argv-array: add a new "pushl" method

It can be convenient to push many strings in a single line
(e.g., if you are initializing an array with defaults). This
patch provides a convenience wrapper to allow this.

argv-array: refactor empty_argv initialization

An empty argv-array is initialized to point to a static
empty NULL-terminated array.  The original implementation
separates the actual storage of the NULL-terminator from the
pointer to the list.  This makes the exposed type a "const
char **", which nicely matches the type stored by the
argv-array.

However, this indirection means that one cannot use
empty_argv to initialize a static variable, since it is
not a constant.

Instead, we can expose empty_argv directly, as an array of
pointers. The only place we use it is in the ARGV_ARRAY_INIT
initializer, and it decays to a pointer appropriately there.

refactor argv_array into generic code

The submodule code recently grew generic code to build a
dynamic argv array. Many other parts of the code can reuse
this, too, so let's make it generically available.

There are two enhancements not found in the original code:

  1. We now handle the NULL-termination invariant properly,
     even when no strings have been pushed (before, you
     could have an empty, NULL argv). This was not a problem
     for the submodule code, which always pushed at least
     one argument, but was not sufficiently safe for
     generic code.

  2. There is a formatted variant of the "push" function.
     This is a convenience function which was not needed by
     the submodule code, but will make it easier to port
     other users to the new code.
