Callers of reencode_string() that re-encodes a string from one
encoding to another all used ad-hoc way to bypass the case where the
input and the output encodings are the same. Some did strcmp(),
some did strcasecmp(), yet some others when converting to UTF-8 used
is_encoding_utf8().
Introduce same_encoding() helper function to make these callers use
the same logic. Notably, is_encoding_utf8() has a work-around for
common misconfiguration to use "utf8" to name UTF-8 encoding, which
does not match "UTF-8" hence strcasecmp() would not consider the
same. Make use of it in this helper function.

Mac OS X mangles file names containing unicode on file systems HFS+,
VFAT or SAMBA. When a file using unicode code points outside ASCII
is created on a HFS+ drive, the file name is converted into
decomposed unicode and written to disk. No conversion is done if
the file name is already decomposed unicode.
Calling open("\xc3\x84", ...) with a precomposed "Ä" yields the same
result as open("\x41\xcc\x88",...) with a decomposed "Ä".
As a consequence, readdir() returns the file names in decomposed
unicode, even if the user expects precomposed unicode. Unlike on
HFS+, Mac OS X stores files on a VFAT drive (e.g. an USB drive) in
precomposed unicode, but readdir() still returns file names in
decomposed unicode. When a git repository is stored on a network
share using SAMBA, file names are send over the wire and written to
disk on the remote system in precomposed unicode, but Mac OS X
readdir() returns decomposed unicode to be compatible with its
behaviour on HFS+ and VFAT.
The unicode decomposition causes many problems:
- The names "git add" and other commands get from the end user may
often be precomposed form (the decomposed form is not easily input
from the keyboard), but when the commands read from the filesystem
to see what it is going to update the index with already is on the
filesystem, readdir() will give decomposed form, which is different.
- Similarly "git log", "git mv" and all other commands that need to
compare pathnames found on the command line (often but not always
precomposed form; a command line input resulting from globbing may
be in decomposed) with pathnames found in the tree objects (should
be precomposed form to be compatible with other systems and for
consistency in general).
- The same for names stored in the index, which should be
precomposed, that may need to be compared with the names read from
readdir().
NFS mounted from Linux is fully transparent and does not suffer from
the above.
As Mac OS X treats precomposed and decomposed file names as equal,
we can
- wrap readdir() on Mac OS X to return the precomposed form, and
- normalize decomposed form given from the command line also to the
precomposed form,
to ensure that all pathnames used in Git are always in the
precomposed form. This behaviour can be requested by setting
"core.precomposedunicode" configuration variable to true.
The code in compat/precomposed_utf8.c implements basically 4 new
functions: precomposed_utf8_opendir(), precomposed_utf8_readdir(),
precomposed_utf8_closedir() and precompose_argv(). The first three
are to wrap opendir(3), readdir(3), and closedir(3) functions.
The argv[] conversion allows to use the TAB filename completion done
by the shell on command line. It tolerates other tools which use
readdir() to feed decomposed file names into git.
When creating a new git repository with "git init" or "git clone",
"core.precomposedunicode" will be set "false".
The user needs to activate this feature manually. She typically
sets core.precomposedunicode to "true" on HFS and VFAT, or file
systems mounted via SAMBA.

The function strbuf_add_wrapped_text takes a NUL-terminated
string. This makes it annoying to wrap strings we have as a
pointer and a length.
Refactoring strbuf_add_wrapped_text and all of its
sub-functions to handle fixed-length strings turned out to
be really ugly. So this implementation is lame; it just
strdups the text and operates on the NUL-terminated version.
This should be fine as the strings we are wrapping are
generally pretty short. If it becomes a problem, we can
optimize later.

strbuf_add_wrapped_text() is called only from print_wrapped_text()
without a strbuf (in which case it writes its results to stdout).
At its only callsite, supply a strbuf, call strbuf_add_wrapped_text()
directly and remove the wrapper function.

utf8_width() function was doing two different things. To pick a
valid character from UTF-8 stream, and compute the display width of
that character. This splits the former to a separate function
pick_one_utf8_char().

Now, it returns the current column, does not add a newline, and you can
pass a negative indent, to indicate that the indent was already printed.
With this, you can actually continue in the middle of a paragraph, not
having to print everything into a buffer first.

People can spell config.commitencoding differently from what we
internally have ("utf-8") to mean UTF-8. Try to accept them and
treat them equally.

Introduce is_utf() to check if a text looks like it is encoded
in UTF-8, utf8_width() to count display width, and implements
print_wrapped_text() using them.
git-commit-tree warns if the commit message does not minimally
conform to the UTF-8 encoding when i18n.commitencoding is either
unset, or set to "utf-8".
