It is too early to start warning loudly about the future default change
in favor of 'simple', since many users use different versions of Git, and
would be harmed if we advised them to explicitely set
'push.default=simple' when using old versions of Git.
Still, we want to document the upcomming change so that:
* Users who may be affected by the change get one more chance to know it
in advance.
* We actually commit to changing the default, and avoid repeating past
errors.

The default mode for push without arguments will change. Some warnings
are about to be enabled for such use, which causes some t5570 tests to
fail because they do not expect this output.
Fix this by passing an explicit refspec to git push. To that end, change
the calling conventions of test_remote_error in order to accomodate
extra command arguments.

When calling "git push" without argument, we want to allow Git to do
something simple to explain and safe. push.default=matching is unsafe
when used to push to shared repositories, and hard to explain to
beginners in some contexts. It is debatable whether 'upstream' or
'current' is the safest or the easiest to explain, so introduce a new
mode called 'simple' that is the intersection of them: push to the
upstream branch, but only if it has the same name remotely. If not, give
an error that suggests the right command to push explicitely to
'upstream' or 'current'.
A question is whether to allow pushing when no upstream is configured. An
argument in favor of allowing the push is that it makes the new mode work
in more cases. On the other hand, refusing to push when no upstream is
configured encourages the user to set the upstream, which will be
beneficial on the next pull. Lacking better argument, we chose to deny
the push, because it will be easier to change in the future if someone
shows us wrong.

The recent change to use SHELL_PATH instead of "sh" to spawn shell commands
is not suited for Windows:
- The default setting, "/bin/sh", does not work when git has to run the
shell because it is a POSIX style path, but not a proper Windows style
path.
- If it worked, it would hard-code a position in the files system where
the shell is expected, making git (more precisely, the POSIX toolset that
is needed alongside git) non-relocatable. But we cannot sacrifice
relocatability on Windows.
- Apart from that, even though the Makefile leaves SHELL_PATH set to
"/bin/sh" for the Windows builds, the build system passes a mangled path
to the compiler, and something like "D:/Src/msysgit/bin/sh" is used,
which is doubly bad because it points to where /bin/sh resolves to on
the system where git was built.
- Finally, the system's CreateProcess() function that is used under
mingw.c's hood does not work with forward slashes and cannot find the
shell.
Undo the earlier change on Windows.

The allocations made by unpack_nondirectories() using create_ce_entry()
are never freed.
In the non-merge case, we duplicate them using add_entry() and later
only look at the first allocated element (src[0]), perhaps even only
by mistake. Split out the actual addition from add_entry() into the
new helper do_add_entry() and call this non-duplicating function
instead of add_entry() to avoid the leak.
