Release v0.26.8

The commit message encoding is currently being parsed by the
`git__prefixcmp` function. As this function does not accept a buffer
length, it will happily skip over a buffer's end if it is not `NUL`
terminated.

Fix the issue by using `git__prefixncmp` instead. Add a test that
verifies that we are unable to parse the encoding field if it's cut off
by the supplied buffer length.

(cherry picked from commit 7655b2d8)

When parsing tags, we skip all unknown fields that appear before the tag
message. This skipping is done by using a plain `strstr(buffer, "\n\n")`
to search for the two newlines that separate tag fields from tag
message. As it is not possible to supply a buffer length to `strstr`,
this call may skip over the buffer's end and thus result in an out of
bounds read. As `strstr` may return a pointer that is out of bounds, the
following computation of `buffer_end - buffer` will overflow and result
in an allocation of an invalid length.

Fix the issue by using `git__memmem` instead. Add a test that verifies
parsing the tag fails not due to the allocation failure but due to the
tag having no message.

(cherry picked from commit ee11d47e)

Unfortunately, neither the `memmem` nor the `strnstr` functions are part
of any C standard but are merely extensions of C that are implemented by
e.g. glibc. Thus, there is no standardized way to search for a string in
a block of memory with a limited size, and using `strstr` is to be
considered unsafe in case where the buffer has not been sanitized. In
fact, there are some uses of `strstr` in exactly that unsafe way in our
codebase.

Provide a new function `git__memmem` that implements the `memmem`
semantics. That is in a given haystack of `n` bytes, search for the
occurrence of a byte sequence of `m` bytes and return a pointer to the
first occurrence. The implementation chosen is the "Not So Naive"
algorithm from [1]. It was chosen as the implementation is comparably
simple while still being reasonably efficient in most cases.
Preprocessing happens in constant time and space, searching has a time
complexity of O(n*m) with a slightly sub-linear average case.

(cherry picked from commit 83e8a6b3)

When an integer that is parsed with `git__strntol32` is too big to fit
into an int32, we will generate an error message that includes the
actual string that failed to parse. This does not acknowledge the fact
that the string may either not be NUL terminated or alternative include
additional characters after the number that is to be parsed. We may thus
end up printing characters into the buffer that aren't the number or,
worse, read out of bounds.

Fix the issue by utilizing the `endptr` that was set by
`git__strntol64`. This pointer is guaranteed to be set to the first
character following the number, and we can thus use it to compute the
width of the number that shall be printed. Create a test to verify that
we correctly truncate the number.

(cherry picked from commit ea19efc1)

While `git__strntol64` tries to detect integer overflows when doing the
necessary arithmetics to come up with the final result, it does the
detection only after the fact. This check thus relies on undefined
behavior of signed integer overflows. Fix this by instead checking
up-front whether the multiplications or additions will overflow.

Note that a detected overflow will not cause us to abort parsing the
current sequence of digits. In the case of an overflow, previous
behavior was to still set up the end pointer correctly to point to the
first character immediately after the currently parsed number. We do not
want to change this now as code may rely on the end pointer being set up
correctly even if the parsed number is too big to be represented as
64 bit integer.

(cherry picked from commit b09c1c7b)

Some edge cases were currently completely untested, e.g. parsing numbers
greater than INT64_{MIN,MAX}, truncating buffers by length and invalid
characters. Add tests to verify that the system under test performs as
expected.

(cherry picked from commit 39087ab8)

The function `git__strtol32` can easily be misused when untrusted data
is passed to it that may not have been sanitized with trailing `NUL`
bytes. As all usages of this function have now been removed, we can
remove this function altogether to avoid future misuse of it.

(cherry picked from commit 8d7fa88a)

Replace remaining uses of the `git__strtol32` function. While these uses
are all safe as the strings were either sanitized or from a trusted
source, we want to remove `git__strtol32` altogether to avoid future
misuse.

(cherry picked from commit 2613fbb2)

We use the `git__strtol32` function to parse the child and entry count
of treecaches from the index, which do not accept a buffer length. As
the buffer that is being passed in is untrusted data and may thus be
malformed and may not contain a terminating `NUL` byte, we can overrun
the buffer and thus perform an out-of-bounds read.

Fix the issue by uzing `git__strntol32` instead.

(cherry picked from commit 21652ee9)

The function `git__strtol64` does not take a maximum buffer length as
parameter. This has led to some unsafe usages of this function, and as
such we may consider it as being unsafe to use. As we have now
eradicated all usages of this function, let's remove it completely to
avoid future misuse.

(cherry picked from commit 68deb2cc)

When parsing integers from configuration values, we use `git__strtol64`.
This is fine to do, as we always sanitize values and can thus be sure
that they'll have a terminating `NUL` byte. But as this is the last
call-site of `git__strtol64`, let's just pass in the length explicitly
by calling `strlen` on the value to be able to remove `git__strtol64`
altogether.

(cherry picked from commit 1a2efd10)

We use `git__strtol64` and `git__strtol32` to parse the trailing commit
or author date and timezone of signatures. As signatures are usually
part of a commit or tag object and thus essentially untrusted data, the
buffer may be misformatted and may not be `NUL` terminated. This may
lead to an out-of-bounds read.

Fix the issue by using `git__strntol64` and `git__strntol32` instead.

(cherry picked from commit 3db9aa6f)

We use `git__strtol64` to parse file modes of the index entries, which
does not limit the parsed buffer length. As the index can be essentially
treated as "untrusted" in that the data stems from the file system, it
may be misformatted and may not contain terminating `NUL` bytes. This
may lead to out-of-bounds reads when trying to parse index entries with
such malformatted modes.

Fix the issue by using `git__strntol64` instead.

(cherry picked from commit 600ceadd)

When quick-parsing a commit, we use `git__strtol64` to parse the
commit's time. The buffer that's passed to `commit_quick_parse` is the
raw data of an ODB object, though, whose data may not be properly
formatted and also does not have to be `NUL` terminated. This may lead
to out-of-bound reads.

Use `git__strntol64` to avoid this problem.

Don't stop on test failures; run all the tests, even when a test fails.

(cherry picked from commit 429c7f11)

Similar to the way we parse the ctest output on POSIX systems, do the
same on Windows.  This allows us to append the `-r` flag to clar after
we've identified the command to run.

(cherry picked from commit 7c9769d9)

Introduce SKIP_*_TEST variables for Windows builds to match POSIX
builds.

Add the clar flags to produce JUnit-style XML output before invocation.

This reverts commit a2d73f56.
Using clar to propagate the XML settings was a mistake.

(cherry picked from commit 943181c2)

Our CI test system invokes ctest with the name of the given tests it
wishes to invoke.  ctest (with the `-R` flag) treats this name as a
regular expression.  Provide anchors in the regular expression to avoid
matching additional tests in this search.

Instead of trying to have a clever iterator pattern that increments the
error number, just iterate over errors in the report errors or report
