When trying to create a Unix socket in a path that exceeds the maximum
socket name length we try to first change the directory into the parent
folder before creating the socket to reduce the length of the name. When
this fails we error out of `unix_sockaddr_init()` with an error code,
which indicates to the caller that the context has not been initialized.
Consequently, they don't release that context.
This leads to a memory leak: when we have already populated the context
with the original directory that we need to chdir(3p) back into, but
then the chdir(3p) into the socket's parent directory fails, then we
won't release the original directory's path. The leak is exposed by
t0301, but only when running tests in a directory hierarchy whose path
is long enough to make the socket name length exceed the maximum socket
name length:

Calls to `chdir()` are dangerous in a multi-threaded context. If
`unix_stream_listen()` or `unix_stream_connect()` is given a socket
pathname that is too long to fit in a `sockaddr_un` structure, it will
`chdir()` to the parent directory of the requested socket pathname,
create the socket using a relative pathname, and then `chdir()` back.
This is not thread-safe.
Teach `unix_sockaddr_init()` to not allow calls to `chdir()` when this
flag is set.

Reduce the use of fixed sized buffer passed to getcwd() calls
by introducing xgetcwd() helper.
* rs/strbuf-getcwd:
use strbuf_add_absolute_path() to add absolute paths
abspath: convert absolute_path() to strbuf
use xgetcwd() to set $GIT_DIR
use xgetcwd() to get the current directory or die
wrapper: add xgetcwd()
abspath: convert real_path_internal() to strbuf
abspath: use strbuf_getcwd() to remember original working directory
setup: convert setup_git_directory_gently_1 et al. to strbuf
unix-sockets: use strbuf_getcwd()
strbuf: add strbuf_getcwd()
Instead of using a PATH_MAX-sized buffer, which can be too small on some
file systems, use strbuf_getcwd(), which handles any path getcwd()
returns. Also preserve the errno set by strbuf_getcwd() instead of
setting it to ENAMETOOLONG; that way a more appropriate error message
can be shown based on the actual reason for failing.

unix_stream_listen() is given a path. It calls unix_sockaddr_init(),
which in turn can call chdir(). After that a relative path doesn't
mean the same as before. Any use of the original path should thus
happen before that call. For that reason, unlink the given path
(to get rid of a possibly existing stale socket) right at the
beginning of the function.

unix_stream_connect and unix_stream_listen return -1 on error, with
errno set by the failing underlying call to allow the caller to write
a useful diagnosis.
Unfortunately the error path involves a few system calls itself, such
as close(), that can themselves touch errno.
This is not as worrisome as it might sound. If close() fails, this
just means substituting one meaningful error message for another,
which is perfectly fine. However, when the call _succeeds_, it is
allowed to (and sometimes might) clobber errno along the way with some
undefined value, so it is good higiene to save errno and restore it
immediately before returning to the caller. Do so.

On many systems, the sockaddr_un.sun_path field is quite
small. Even on Linux, it is only 108 characters. A user of
the credential-cache daemon can easily surpass this,
especially if their home directory is in a deep directory
tree (since the default location expands ~/.git-credentials).
We can hack around this in the unix-socket.[ch] code by
doing a chdir() to the enclosing directory, feeding the
relative basename to the socket functions, and then
restoring the working directory.
This introduces several new possible error cases for
creating a socket, including an irrecoverable one in the
case that we can't restore the working directory. In the
case of the credential-cache code, we could perhaps get away
with simply chdir()-ing to the socket directory and never
coming back. However, I'd rather do it at the lower level
for a few reasons:
1. It keeps the hackery behind an opaque interface instead
of polluting the main program logic.
2. A hack in credential-cache won't help any unix-socket
users who come along later.
3. The chdir trickery isn't that likely to fail (basically
it's only a problem if your cwd is missing or goes away
while you're running). And because we only enable the
hack when we get a too-long name, it can only fail in
cases that would have failed under the previous code
anyway.

If you access repositories over smart-http using http
authentication, then it can be annoying to have git ask you
for your password repeatedly. We cache credentials in
memory, of course, but git is composed of many small
programs. Having to input your password for each one can be
frustrating.
This patch introduces a credential helper that will cache
passwords in memory for a short period of time.
