git-tag supports interpreting trailers from an annotated tag message,
using --list --format="%(trailers)". However, the available methods to
add a trailer to a tag message (namely -F or --editor) are not as
ergonomic.
In a previous patch, we moved git-commit's implementation of its
--trailer option to the trailer.h API. Let's use that new function to
teach git-tag the same --trailer option, emulating as much of
git-commit's behavior as much as possible.

While git-config(1) has several modes, those modes are not exposed with
subcommands but instead by specifying action flags like `--unset` or
`--list`. This user interface is not really in line with how our more
modern commands work, where it is a lot more customary to say e.g. `git
remote list`. Furthermore, to add to the confusion, git-config(1) also
allows the user to request modes implicitly by just specifying the
correct number of arguments. Thus, `git config foo.bar` will retrieve
the value of "foo.bar" while `git config foo.bar baz` will set it to
"baz".
Overall, this makes for a confusing interface that could really use a
makeover. It hurts discoverability of what you can do with git-config(1)
and is comparatively easy to get wrong. Converting the command to have
subcommands instead would go a long way to help address these issues.
One concern in this context is backwards compatibility. Luckily, we can
introduce subcommands without breaking backwards compatibility at all.
This is because all the implicit modes of git-config(1) require that the
first argument is a properly formatted config key. And as config keys
_must_ have a dot in their name, any value without a dot would have been
discarded by git-config(1) previous to this change. Thus, given that
none of the subcommands do have a dot, they are unambiguous.
Introduce the first such new subcommand, which is "git config list". To
retain backwards compatibility we only conditionally use subcommands and
will fall back to the old syntax in case no subcommand was detected.
This should help to transition to the new-style syntax until we
eventually deprecate and remove the old-style syntax.
Note that the way we handle this we're duplicating some functionality
across old and new syntax. While this isn't pretty, it helps us to
ensure that there really is no change in behaviour for the old syntax.
Amend tests such that we run them both with old and new style syntax.
As tests are now run twice, state from the first run may be still be
around in the second run and thus cause tests to fail. Add cleanup logic
as required to fix such tests.

RGB color parsing currently supports 24-bit values in the form #RRGGBB.
As in Cascading Style Sheets (CSS [1]), also allow to specify an RGB color
using only three digits with #RGB.
In this shortened form, each of the digits is – again, as in CSS –
duplicated to convert the color to 24 bits, e.g. #f1b specifies the same
color as #ff11bb.
In color.h, remove the '0x' prefix in the example to match the actual
syntax.

In https://github.com/microsoft/git/issues/623, it was reported that
the regularly scheduled maintenance stops if one repo in the middle of
the list was found to be missing.
This is undesirable, and points out a gap in the design of `git
for-each-repo`: We need a mode where that command does not stop on an
error, but continues to try running the specified command with the other
repositories.
Imitating the `--keep-going` option of GNU make, this commit teaches
`for-each-repo` the same trick: to continue with the operation on all
the remaining repositories in case there was a problem with one
repository, still setting the exit code to indicate an error occurred.

In the previous step, the "--rfc" option of "format-patch" learned
to take an optional string value to prepend to the subject prefix,
so that --rfc=WIP can give "[WIP PATCH]".
There may be cases in which the extra string wants to come after the
subject prefix. Extend the mechanism to allow "--rfc=-(WIP)" [*] to
signal that the extra string is to be appended instead of getting
prepended, resulting in "[PATCH (WIP)]".
In the documentation, discourage (ab)using "--rfc=-RFC" to say
"[PATCH RFC]" just to be different, when "[RFC PATCH]" is the norm.
[Footnote]
* The syntax takes inspiration from Perl's open syntax that opens
pipes "open fh, '|-', 'cmd'", where the dash signals "the other
stuff comes here".

With the "--rfc" option, we can tweak the "[PATCH]" (or whatever
string specified with the "--subject-prefix" option, instead of
"PATCH") that we prefix the title of the commit with into "[RFC
PATCH]", but some projects may want "[rfc PATCH]". Adding a new
option, e.g., "--rfc-lowercase", to support such need every time
somebody wants to use different strings would lead to insanity of
accumulating unbounded number of such options.
Allow an optional value specified for the option, so that users can
use "--rfc=rfc" (think of "--rfc" without value as a short-hand for
"--rfc=RFC") if they wanted to.
This can of course be (ab)used to make the prefix "[WIP PATCH]" by
passing "--rfc=WIP". Passing an empty string, i.e., "--rfc=", is
the same as "--no-rfc" to override an option given earlier on the
same command line.
