Drop the GLibc implementation of Merge Sort and replace it with Timsort.

The algorithm has been tuned to work on arrays of pointers (void **),
so there's no longer a need to abstract the byte-width of each element
in the array.

All the comparison callbacks now take pointers-to-elements, not
pointers-to-pointers, so there's now one less level of dereferencing.

E.g.

	 int index_cmp(const void *a, const void *b)
	 {
	-	const git_index_entry *entry_a = *(const git_index_entry **)(a);
	+	const git_index_entry *entry_a = (const git_index_entry *)(a);

The result is up to a 40% speed-up when sorting vectors. Memory usage
remains lineal.

A new `bsearch` implementation has been added, whose callback also
supplies pointer-to-elements, to uniform the Vector API again.

Fix network MSYS compilation

`git_futils_rmdir_r`: rename, clean up.

`git_reference_rename`: cleanup. Do not use 3x4096 buffers on the stack
or things will get ugly very fast. We can reuse the same buffer.

reference_rename: git compliant reference renaming v2

MSYS/MinGW uses winsock but obviously doesn't set _MSC_VER. Use _WIN32
to decide whether to use winsock or BSD headers. Also remove these
headers from src/transport_git.c altogether, as they are not needed.

MSYS is very conservative, so we have to tell it that we don't care
about versions of Windows lower than WindowsXP. We also need to tell
CMake to add ws2_32 to the libraries list and we shouldn't add the
-fPIC option, to MSYS because it complains that it does it anyway.

 - msvc compilation warnings
 - not released file handle that prevents file removal

So far libgit2 didn't handle the following scenarios:

* Rename of reference m   -> m/m
* Rename of reference n/n -> n

Fixed.

Since we don't write reflogs, we have to delete any old reflog for the
renamed reference. Otherwise git.git will possibly fail when it finds
invalid logs.

It removes all entries with equal path except last added.

On large indexes git_index_append() + git_index_uniq() before writing is
*much* faster, than git_index_add().

of elements with equal keys remains in the vector.

Index operation use git_vector_sort() to sort index entries. Since index
support adding duplicates (two or more entries with the same path), it's
important to preserve order of elements. Preserving order of elements
allows to make decisions based on order. For example it's possible to
implement function witch removes all duplicates except last added.

In some cases it's important to preserve order of elements with equal
keys (stable sort). qsort(3) doesn't define order of elements with
equal keys.

git__msort() implements merge sort which is stable sort.

Implementation taken from git. Function renamed git_qsort() -> git__msort().

git_index_find() in index_insert() is useless if replace is not
requested (append). Do not call it in this case.
It speedup git_index_append() *dramatically* on large indexes.

$ cat index_test.c

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
        git_index *index;
        git_repository *repo;
        git_odb *odb;
        struct git_index_entry entry;
        git_oid tree_oid;
        char tree_hex[41];
        int i;

        git_repository_init(&repo, "/tmp/myrepo", 0);
        odb = git_repository_database(repo);
        git_repository_index(&index, repo);

        memset(&entry, 0, sizeof(entry));
        git_odb_write(&entry.oid, odb, "", 0, GIT_OBJ_BLOB);
        entry.path = "test.file";

        for (i = 0; i < 50000; i++)
                git_index_append2(index, &entry);

        git_tree_create_fromindex(&tree_oid, index);
        git_oid_fmt(tree_hex, &tree_oid);
        tree_hex[40] = '\0';
        printf("tree: %s\n", tree_hex);

        git_index_free(index);
        git_repository_free(repo);

        return 0;
}

$ time ./index_test
