Functional change: treat an empty author, UUID, or URL as none at all.

svn:author property, the first rev will be treated as by "nobody"
rather than by a person with empty name and email address created by

stash: copy the index using --index-output instead of cp -p

'git stash create' must operate with a temporary index. For this purpose,
it used 'cp -p' to create a copy. -p is needed to preserve the timestamp
of the index file. Now Jakob Pfender reported a certain combination of
a Linux NFS client, OpenBSD NFS server, and cp implementation where this
operation failed.

Luckily, the first operation in git-stash after copying the index is to
call 'git read-tree'. Therefore, use --index-output instead of 'cp -p'
to write the copy of the index.

--index-output requires that the specified file is on the same volume as
the source index, so that the lock file can be rename()d. For this reason,
the name of the temporary index is constructed in a way different from the
other temporary files. The code path of 'stash -p' also needs a temporary
index, but we do not use the new name because it does not depend on the
same precondition as --index-output.

tests: scrub environment of GIT_* variables

Variables from the inherited environment that are meaningful to git
can break tests in undesirable ways.  For example,

GIT_PAGER=more sh t5400-send-pack.sh -v -i

hangs.  So unset all environment variables in the GIT_ namespace in
test-lib, with a few exceptions:

- GIT_TRACE* are useful for tracking down bugs exhibited by a failing
  test;

- GIT_DEBUG* are GIT_TRACE variables by another name, practically
  speaking.  They should probably be tweaked to follow the
  GIT_TRACE_foo scheme and use trace_printf machinery some time.

- GIT_USE_LOOKUP from v1.5.6-rc0~134^2~1 (sha1-lookup: more memory
  efficient search in sorted list of SHA-1, 2007-12-29) is about
  trying an alternate implementation strategy rather than changing
