libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by `git_buf`. We require: 1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc). 2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they can take ownership of. By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and reasoning about correctness is also difficult. Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class. The name also is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr"). The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint. It is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that follow the documentation. (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.) Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a `git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it back again.

When compiling libgit2 with -DDEPRECATE_HARD, we add a preprocessor definition `GIT_DEPRECATE_HARD` which causes the "git2/deprecated.h" header to be empty. As a result, no function declarations are made available to callers, but the implementations are still available to link against. This has the problem that function declarations also aren't visible to the implementations, meaning that the symbol's visibility will not be set up correctly. As a result, the resulting library may not expose those deprecated symbols at all on some platforms and thus cause linking errors. Fix the issue by conditionally compiling deprecated functions, only. While it becomes impossible to link against such a library in case one uses deprecated functions, distributors of libgit2 aren't expected to pass -DDEPRECATE_HARD anyway. Instead, users of libgit2 should manually define GIT_DEPRECATE_HARD to hide deprecated functions. Using "real" hard deprecation still makes sense in the context of CI to test we don't use deprecated symbols ourselves and in case a dependant uses libgit2 in a vendored way and knows it won't ever use any of the deprecated symbols anyway.

The flag GIT_FILEBUF_FORCE currently does two things: 1. It will cause the filebuf to create non-existing leading directories for the file that is about to be written. 2. It will forcibly remove any pre-existing locks. While most call sites actually do want (1), they do not want to remove pre-existing locks, as that renders the locking mechanisms effectively useless. Introduce a new flag `GIT_FILEBUF_CREATE_LEADING_DIRS` to separate both behaviours cleanly from each other and convert callers to use it instead of `GIT_FILEBUF_FORCE` to have them honor locked files correctly. As this conversion removes all current users of `GIT_FILEBUF_FORCE`, this commit removes the flag altogether.

In libgit2 nomenclature, when we need to verb a direct object, we name a function `git_directobject_verb`. Thus, if we need to init an options structure named `git_foo_options`, then the name of the function that does that should be `git_foo_options_init`. The previous names of `git_foo_init_options` is close - it _sounds_ as if it's initializing the options of a `foo`, but in fact `git_foo_options` is its own noun that should be respected. Deprecate the old names; they'll now call directly to the new ones.

Next to including several files, our "common.h" header also declares various macros which are then used throughout the project. As such, we have to make sure to always include this file first in all implementation files. Otherwise, we might encounter problems or even silent behavioural differences due to macros or defines not being defined as they should be. So in fact, our header and implementation files should make sure to always include "common.h" first. This commit does so by establishing a common include pattern. Header files inside of "src" will now always include "common.h" as its first other file, separated by a newline from all the other includes to make it stand out as special. There are two cases for the implementation files. If they do have a matching header file, they will always include this one first, leading to "common.h" being transitively included as first file. If they do not have a matching header file, they instead include "common.h" as first file themselves. This fixes the outlined problems and will become our standard practice for header and source files inside of the "src/" from now on.

The `path_repository` variable is actually confusing to think about, as it is not always clear what the repository actually is. It may either be the path to the folder containing worktree and .git directory, the path to .git itself, a worktree or something entirely different. Actually, the intent of the variable is to hold the path to the gitdir, which is either the .git directory or the bare repository. Rename the variable to `gitdir` to avoid confusion. While at it, also rename `path_gitlink` to `gitlink` to improve consistency.

Error messages should be sentence fragments, and therefore: 1. Should not begin with a capital letter, 2. Should not conclude with punctuation, and 3. Should not end a sentence and begin a new one

git_checkout_index can now check out other git_index's (that are not necessarily the repository index). This allows checkout_index to use the repository's index for stat cache information instead of the index data being checked out. git_merge and friends now check out their indexes directly instead of trying to blend it into the running index.

There were a couple of "init_opts()" functions a few more cases of structure initialization that I somehow missed.
