Fix "config_error_nonbool" used with value instead of key

The function "config_error_nonbool", that is defined in "config.c",
is used to report an error when a config key in the config file
should have a corresponding value but it hasn't.

So the parameter to this function should be the key and not the
value, because the value is undefined. And it could crash if the
value is used.

This patches fixes two occurences where the value was passed
instead of the key.

git-svn: avoid filling up the disk with temp files.

Commit ffe256f9bac8a40ff751a9341a5869d98f72c285 ("git-svn: Speed up fetch")
introduced changes that create a temporary file for each object fetched by
svn.  These files should be deleted automatically, but perl apparently
doesn't do this until the process exits (or perhaps when its garbage
collector runs).

This means that on a large fetch, especially with lots of branches, we
sometimes fill up /tmp completely, which prevents the next temp file from
being written completely.  This is aggravated by the fact that a new temp
file is created for each updated file, even if that update produces a file
identical to one already in git.  Thus, it can happen even if there's lots
of disk space to store the finished repository.

We weren't adequately checking for write errors, so this would result in an
invalid file getting committed, which caused git-svn to fail later with an
invalid checksum.

This patch adds a check to syswrite() so similar problems don't lead to
corruption in the future.  It also unlink()'s each temp file explicitly
when we're done with it, so the disk doesn't need to fill up.

git cat-file: Fix memory leak in batch mode

When run in batch mode, git cat-file never frees the memory for the blob
contents it is printing. This quickly adds up and causes git-svn to be
hardly usable for imports of large svn repos, because it uses cat-file in
batch mode and cat-file's memory usage easily reaches several hundred MB
without any good reason.

This patch uses the "is_git_command" function to test early if the
argument passed to "git help" is a git command, and if this is not the
case then we prefix the argument with "git" instead of "git-".

This way, things like "git help tutorial" or "git help glossary" will
work fine.

git-apply: handle a patch that touches the same path more than once better

When working with a lot of people who backport patches all day long, every
once in a while I get a patch that modifies the same file more than once
inside the same patch.  git-apply either fails if the second change relies
on the first change or silently drops the first change if the second change
is independent.

The silent part is the scary scenario for us.  Also this behaviour is
different from the patch-utils.

I have modified git-apply to create a table of the filenames of files it
modifies such that if a later patch chunk modifies a file in the table it
will buffer the previously changed file instead of reading the original file
from disk.

Logic has been put in to handle creations/deletions/renames/copies.  All the
relevant tests of git-apply succeed.

A new test has been added to cover the cases I addressed.

The fix is relatively straight-forward.
