path: unify `git_path_is_*` APIs · 92159bd4
Right now, there's quite a lot of different function calls to determine whether a path component matches a specific name after normalization from the filesystem. We have a function for each of {gitattributes, gitmodules, gitignore} multiplicated with {generic, NTFS, HFS} checks. In the long time, this is unmaintainable in case there are e.g. new filesystems with specific semantics, blowing up the number of functions we need to implement. Replace all functions with a simple `git_path_is_gitfile` function, which accepts an enum pointing out the filename that is to be checked against as well as the filesystem normalizations to check for. This greatly simplifies implementation at the expense of the caller having to invoke a somewhat longer function call.
