The TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY environment variable can be used to instruct
the test suite to write test data and test results into a different
location than into "t/". The "ci/print-test-failures.sh" script does not
know to handle this environment variable though, which means that it
will search for test results in the wrong location if it was set.
Update the script to handle TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY so that we can start
to set it in our CI.

We already support Azure Pipelines and GitHub Workflows in the Git
project, but until now we do not have support for GitLab CI. While it is
arguably not in the interest of the Git project to maintain a ton of
different CI platforms, GitLab has recently ramped up its efforts and
tries to contribute to the Git project more regularly.
Part of a problem we hit at GitLab rather frequently is that our own,
custom CI setup we have is so different to the setup that the Git
project has. More esoteric jobs like "linux-TEST-vars" that also set a
couple of environment variables do not exist in GitLab's custom CI
setup, and maintaining them to keep up with what Git does feels like
wasted time. The result is that we regularly send patch series upstream
that fail to compile or pass tests in GitHub Workflows. We would thus
like to integrate the GitLab CI configuration into the Git project to
help us send better patch series upstream and thus reduce overhead for
the maintainer. Results of these pipeline runs will be made available
(at least) in GitLab's mirror of the Git project at [1].
This commit introduces the integration into our regular CI scripts so
that most of the setup continues to be shared across all of the CI
solutions. Note that as the builds on GitLab CI run as unprivileged
user, we need to pull in both sudo and shadow packages to our Alpine
based job to set this up.

Remove support for running the CI in travis. The last builds in it are
from 5 months ago[1] (as of 2021-11-19), and our documentation has
referred to GitHub CI instead since f003a91f5c (SubmittingPatches:
replace discussion of Travis with GitHub Actions, 2021-07-22).
We'll now run the "t9810 t9816" and tests on OSX. We didn't before, as
we'd carried the Travis exclusion of them forward from
522354d70f (Add Travis CI support, 2015-11-27). Let's hope whatever
issue there was with them was either Travis specific, or fixed since
then (I'm not sure).
The "apt-add-repository" invocation (which we were doing in GitHub CI)
isn't needed, it was another Travis-only case that was carried forward
into more general code. See 0f0c51181d (travis-ci: install packages
in 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', 2018-11-01).
Remove the "linux-gcc-4.8" job added in fb9d7431cf (travis-ci: build
with GCC 4.8 as well, 2019-07-18), it only ran in Travis CI.

Arguably, CI builds' most important task is to not only identify
regressions, but to make it as easy as possible to investigate what went
wrong.
In that light, we will want to provide users with a way to inspect the
tests' output as well as the corresponding directories.
This commit adds build steps that are only executed when tests failed,
uploading the relevant information as build artifacts. These artifacts
can then be downloaded by interested parties to diagnose the failures
more efficiently.

This patch introduces a conditional arm that defines some environment
variables and a function that displays the URL given the job id (to
identify previous runs for known-good trees).
Because Azure Pipeline's macOS agents already have git-lfs and gettext
installed, we can leave `BREW_INSTALL_PACKAGES` empty (unlike in
Travis' case).
Note: this patch does not introduce an Azure Pipelines definition yet;
That is left for the next patch.

The upcoming patches will allow building git.git via Azure Pipelines
(i.e. Azure DevOps' Continuous Integration), where variable names and
URLs look a bit different than in Travis CI.
Also, the configurations of the available agents are different. For
example, Travis' and Azure Pipelines' macOS agents are set up
differently, so that on Travis, we have to install the git-lfs and
gettext Homebrew packages, and on Azure Pipelines we do not need to.
Likewise, Azure Pipelines' Ubuntu agents already have asciidoctor
installed.
Finally, on Azure Pipelines the natural way is not to base64-encode tar
files of the trash directories of failed tests, but to publish build
artifacts instead. Therefore, that code to log those base64-encoded tar
files is guarded to be Travis-specific.

The name is hard-coded to reflect that we use Travis CI for continuous
testing.
In the next commits, we will extend this to be able use Azure DevOps,
too.
So let's adjust the name to make it more generic.

The trash directory of a failed test might contain invaluable
information about the cause of the failure, but we have no access to
the trash directories of Travis CI build jobs. The only feedback we
get from there is the build job's trace log, so...
Modify 'ci/print-test-failures.sh' to create a tar.gz archive of the
trash directory of each failed test, encode that archive with base64,
and print the resulting block of ASCII text, so it gets embedded in
the trace log. Furthermore, run tests with '--immediate' to
faithfully preserve the failed state.
Extracting the trash directories from the trace log turned out to be a
bit of a hassle, partly because of the size of these logs (usually
resulting in several hundreds or even thousands of lines of
base64-encoded text), and partly because these logs have CRLF, CRCRLF
and occasionally even CRCRCRLF line endings, which cause 'base64 -d'
from coreutils to complain about "invalid input". For convenience add
a small script 'ci/util/extract-trash-dirs.sh', which will extract and
unpack all base64-encoded trash directories embedded in the log fed to
its standard input, and include an example command to be copy-pasted
into a terminal to do it all at the end of the failure report.
A few of our tests create sizeable trash directories, so limit the
size of each included base64-encoded block, let's say, to 1MB. And
just in case something fundamental gets broken and a lot of tests fail
at once, don't include trash directories when the combined size of the
included base64-encoded blocks would exceed 1MB.

When a build job running the test suite fails, our
'ci/print-test-failures.sh' script scans all 't/test-results/*.exit'
files to find failed tests and prints their verbose output. However,
if a build job were to fail before it ever gets to run the test suite,
then there will be no files to match the above pattern and the shell
will take the pattern literally, resulting in errors like this in the
trace log:
cat: t/test-results/*.exit: No such file or directory
------------------------------------------------------------------------
t/test-results/*.out...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
cat: t/test-results/*.out: No such file or directory
Check upfront and proceed only if there are any such files present.

The change in commit 4f2636667 (travis-ci: use 'set -x' in 'ci/*'
scripts for extra tracing output, 2017-12-12) left a couple of rough
edges:
- 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' is executed in a Docker container and
therefore doesn't source 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which would enable
tracing executed commands. Enable 'set -x' in this script, too.
- 'ci/print-test-failures.sh' iterates over all the files containing
the exit codes of all the executed test scripts. Since there are
over 800 such files, the loop produces way too much noise with
tracing executed commands enabled, so disable 'set -x' for this
script.
- 'ci/run-windows-build.sh' busily waits in a loop for the result of
the Windows build, producing too much noise with tracing executed
commands enabled as well. Disable 'set -x' for the duration of
that loop.

Most of the Travis CI commands are in the '.travis.yml'. The yml format
does not support functions and therefore code duplication is necessary
to run commands across all builds.
To fix this, add a library for common CI functions. Move all Travis CI
code into dedicated scripts and make them call the library first.
