While the reftable format is a recent introduction in Git, JGit already
knows to read and write reftables since 2017. Given the complexity of
the format there is a very real risk of incompatibilities between those
two implementations, which is something that we really want to avoid.
Add some basic tests that verify that reftables written by Git and JGit
can be read by the respective other implementation. For now this test
suite is rather small, only covering basic functionality. But it serves
as a good starting point and can be extended over time.

Older versions of the Dash shell fail to parse `local var=val`
assignments in some cases when `val` is unquoted. Such failures can be
observed e.g. with Ubuntu 20.04 and older, which has a Dash version that
still has this bug.
Such an assignment has been introduced in t0610. The issue wasn't
detected for a while because this test used to only run when the
GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT environment variable was set to "reftable".
We have dropped that requirement now though, meaning that it runs
unconditionally, including on jobs which use such older versions of
Ubuntu.
We have worked around such issues in the past, e.g. in ebee5580ca
(parallel-checkout: avoid dash local bug in tests, 2021-06-06), by
quoting the `val` side. Apply the same fix to t0610.

The tests in t06xx exercise specific ref formats. Next to probing some
basic functionality, these tests also exercise other low-level details
specific to the format. Those tests are only executed though in case
`GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT` is set to the ref format of the respective
backend-under-test.
Ideally, we would run the full test matrix for ref formats such that our
complete test suite is executed with every supported format on every
supported platform. This is quite an expensive undertaking though, and
thus we only execute e.g. the "reftable" tests on macOS and Linux. As a
result, we basically have no test coverage for the "reftable" format at
all on other platforms like Windows.
Adapt these tests so that they override `GIT_TEST_DEFAULT_REF_FORMAT`,
which means that they'll always execute. This increases test coverage on
platforms that don't run the full test matrix, which at least gives us
some basic test coverage on those platforms for the "reftable" format.
This of course comes at the cost of running those tests multiple times
on platforms where we do run the full test matrix. But arguably, this is
a good thing because it will also cause us to e.g. run those tests with
the address sanitizer and other non-standard parameters.

Part of "install-dependencies.sh" is to install some binaries required
for tests into a custom directory that gets added to the PATH. This
directory is located at "$HOME/path" and thus depends on the current
user that the script executes as.
This creates problems for GitLab CI, which installs dependencies as the
root user, but runs tests as a separate, unprivileged user. As their
respective home directories are different, we will end up using two
different custom path directories. Consequently, the unprivileged user
will not be able to find the binaries that were set up as root user.
Fix this issue by allowing CI to override the custom path, which allows
GitLab to set up a constant value that isn't derived from "$HOME".

Our "install-dependencies.sh" script is executed by non-dockerized jobs
to install dependencies. These jobs don't run with "root" permissions,
but with a separate user. Consequently, we need to use sudo(8) there to
elevate permissions when installing packages.
We're about to merge "install-docker-dependencies.sh" into that script
though, and our Docker containers do run as "root". Using sudo(8) is
thus unnecessary there, even though it would be harmless. On some images
like Alpine Linux though there is no sudo(8) available by default, which
would consequently break the build.

CST6CDT and the like are POSIX timezone, with no rule for transition.
And POSIX doesn't enforce how to interpret the rule if it's omitted.
Some libc (e.g. glibc) resorted back to IANA (formerly Olson) db rules
for those timezones. Some libc (e.g. FreeBSD) uses a fixed rule.
Other libc (e.g. musl) interpret that as no transition at all [1].
In addition, distributions (notoriously Debian-derived, which uses IANA
db for CST6CDT and the like) started to split "legacy" timezones
like CST6CDT, EST5EDT into `tzdata-legacy', which will not be installed
by default [2].
In those cases, t9604 will run into failure.

The tests for git-pack-refs(1) with the `core.sharedRepository` config
execute git-pack-refs(1) outside of the shell that has the expected
umask set. This is wrong because we want to test the behaviour of that
command with different umasks. The issue went unnoticed because most
distributions have a default umask of 0022, and we only ever test with
`--shared=true`, which re-adds the group write bit.
Fix the issue by moving git-pack-refs(1) into the umask'd shell and add
a bunch of test cases that exercise behaviour more thoroughly.
Note that we drop the check for whether `core.sharedRepository` was set
to the correct value to make the test setup a bit easier. We should be
able to rely on git-init(1) doing its thing correctly. Furthermore, to
help readability, we convert tests that pass `--shared=true` to instead
pass the equivalent `--shared=group`.

While most reftable blocks are written to disk as-is, blocks for log
records are compressed with zlib. To compress them we use `compress2()`,
which is a simple wrapper around the more complex `zstream` interface
that would require multiple function invocations.
One downside of this interface is that `compress2()` will reallocate
internal state of the `zstream` interface on every single invocation.
Consequently, as we call `compress2()` for every single log block which
we are about to write, this can lead to quite some memory allocation
churn.
Refactor the code so that the block writer reuses a `zstream`. This
significantly reduces the number of bytes allocated when writing many
refs in a single transaction, as demonstrated by the following benchmark
that writes 100k refs in a single transaction.

The reftable writer tracks the last key that it has written so that it
can properly compute the compressed prefix for the next record it is
about to write. This last key must be reset whenever we move on to write
the next block, which is done in `writer_reinit_block_writer()`. We do
this by calling `strbuf_release()` though, which needlessly deallocates
the underlying buffer.
Convert the code to use `strbuf_reset()` instead, which saves one
allocation per block we're about to write. This requires us to also
amend `reftable_writer_free()` to release the buffer's memory now as we
previously seemingly relied on `writer_reinit_block_writer()` to release
the memory for us. Releasing memory here is the right thing to do
anyway.
While at it, convert a callsite where we truncate the buffer by setting
its length to zero to instead use `strbuf_reset()`, too.

There are two code paths which release memory of the reftable writer:
- `reftable_writer_close()` releases internal state after it has
written data.
- `reftable_writer_free()` releases the block that was written to and
the writer itself.
Both code paths free different parts of the writer, and consequently the
caller must make sure to call both. And while callers mostly do this
already, this falls apart when a write failure causes the caller to skip
calling `reftable_write_close()`.
Introduce a new function `reftable_writer_release()` that releases all
internal state and call it from both paths. Like this it is fine for the
caller to not call `reftable_writer_close()`.
