Fix buffer overflow in config parser

character(s) and puts -one- space character in the buffer as soon as
the first non-space character is encountered (if not inside quotes).

Ack, ack.

There's another easy 5% or so for the built-in object walker: once we've
created the hash from the name, the name isn't interesting any more, and
so something trivial like this can help a bit.

Does it matter? Probably not on its own. But a few more memory saving
tricks and it might all make a difference.

avoid possible overflow in delta size filtering computation

On a 32-bit system, the maximum possible size for an object is less than
4GB, while 64-bit systems may cope with larger objects.  Due to this
limitation, variables holding object sizes are using an unsigned long

When large objects are encountered, and/or people play with large delta
depth values, it is possible for the maximum allowed delta size
computation to overflow, especially on a 32-bit system.  When this
occurs, surviving result bits may represent a value much smaller than
what it is supposed to be, or even zero.  This prevents some objects
from being deltified although they do get deltified when a smaller depth

bisect: fix quoting TRIED revs when "bad" commit is also "skip"ped

When the "bad" commit was also "skip"ped and when more than one
commit was skipped, the "filter_skipped" function would have
printed something like:

    bisect_rev=<hash1>|<hash2>

(where <hash1> and <hash2> are hexadecimal sha1 hashes)

and this would have been evaled later as piping "bisect_rev=<hash1>"
into "<hash2>", which would have failed.

So this patch makes the "filter_skipped" function properly quote
what it outputs, so that it will print something like:

bisect_rev='<hash1>|<hash2>'

which will be properly evaled later.  The caller was not stopping
properly because the scriptlet this function returned to be evaled
was not strung together with && and because of this, an error in
an earlier part of the output was simply ignored.

A test case is added to the test suite.

And while at it, we also initialize the VARS, FOUND and TRIED
variables, so that we protect ourselves from environment variables
the user may have with these names.
