When parsing --pack_header=, we manually skip 14 bytes to the data.
Let's use skip_prefix() to do this automatically.
Note that we overwrite our pointer to the front of the string, so we
have to add more context to the error message. We could avoid this by
declaring an extra pointer to hold the value, but I think the modified
message is actually preferable; it should give translators a bit more
context.

Both of these commands read the incoming pack into a static unsigned
char buffer in BSS, and then parse it by casting the start of the buffer
to a struct pack_header. This can result in SIGBUS on some platforms if
the compiler doesn't place the buffer in a position that is properly
aligned for 4-byte integers.
This reportedly happens with unpack-objects (but not index-pack) on
sparc64 when compiled with clang (but not gcc). But we are definitely in
the wrong in both spots; since the buffer's type is unsigned char, we
can't depend on larger alignment. When it works it is only because we
are lucky.
We'll fix this by switching to get_be32() to read the headers (just like
the last few commits similarly switched us to put_be32() for writing
into the same buffer).
It would be nice to factor this out into a common helper function, but
the interface ends up quite awkward. Either the caller needs to hardcode
how many bytes we'll need, or it needs to pass us its fill()/use()
functions as pointers. So I've just fixed both spots in the same way;
this is not code that is likely to be repeated a third time (most of the
pack reading code uses an mmap'd buffer, which should be properly
aligned).
I did make one tweak to the shared code: our pack_version_ok() macro
expects us to pass the big-endian value we'd get by casting. We can
introduce a "native" variant which uses the host integer ordering.

In order to recreate a pack header in our in-memory buffer, we cast the
buffer to a "struct pack_header" and assign the individual fields. This
is reported to cause SIGBUS on sparc64 due to alignment issues.
We can work around this by using put_be32() which will write individual
bytes into the buffer.

Both index-pack and unpack-objects accept a --pack_header argument. This
is an undocumented internal argument used by receive-pack and fetch to
pass along information about the header of the pack, which they've
already read from the incoming stream.
In preparation for a bugfix, let's factor the duplicated code into a
common helper.
The callers are still responsible for identifying the option. While this
could likewise be factored out, it is more flexible this way (e.g., if
they ever started using parse-options and wanted to handle both the
stuck and unstuck forms).
Likewise, the callers are responsible for reporting errors, though they
both just call die(). I've tweaked unpack-objects to match index-pack in
marking the error for translation.

In put_be32(), we right-shift a uint32_t value various amounts and then
assign the low 8-bits to individual "unsigned char" bytes, throwing away
the high bits. For shifts smaller than 24 bits, those thrown away bits
will be arbitrary bits from the original uint32_t.
This works exactly as we want, but if you feed a constant, then sparse
complains. For example if we write this (which we plan to do in a future
patch):
put_be32(hdr, PACK_SIGNATURE);
then "make sparse" produces:
compat/bswap.h:175:22: error: cast truncates bits from constant value (5041 becomes 41)
compat/bswap.h:176:22: error: cast truncates bits from constant value (504143 becomes 43)
compat/bswap.h:177:22: error: cast truncates bits from constant value (5041434b becomes 4b)
And the same issue exists in the other put_be*() functions, when used
with a constant.
We can silence this warning by explicitly masking off the truncated
bits. The compiler is smart enough to know the result is the same, and
the asm generated by gcc (with both -O0 and -O2) is identical.
Curiously this line already exists:
put_be32(&hdr_version, INDEX_EXTENSION_VERSION2);
in the fsmonitor.c file, but it does not get flagged because the CPP
macro expands to a small integer (2).

"generate-clar-decls.sh" script is designed to extract function
signatures that match a specific pattern derived from the unit test
file's name. The script does not know to massage file names with dashes,
which will make it search for functions that look like, for example,
`test_mem-pool_*`. Having dashes in function names is not allowed
though, so these patterns won't ever match a legal function name.
Adapt script to translate dashes (`-`) in test suite filenames to
underscores (`_`) to correctly extract the function signatures and run
the corresponding tests. This will be used by subsequent commits which
follows the same construct.

Using the show_usage_if_asked() helper we introduced earlier, fix
callers of usage() that want to show the help text when explicitly

output stream for them.
The callers in this step are oddballs in that their invocations of
usage() are *not* guarded by
if (argc == 2 && !strcmp(argv[1], "-h")
usage(...);
There are (unnecessarily) being clever ones that do things like
if (argc != 2 || !strcmp(argv[1], "-h")
usage(...);
to say "I know I take only one argument, so argc != 2 is always an
error regardless of what is in argv[]. Ah, by the way, even if argc
is 2, "-h" is a request for usage text, so we do the same".
Some like "git var -h" just do not treat "-h" any specially, and let
it take the same error code paths as a parameter error.
Now we cannot do the same, so these callers are rewrittin to do the
show_usage_and_exit_if_asked() first and then handle the usage error
the way they used to.

For most commands, "git foo -h" will send the help output to stdout, as
this is what parse-options.c does. But some commands send it to stderr
instead. This is usually because they call usage_with_options(), and
should be switched to show_usage_help_and_exit_if_asked().
Currently t0012 is permissive and allows either behavior. We'd like it
to eventually enforce that help goes to stdout, and teaching it to do so
identifies the commands that need to be changed. But during the
transition period, we don't want to enforce that for most test runs.
So let's introduce a flag that will let most test runs use the
permissive behavior, and people interested in converting commands can
run:
GIT_TEST_HELP_MUST_BE_STDOUT=1 ./t0012-help.sh
to see the failures. Eventually (when all builtins have been converted)
we'll remove this flag entirely and always check the strict behavior.
