[PATCH 01/14] pull: implement fetch + merge

[Paul Tan <pyokagan@gmail.com>]

Start off the rewrite of git-pull.sh to C by implementing a simple
git-pull builtin that:

1. Parses the command line arguments into [<repo> [<refspecs>...]]

2. Runs git-fetch, passing the repo and refspecs to it.

3. Runs git-merge FETCH_HEAD.

Due to missing features, several tests are disabled:

* Passing flags to git fetch, rebase, merge:

  * t5521: verbosity flags -v, -s

* Passing flags to git-merge, git-rebase:

  * t5150, t5572: Pass --ff, --no-ff, --ff-only to git-merge

  * t5520, t5521, t7406: Support --rebase, branch.*.rebase and
    pull.rebase config

  * t6029, t4013: -s/--strategy

  * t6037: -X/--strategy-option

  * t5524: --log

* Passing flags to git-fetch:

  * t5521: --dry-run

  * t5500: --depth

  * t5521: --force

  * t5521: --all

  * t7403: --no-recurse-submodules

* t7601: pull.ff config sets --ff, --no-ff, --ff-only

* t5520: branch.*.rebase or pull.rebase sets --rebase, --rebase=preserve

* t5520: Pulling into void

* t5520: appropriate user-friendly error messages on no merge candidates
  case

* t5520: appropriate user-friendly error messages if index has
  unresolved entries.

* t5520: fast-forward working tree if branch head is updated by
  git-fetch

* t5520: set reflog action to "pull args..."

These features will be re-implemented in succeeding patches.
