
In addition to "git notes merge --commit", which uses the above details
to create the finalized notes merge commit, this patch also implements
"git notes merge --reset", which aborts the ongoing notes merge by simply
removing the files/directory described above.
FTR, "git notes merge --commit" reuses "git notes merge --reset" to remove
the information described above (.git/NOTES_MERGE_*) after the notes merge
have been successfully finalized.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the two new options.
This patch has been improved by the following contributions:
- Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason: Fix nonsense sentence in --commit description
- Sverre Rabbelier: Rename --reset to --abort

Conflicts (that are to be resolved manually) are written into a special-
purpose working tree, located at .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE. Within this
directory, conflicting notes entries are stored (with conflict markers
produced by ll_merge()) using the SHA1 of the annotated object. The
.git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE directory will only contain the _conflicting_
note entries. The non-conflicting note entries (aka. the partial merge
result) are stored in 'local_tree', and the SHA1 of the resulting commit
is written to 'result_sha1'. The return value from notes_merge() is -1.
The user is told to edit the files within the .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE
directory in order to resolve the conflicts.
The patch also contains documentation and testcases for the correct setup
of .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE.
The next part will recombine the partial notes merge result with the
resolved conflicts in .git/NOTES_MERGE_WORKTREE to produce the complete
merge result.
