the same fd twice, and when our end is connected to a pipepair

closing the same fd twice when we are talking over a single

At @{9}, I had a commit to complete 5 patch series, but I wanted
to consolidate two commits that enhances read_ref_at() into one
(they were @{9}^ and @{9}~3), and another two that touch show-branch
into one (@{9} and @{9}~2).

I first saved them with "format-patch -4", and then did a reset
at @{8}.  At @{7}, I applied one of them with "am", and then
used "git-apply" on the other one, and amended the commit at
@{6} (so @{6} and @{7} has the same parent).  I did not like the
log message, so I amended again at @{5}.

Then I cherry-picked @{9}~2 to create @{3} (the log message
shows that it needs to learn to set GIT_REFLOG_ACTION -- it uses
"git-commit" and the log entry is attributed for it).  Another
cherry-pick built @{2} out of @{9}, but what I wanted to do was
to squash these two into one, so I did a "reset HEAD^" at @{1}
and then made the final commit by amending what was at the top.

Document pack .idx file format upgrade strategy.

Way back when Junio developed the 64 bit index topic he came up
with a means of changing the .idx file format so that older Git
clients would recognize that they don't understand the file and
refuse to read it, while newer clients could tell the difference
between the old-style and new-style .idx files.  Unfortunately
this wasn't recorded anywhere.

This change documents how we might go about changing the .idx
file format by using a special signature in the first four bytes.
Credit (and possible blame) goes completely to Junio for thinking
up this technique.

The change also modifies the error message of the current Git code
so that users get a recommendation to upgrade their Git software
should this version or later encounter a new-style .idx which it
cannot process.  We already do this for the .pack files, but since
we usually process the .idx files first its important that these
files are recognized and encourage an upgrade.

Fix spurious compile error

From time to time, I would get this error:

[...]
sed: -e expression #8, char 41: Unterminated `s' command
make: *** [git-add--interactive] Error 1

Turns out that the function WriteMakefile() called in Makefile.PL
outputs the message "Writing perl.mak for Git" to stdout! Thus,
the output of "make -C perl -s --no-print-directory instlibdir"
would be prefixed by that message whenever Makefile.PL was newer
than perl.mak.

This is fixed by redirecting stdout to stderr in Makefile.PL.

People that redirect STDOUT output should always see STDERR
prompts interactively.

STDERR should always be flushed without buffering, so
they should always show up.  If that is unset, we still
explicitly flush by calling STDERR->flush.

The svn command-line client prompts to STDERR, too.
