underlying "git mailinfo" was taught to handle this properly.

* "gitweb" can spawn "highlight" to show blob contents with
(programming) language-specific syntax highlighting, but only
when the language is known. "highlight" can however be told
to make the guess itself by giving it "--force" option, which
has been enabled.

* "git init" tried to record core.worktree in the repository's
'config' file when GIT_WORK_TREE environment variable was set and
it was different from where GIT_DIR appears as ".git" at its top,
but the logic was faulty when .git is a "gitdir:" file that points
at the real place, causing trouble in working trees that are
managed by "git worktree". This has been corrected.

* Codepaths that read from an on-disk loose object were too loose in
validating what they are reading is a proper object file and
sometimes read past the data they read from the disk, which has
been corrected. H/t to Gustavo Grieco for reporting.

* The original command line syntax for "git merge", which was "git
merge <msg> HEAD <parent>...", has been deprecated for quite some
time, and "git gui" was the last in-tree user of the syntax. This
is finally fixed, so that we can move forward with the deprecation.
