git-rebase--interactive.sh: use printf instead of echo to print commit message

On systems with an echo which defaults to the XSI-conformant behavior
(Solaris, or others using Ksh), echo will interpret certain backslashed
characters as control sequences.  This can cause a problem for interactive
rebase when it is used to rebase commits whose commit "subject" (the first
line) contains any of these backslashed sequences.  In this case, echo will
substitute the control sequence for the backslashed characters and either
the rebased commit message will differ from the original, or the rebase
process will fail.  Neither is desirable.

So work around this issue by replacing the echo statements used to print
out portions of the commit message, with printf.

Also, add a test to test for this breakage.

t/t3700: convert two uses of negation operator '!' to use test_must_fail

These two lines use the negation '!' operator to negate the result of a
simple command.  Since these commands do not contain any pipes or other
complexities, the test_must_fail function can be used and is preferred
since it will additionally detect termination due to a signal.

This was noticed because the second use of '!' does not include a space
between the '!' and the opening parens.  Ksh interprets this as follows:

git-svn: write memoized data explicitly to avoid Storable bug

Apparently using the Storable module during global destruction is
unsafe - there is a bug which can cause segmentation faults:

  http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=36087
  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=482355

The persistent memoization support introduced in commit 8bff7c538
relied on global destruction to write cached data, which was leading
to segfaults in some Perl configurations.  Calling Memoize::unmemoize
in the END block forces the cache writeout to be performed earlier,
thus avoiding the bug.

73e25e7c (git --paginate: do not commit pager choice too early,

1b. Builtins that do not use RUN_SETUP (like git config) do
    not find GIT_DIR set correctly when the pager is launched
    from run_builtin().  So the core.pager configuration is
    not honored from subdirectories of the toplevel for them.

4a. External git commands (like git request-pull) relied on the
    early pager launch to take care of handling the -p option.
    Ever since 73e25e7c, they do not honor the -p option at all.

4b. Commands invoked through ! aliases (like ls) were also relying
    on the early pager launch.

Fix (4a) by launching the pager (if requested) before running such a
“dashed external”.  For simplicity, this still does not search for a
.git directory before running the external command; when run from a
subdirectory of the toplevel, therefore, the “[core] pager”
configuration is still not honored.

Fix (4b) by launching pager if requested before carrying out such an
alias.  Actually doing this has no effect, since the pager (if any)
would have already been launched in a failed attempt to try a
dashed external first.  The choice-of-pager-not-honored-from-
subdirectory bug still applies here, too.

(1b) is not a regression.  There is no need to fix it yet.

Use dev_t for device id (st_dev) from stat in setup_git_directory_gently()

The original declaration was int, which seems to cause trouble on my
machine.  It causes spurious "filesystem boundary" errors when running
the testsuite.  The cause seems to be

  $ stat -c%d .
  2147549952

which is too large for a 32-bit int type.

Using the correct type, dev_t, solves the issue.  (Because I'm
paranoid and forgetful, I checked -- yes, Unix v7 had dev_t.)

Other uses of st_dev seem to be reasonably safe.   fill_stat_cache_info
truncates it to an 'unsigned int', but that value seems to be used only
to validate the cache, and only if USE_STDEV is defined.
