[PATCH v5 0/3] built-in add -p: support diff-so-fancy better

["Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

Philippe Blain reported in
https://lore.kernel.org/git/ecf6f5be-22ca-299f-a8f1-bda38e5ca246@gmail.com
that there is a problem when running the built-in version of git add -p with
diff-so-fancy [https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy] as diff colorizer.
The symptom is this:

    error: could not parse colored hunk header '?[36m?[1m?[38;5;13m@ file:1 @?[1m?[0m'


This patch series addresses that and should fix
https://github.com/so-fancy/diff-so-fancy/issues/437

Changes since v4:

 * The second patch was further simplified, avoiding to print extra ANSI
   sequences if the hunk header is shown verbatim.

Changes since v3:

 * Instead of deviating from how the Perl version of git add -p did things,
   we now teach the built-in version to display hunk headers verbatim when
   no line range could be parsed out (instead of showing the line range
   anyways). This was a very good idea of Phillip's, dramatically
   simplifying the patch series.
 * Also, this iteration drops the first patch that claims to redefine what
   we consider bogus, but only hides an off-by-one. In its stead, there is
   now a patch that fixes said off-by-one.

Changes since v2:

 * Added the appropriate "Reported-by" trailer to the commit message.
 * Split out the logic to insert a space between the colored line range and
   the extra information, if needed.
 * That logic was now corrected to see whether that space is really needed.
 * To verify that the logic does what we need it to do, the added regression
   test now specifically tests for that (single) extra space that we want to
   be inserted.
 * Reworded a stale comment that claimed that we might suppress the entire
   colored hunk header (which we no longer do).
 * Rebased to the current tip of the main branch to avoid a merge conflict
   with 716c1f649e3 (pipe_command(): mark stdin descriptor as non-blocking,
   2022-08-17).

Changes since v1:

 * Added a commit to ignore dirty submodules just like the Perl version
   does.

Johannes Schindelin (3):
  add -p: detect more mismatches between plain vs colored diffs
  add -p: gracefully handle unparseable hunk headers in colored diffs
  add -p: ignore dirty submodules

          we should show the hunk headers verbatim. This is what the Perl version
          of the interactive `add` command did, too.
