brian m. carlson ffff4ac065 credential: add method for querying capabilities
Right now, there's no specific way to determine whether a credential
helper or git credential itself supports a given set of capabilities.
It would be helpful to have such a way, so let's let credential helpers
and git credential take an argument, "capability", which has it list the
capabilities and a version number on standard output.

Specifically choose a format that is slightly different from regular
credential output and assume that no capabilities are supported if a
non-zero exit status occurs or the data deviates from the format.  It is
common for users to write small shell scripts as the argument to
credential.helper, which will almost never be designed to emit
capabilities.  We want callers to gracefully handle this case by
assuming that they are not capable of extended support because that is
almost certainly the case, and specifying the error behavior up front
does this and preserves backwards compatibility in a graceful way.
