We have recently added a new test to t7900 that exercises whether
git-maintenance(1) fails as expected when the "schedule.lock" file
exists. The test depends on whether or not the host has the required
executables present to schedule maintenance tasks in the first place,
like systemd or launchctl -- if not, the test fails with an unrelated
error before even checking for the lock file. This fails for example in
our CI systems, where macOS images do not have launchctl available.
Fix this issue by creating a stub systemctl(1) binary and using the
systemd scheduler.

Makefile(s): avoid recipe prefix in conditional statements
doc: switch links to https
doc: update links to current pages
In GNU Make commit 07fcee35 ([SV 64815] Recipe lines cannot contain
conditional statements, 2023-05-22) and following, conditional
statements may no longer be preceded by a tab character (which Make
refers to as the recipe prefix).
There are a handful of spots in our various Makefile(s) which will break
in a future release of Make containing 07fcee35. For instance, trying to
compile the pre-image of this patch with the tip of make.git results in
the following:
$ make -v | head -1 && make
GNU Make 4.4.90
config.mak.uname:842: *** missing 'endif'. Stop.
The kernel addressed this issue in 82175d1f9430 (kbuild: Replace tabs
with spaces when followed by conditionals, 2024-01-28). Address the
issues in Git's tree by applying the same strategy.
When a conditional word (ifeq, ifneq, ifdef, etc.) is preceded by one or
more tab characters, replace each tab character with 8 space characters
with the following:
find . -type f -not -path './.git/*' -name Makefile -or -name '*.mak' |
xargs perl -i -pe '
s/(\t+)(ifn?eq|ifn?def|else|endif)/" " x (length($1) * 8) . $2/ge unless /\\$/
'
The "unless /\\$/" removes any false-positives (like "\telse \"
appearing within a shell script as part of a recipe).
After doing so, Git compiles on newer versions of Make:
$ make -v | head -1 && make
GNU Make 4.4.90
GIT_VERSION = 2.44.0.414.gfac1dc44ca9

Over the last two releases we have plugged a couple hundred of memory
leaks exposed by the Git test suite. With the preceding commits we have
finally fixed the last leak exposed by our test suite, which means that
we are now basically leak free wherever we have branch coverage.
From hereon, the Git test suite should ideally stay free of memory
leaks. Most importantly, any test suite that is being added should
automatically be subject to the leak checker, and if that test does not
pass it is a strong signal that the added code introduced new memory
leaks and should not be accepted without further changes.
Drop the infrastructure around TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK to reflect this
new requirement. Like this, all test suites will be subject to the leak
checker by default.
This is being intentionally strict, but we still have an escape hatch:
the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite. There is one known case in t5601 where
the leak sanitizer itself is buggy, so adding this prereq in such cases
is acceptable. Another acceptable situation is when a newly added test
uncovers preexisting memory leaks: when fixing that memory leak would be
sufficiently complicated it is fine to annotate and document the leak
accordingly. But in any case, the burden is now on the patch author to
explain why exactly they have to add the SANITIZE_LEAK prerequisite.
The TEST_PASSES_SANITIZE_LEAK annotations will be dropped in the next
patch.

When running t5601 with the leak checker enabled we can see a hang in
our CI systems. This hang seems to be system-specific, as I cannot
reproduce it on my own machine.
As it turns out, the issue is in those testcases that exercise cloning
of `~repo`-style paths. All of the testcases that hang eventually end up
interpreting "repo" as the username and will call getpwnam(3p) with that
username. That should of course be fine, and getpwnam(3p) should just
return an error. But instead, the leak sanitizer seems to be recursing
while handling a call to `free()` in the NSS modules:

Note that this stack is more than 260000 function calls deep. Run under
the debugger this will eventually segfault, but in our CI systems it
seems like this just hangs forever.
I assume that this is a bug either in the leak sanitizer or in glibc, as
I cannot reproduce it on my machine. In any case, let's work around the
bug for now by marking those tests with the "!SANITIZE_LEAK" prereq.

The `UNLEAK()` macro has been introduced with 0e5bba53af (add UNLEAK
annotation for reducing leak false positives, 2017-09-08) to help us
reduce the amount of reported memory leaks in cases we don't care about,
e.g. when exiting immediately afterwards. We have since removed all of
its users in favor of freeing the memory and thus don't need the macro
anymore.
Remove it.

There are two users of `UNLEAK()` left in our codebase:
- In "builtin/clone.c", annotating the `repo` variable. That leak has
already been fixed though as you can see in the context, where we do
know to free `repo_to_free`.
- In "builtin/diff.c", to unleak entries of the `blob[]` array. That
leak has also been fixed, because the entries we assign to that
array come from `rev.pending.objects`, and we do eventually release
`rev`.
This neatly demonstrates one of the issues with `UNLEAK()`: it is quite
easy for the annotation to become stale. A second issue is that its
whole intent is to paper over leaks. And while that has been a necessary
evil in the past, because Git was leaking left and right, it isn't
really much of an issue nowadays where our test suite has no known leaks
anymore.
Remove the last two users of this macro.

We're leaking the commit-graph in the "test-helper read-graph"

Fix the leak by calling `free_commit_graph()`. Besides getting rid of

properly release resources as Git would do it, as well.

The `check_git_cmd()` function is declared to return a string constant.
And while it sometimes does return a constant, it may also return an
allocated string in two cases:
- When handling aliases. This case is already marked with `UNLEAK()`
to work around the leak.
- When handling unknown commands in case "help.autocorrect" is
enabled. This one is not marked with `UNLEAK()`.
The function only has a single caller, so let's fix its return type to
be non-constant, consistently return an allocated string and free it at
its callsite to plug the leak.
