[PATCH v2 00/14] Improve git-status --ignored

[Karsten Blees <karsten.blees@gmail.com>]

This patch series addresses several bugs and performance issues in
.gitignore processing.

Patches #1 - #6 fix bugs and add appropriate test cases.

Patch #7 changes handling of "ignored tracked" directories, as I discovered
that with the current bahavior git-clean can delete tracked content.

Patches #8 - #14 are performance optimizations.

Changes since v1 (old#->new#: description):

1->1: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't drop ignored directories
2->2: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list files in ignored directories
3->3: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty ignored directories

*->4: dir.c: git-ls-files --directories: don't hide empty directories
      - new bugfix

4->5: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't list empty directories as ignored
      - fixed typo in commit message thanks to Eric Sunshine
      - patch is reduced to a one-liner (the DIR_HIDE_EMPTY_DIRECTORIES
        flag has already been fixed in patch 4, renaming the variable and
	tweaking DIR_SHOW_OTHER_DIRECTORIES is not strictly necessary)

*->6: dir.c: make 'git-status --ignored' work within leading directories
      - new bugfix

*->7: dir.c: git-clean -d -X: don't delete tracked directories
      - changes handling of "ignored tracked" directories

5->8: dir.c: factor out parts of last_exclude_matching for later reuse
5->9: dir.c: move prep_exclude
      - split in two patches for cleaner diff
      - removed unnecessary ';' after '}'

6->10: dir.c: unify is_excluded and is_path_excluded APIs
       - fixed another typo in commit message

7->11: dir.c: replace is_path_excluded with now equivalent is_excluded API
8->12: dir.c: git-status: avoid is_excluded checks for tracked files

*->13: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree three times
       - new optimization

*->14: dir.c: git-status --ignored: don't scan the work tree twice
       - new optimization
