We frequently build Git using the `DEVELOPER=1` make setting as a
shortcut to enable all kinds of more stringent compiler warnings.
Those compiler warnings are relatively specific to GCC, though, so let's
try our best to translate them to the equivalent options to pass to MS
Visual C++'s `cl.exe`.

To build with MSVC, we "translate" GCC options to MSVC options, and part
of those options refer to the libraries to link into the final
executable. Currently, this part looks somewhat like this on Windows:
-lcurl -lnghttp2 -lidn2 -lssl -lcrypto -lssl -lcrypto -lgdi32
-lcrypt32 -lwldap32 -lz -lws2_32 -lexpat
Some of those are direct dependencies (such as curl and ssl) and others
are indirect (nghttp2 and idn2, for example, are dependencies of curl,
but need to be linked in for reasons).
We already handle the direct dependencies, e.g. `-liconv` is already
handled as adding `libiconv.lib` to the list of libraries to link
against.
Let's just ignore the remaining `-l*` options so that MSVC does not have
to warn us that it ignored e.g. the `/lnghttp2` option. We do that by
extending the clause that already "eats" the `-R*` options to also eat
the `-l*` options.

The entire idea of generating the VS solution makes only sense if we
generate it via Continuous Integration; otherwise potential users would
still have to download the entire Git for Windows SDK.
If we pre-generate the Visual Studio solution, Git can be built entirely
within Visual Studio, and the test scripts can be run in a regular Git
for Windows (e.g. the Portable Git flavor, which does not include a full
GCC toolchain and therefore weighs only about a tenth of Git for
Windows' SDK).
So let's just add a target in the Makefile that can be used to generate
said solution; The generated files will then be committed so that they
can be pushed to a branch ready to check out by Visual Studio users.
To make things even more useful, we also generate and commit other files
that are required to run the test suite, such as templates and
bin-wrappers: with this, developers can run the test suite in a regular
Git Bash after building the solution in Visual Studio.
Note: for this build target, we do not actually need to initialize the
`vcpkg` system, so we don't.

With this patch, Git can be built using the Microsoft toolchain, via:
make MSVC=1 [DEBUG=1]
Third party libraries are built from source using the open source
"vcpkg" tool set. See https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg
On a first build, the vcpkg tools and the third party libraries are
automatically downloaded and built. DLLs for the third party libraries
are copied to the top-level (and t/helper) directory to facilitate
debugging. See compat/vcbuild/README.
A series of .bat files are invoked by the Makefile to find the location
of the installed version of Visual Studio and the associated compiler
tools (essentially replicating the environment setup performed by a
"Developer Command Prompt"). This should find the most recent VS2015 or
VS2017 installation. Output from these scripts are used by the Makefile
to define compiler and linker pathnames and -I and -L arguments.
The build produces .pdb files for both debug and release builds.
Note: This commit was squashed from an organic series of commits
developed between 2016 and 2018 in Git for Windows' `master` branch.
This combined commit eliminates the obsolete commits related to fetching
NuGet packages for third party libraries. It is difficult to use NuGet
packages for C/C++ sources because they may be built by earlier versions
of the MSVC compiler and have CRT version and linking issues.
Additionally, the C/C++ NuGet packages that we were using tended to not
be updated concurrently with the sources. And in the case of cURL and
OpenSSL, this could expose us to security issues.

Instead of running N pair-wise diff-trees when inspecting a
N-parent merge, find the set of paths that were touched by walking
N+1 trees in parallel. These set of paths can then be turned into
N pair-wise diff-tree results to be processed through rename
detections and such. And N=2 case nicely degenerates to the usual
2-way diff-tree, which is very nice.

Both MSVC and MINGW have alloca(3) definitions in malloc.h, so by moving
win32-compat alloca.h from compat/vcbuild/include/ to compat/win32/ ,
which is included by both MSVC and MINGW CFLAGS, we can make alloca()
work on both those Windows environments.
In MINGW, malloc.h has explicit check for GNUC and if it is so, defines
alloca to __builtin_alloca, so it looks like we don't need to add any
code to here-shipped alloca.h to get optimum performance.

In order to fix the compilation errors, we use the same solution adopted

Also, we delete the compat/vcbuild/include/sys/poll.h header file, since
it is now redundant and it's presence may cause some confusion.

Commit c03c831 (do not depend on signed integer overflow,
05-10-2010) provokes an msvc build failure. The cause of the

would normally be defined in the C99 <stdint.h> header file.

The mingw-runtime implemenation of opendir, readdir and closedir
sets errno to 0 on success, something that POSIX explicitly
forbids. 3ba7a06 ("A loose object is not corrupt if it cannot be
read due to EMFILE") introduce a dependency on this behaviour,
leading to a broken "git clone" on Windows.
compat/mingw.c contains an implementation of readdir, and
compat/msvc.c contains implementations of opendir and closedir.
Move these to compat/win32/dirent.[ch], and change to our own DIR
structure at the same time.
This provides a generic Win32-implementation of opendir, readdir
and closedir which works on both MinGW and MSVC and does not reset
errno, and as a result git clone is working again on Windows.

Having recently added support for building git-imap-send on
Windows, we now link against OpenSSL libraries, and the linker
issues the following warning:
warning LNK4044: unrecognized option '/lssl'; ignored
In order to suppress the warning, we change the msvc linker
script to translate an '-lssl' parameter to the ssleay32.lib
library.
Note that the linker script was already including ssleay32.lib
(along with libeay32.lib) as part of the translation of the
'-lcrypto' library parameter. However, libeay32.dll does not
depend on ssleay32.dll and can be used stand-alone, so we remove
ssleay32.lib from the '-lcrypto' translation.
The dependence of ssleay32.dll on libeay32.dll is represented in
the Makefile by the NEEDS_CRYPTO_WITH_SSL build variable.
Also, add the corresponding change to the buildsystem generator.

During an MSVC build on cygwin, the make program did not notice
when the compiler or linker exited with an error. This was caused
by the scripts exiting with the value returned by system() directly.
On POSIX-like systems, such as cygwin, the return value of system()
has the exit code of the executed command encoded in the first byte
(ie the value is shifted up by 8 bits). This allows the bottom
7 bits to contain the signal number of a terminated process, while
the eighth bit indicates whether a core-dump was produced. (A value
of -1 indicates that the command failed to execute.)
The make program, however, expects the exit code to be encoded in the
bottom byte. Futhermore, it apparently masks off and ignores anything
in the upper bytes.
However, these scripts are (naturally) intended to be used on the
windows platform, where we can not assume POSIX-like semantics from
a perl implementation (eg ActiveState). So, in general, we can not
assume that shifting the return value right by eight will get us
the exit code.
In order to improve portability, we assume that a zero return from
system() indicates success, whereas anything else indicates failure.
Since we don't need to know the exact exit code from the compiler
or linker, we simply exit with 0 (success) or 1 (failure).

These scripts generate projects for the MSVC IDE (.vcproj files) or
QMake (.pro files), based on the output of a 'make -n MSVC=1 V=1' run.
This enables us to simply do the necesarry changes in the Makefile, and you
can update the other buildsystems by regenerating the files. Keeping the
other buildsystems up-to-date with main development.
The generator system is designed to easily drop in pm's for other
buildsystems as well, if someone has an itch. However, the focus has been
Windows development, so the 'engine' might need patches to support any
platform.
