The value of "uname -s" is by default sent over the wire as a part
of the "version" capability.
* ua/os-version-capability:
agent: advertise OS name via agent capability
t5701: add setup test to remove side-effect dependency
version: extend get_uname_info() to hide system details
version: refactor get_uname_info()
version: refactor redact_non_printables()
version: replace manual ASCII checks with isprint() for clarity

As some issues that can happen with a Git client can be operating system
specific, it can be useful for a server to know which OS a client is
using. In the same way it can be useful for a client to know which OS
a server is using.
Our current agent capability is in the form of "package/version" (e.g.,
"git/1.8.3.1"). Let's extend it to include the operating system name (os)
i.e in the form "package/version-os" (e.g., "git/1.8.3.1-Linux").
Including OS details in the agent capability simplifies implementation,
maintains backward compatibility, avoids introducing a new capability,
encourages adoption across Git-compatible software, and enhances
debugging by providing complete environment information without affecting
functionality. The operating system name is retrieved using the 'sysname'
field of the `uname(2)` system call or its equivalent.
However, there are differences between `uname(1)` (command-line utility)
and `uname(2)` (system call) outputs on Windows. These discrepancies
complicate testing on Windows platforms. For example:
- `uname(1)` output: MINGW64_NT-10.0-20348.3.4.10-87d57229.x86_64\
.2024-02-14.20:17.UTC.x86_64
- `uname(2)` output: Windows.10.0.20348
On Windows, uname(2) is not actually system-supplied but is instead
already faked up by Git itself. We could have overcome the test issue
on Windows by implementing a new `uname` subcommand in `test-tool`
using uname(2), but except uname(2), which would be tested against
itself, there would be nothing platform specific, so it's just simpler
to disable the tests on Windows.

Currently, get_uname_info() function provides the full OS information.
In a following commit, we will need it to provide only the OS name.
Let's extend it to accept a "full" flag that makes it switch between
providing full OS information and providing only the OS name.
We may need to refactor this function in the future if an
`osVersion.format` is added.

Some code from "builtin/bugreport.c" uses uname(2) to get system
information.
Let's refactor this code into a new get_uname_info() function, so
that we can reuse it in a following commit.

The git_user_agent_sanitized() function performs some sanitizing to
avoid special characters being sent over the line and possibly messing
up with the protocol or with the parsing on the other side.
Let's extract this sanitizing into a new redact_non_printables() function,
as we will want to reuse it in a following patch.
For now the new redact_non_printables() function is still static as
it's only needed locally.
While at it, let's use strbuf_detach() to explicitly detach the string
contained by the 'buf' strbuf.

Since the isprint() function checks for printable characters, let's
replace the existing hardcoded ASCII checks with it. However, since
the original checks also handled spaces, we need to account for spaces
explicitly in the new check.

To build the libgit-version library, Meson first generates
`version-def.h` in the build directory. Then it compiles `version.c`
into a library. During compilation, Meson tells to include both the
build directory and the project root directory.
However, when the user previously has compiled Git using Make, they will
have a `version-def.h` file in project root directory as well. Because
`version-def.h` is included in `version.c` using the #include directive
with double quotes, some preprocessors will look for the header file in
the same directory as the source file. This will cause compilation of
`version.c` ran by Meson to include `version-def.h` previously made by
Make, which might be out of date.
To explicitly tell the preprocessor which `version-def.h` to use, pass
the absolute path of this file as macro GIT_VERSION_H to the
preprocessor using option `-D` and have `version.c` `#include
GIT_VERSION_H`. To remain working with other build systems than Meson,
include "version-def.h" if that macro is not defined.

We set up a couple of preprocessor macros when compiling Git that
propagate the version that Git was built from to `git version` et al.
The way this is set up makes it harder than necessary to reuse the
infrastructure across the different build systems.
Refactor this such that we generate a "version-def.h" header via
`GIT-VERSION-GEN` instead.

We have a bunch of loops which iterate up to an unsigned boundary using
a signed index, which generates warnigs because we compare a signed and
unsigned value in the loop condition. Address these sites for trivial
cases and enable `-Wsign-compare` warnings for these code units.
This patch only adapts those code units where we can drop the
`DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS` macro in the same step.

In particular when local tags are used (or tags that are pushed to some
fork) to build Git, it is very hard to figure out from which particular
revision a particular Git executable was built. It gets worse when those
tags are deleted, or even updated.
Let's just report an exact, unabbreviated commit name in our build
options.
We need to be careful, though, to report when the current commit cannot
be determined, e.g. when building from a tarball without any associated
Git repository. This could be the case also when extracting Git's source
code into an unrelated Git worktree.

Instead of having the client advertise a particular version
number in the git protocol, we have managed extensions and
backwards compatibility by having clients and servers
advertise capabilities that they support. This is far more
robust than having each side consult a table of
known versions, and provides sufficient information for the
protocol interaction to complete.
However, it does not allow servers to keep statistics on
which client versions are being used. This information is
not necessary to complete the network request (the
capabilities provide enough information for that), but it
may be helpful to conduct a general survey of client
versions in use.
We already send the client version in the user-agent header
for http requests; adding it here allows us to gather
similar statistics for non-http requests.

This is basically a fancy way of saying "git/$GIT_VERSION",
except that it is overridable at build-time and through the
environment. Which means that people who don't want to
advertise their git version (for privacy or security
reasons) can tweak it.

The global git_version_string currently lives in git.c, but
doesn't have anything to do with the git wrapper. Let's move
it into its own file, where it will be more appropriate to
build more version-related functions.
