These were not caught by the previous commit, as they did not match the
regular expression.

While at it, remove the localization from one instance: we never want
BUG() messages to be translated, as they target Git developers, not the
end user (hence it would be quite unhelpful to not only burden the
translators, but then even end up with a bug report in a language that
no core Git contributor understands).

<title>Replace all die("BUG: ...") calls by BUG() ones</title>

<content type='text'>
In d8193743e08 (usage.c: add BUG() function, 2017-05-12), a new macro
was introduced to use for reporting bugs instead of die(). It was then
subsequently used to convert one single caller in 588a538ae55
(setup_git_env: convert die("BUG") to BUG(), 2017-05-12).

The cover letter of the patch series containing this patch
(cf 20170513032414.mfrwabt4hovujde2@sigill.intra.peff.net) is not
terribly clear why only one call site was converted, or what the plan
is for other, similar calls to die() to report bugs.

Let's just convert all remaining ones in one fell swoop.

This trick was performed by this invocation:

	sed -i 's/die("BUG: /BUG("/g' $(git grep -l 'die("BUG' \*.c)

The final step to make an empty string as a pathspec element
illegal.  We started this by first deprecating and warning a
pathspec that has such an element in 2.11 (Nov 2016).

Hopefully we can merge this down to the 'master' by the end of the
year?  A deprecation warning period that is about 1 year does not
sound too bad.

The command line arguments passed to main() are valid for the life of
a program, but the same is not true for all other argv-style arrays
(e.g.  when a caller creates an argv_array).  Clarify that
parse_pathspec does not rely on the argv passed to it to remain valid.

This makes it easier to tell that callers like "git rev-list --stdin"
are safe and ensures that that is more likely to remain true as the
implementation of parse_pathspec evolves.

A common pattern to free a piece of memory and assign NULL to the
pointer that used to point at it has been replaced with a new
FREE_AND_NULL() macro.

<title>pathspec: die on empty strings as pathspec</title>

<content type='text'>
An empty string as a pathspec element matches all paths.  A buggy
script, however, could accidentally assign an empty string to a
variable that then gets passed to a Git command invocation, e.g.:

  path=... compute a path to be removed in $path ...
        git rm -r "$path"

which would unintentionally remove all paths in the current
directory.

The fix for this issue comprises of two steps. Step 1, which warns
that empty strings as pathspecs will become invalid, has already
been implemented in commit d426430 ("pathspec: warn on empty strings
as pathspec", 2016-06-22).

This patch is step 2. It removes the warning and throws an error
instead.

Apply the result of the just-added coccinelle rule. This manually
excludes a few occurrences, mostly things that resulted in many
FREE_AND_NULL() on one line, that'll be manually fixed in a subsequent
change.

Stop including config.h by default in cache.h.  Instead only include
config.h in those files which require use of the config system.
