test-genrandom: ensure stdout is set to _O_BINARY on Windows

Commit a6ca8c62 (Set _O_BINARY as default fmode for both MinGW and MSVC)
removed the definition of _CRT_fmode from mingw.c. Before this commit,
since test-genrandom is linked against libgit.a, the MinGW process
initialization code would pick up that definition of _CRT_fmode, which was
initialized to _O_BINARY. After this commit, however, text mode is used
for std(in|out|err) because it is the default in absence of _CRT_fmode.
In order to fix that, we must use git-compat-util.h, which overrides
main() to set the mode to binary.

when these messages are given, but the messages look a lot more scarier
than the conflicted case where the user needs to resolve them.

Replace the plumbing level messages so that they talk about what it is
protecting the user from, and end the messages with "Aborting." so that it
becomes clear that the command did not do any harm.

The final "merging of trees failed" message is superfluous, unless you are
interested in debugging the merge-recursive itself.  Squelch the current
die() message by default, but allow it to help people who debug git with
verbosity level 4 or greater.

Unless there is some bug, an inner merge that does not touch working tree
should not trigger any such error, so emit the current die() message when
we see an error return from it while running the inner merge, too.  It
would also help people who debug git.

We could later add instructions on how to recover (i.e. "stash changes
away or commit on a side branch and retry") instead of the silent
exit(128) I have in this patch, and then use Peff's advice.* mechanism to
squelch it (e.g. "advice.mergeindirtytree"), but they are separate topics.

Add url.<base>.pushInsteadOf: URL rewriting for push only

This configuration option allows systematically rewriting fetch-only URLs
to push-capable URLs when used with push.  For instance:

[url "ssh://example.org/"]
    pushInsteadOf = "git://example.org/"

This will allow clones of "git://example.org/path/to/repo" to subsequently
push to "ssh://example.org/path/to/repo", without manually configuring
pushurl for that remote.

Includes documentation for the new option, bash completion updates, and
test cases (both that pushInsteadOf applies to push, that it does not
apply to fetch, and that it is ignored when pushURL is already defined).

make shallow repository deepening more network efficient

First of all, I can't find any reason why thin pack generation is
explicitly disabled when dealing with a shallow repository.  The
possible delta base objects are collected from the edge commits which
are always obtained through history walking with the same shallow refs
as the client, Therefore the client is always going to have those base
objects available. So let's remove that restriction.

Then we can make shallow repository deepening much more efficient by
using the remote's unshallowed commits as edge commits to get preferred
base objects for thin pack generation.  On git.git, this makes the data
transfer for the deepening of a shallow repository from depth 1 to depth 2
around 134 KB instead of 3.68 MB.
