simplify-merges: drop merge from irrelevant side branch

The merge simplification rule stated in 6546b59 (revision traversal:
show full history with merge simplification, 2008-07-31) still
treated merge commits too specially.  Namely, in a history with this
shape:

	---o---o---M
	          /
         x---x---x

where three 'x' were on a history completely unrelated to the main
history 'o' and do not touch any of the paths we are following, we
still said that after simplifying all of the parents of M, 'x'
(which is the leftmost 'x' that rightmost 'x simplifies down to) and
'o' (which would be the last commit on the main history that touches
the paths we are following) are independent from each other, and
both need to be kept.

That is incorrect; when the side branch 'x' never touches the paths,
it should be removed to allow M to simplify down to the last commit
on the main history that touches the paths.

config.mak.in: remove unused definitions

When 5566771 (autoconf: Use autoconf to write installation
directories to config.mak.autogen, 2006-07-03) introduced support
for autoconf generated config.mak file, it added an "export" for a
few common makefile variables, in addition to definitions of srcdir
and VPATH.

The "export" logically does not belong there.  The make variables
like mandir, prefix, etc, should be exported to submakes for people
who use config.mak and people who use config.mak.autogen the same
way; if we want to get these exported, that should be in the main
Makefile.

We do use mandir and htmldir in Documentation/Makefile, so let's
add export for them in the main Makefile instead.

We may eventually want to support VPATH, and srcdir may turn out to
be useful for that purpose, but right now nobody uses it, so it is
useless to define them in this file.

commit, cherry-pick -s: remove broken support for multiline rfc2822 fields

Starting with c1e01b0c (commit: More generous accepting of RFC-2822 footer
lines, 2009-10-28), "git commit -s" carefully parses the last paragraph of
each commit message to check if it consists only of RFC2822-style headers,
in which case the signoff will be added as a new line in the same list:

   Reported-by: Reporter <reporter@example.com>
   Signed-off-by: Author <author@example.com>
   Acked-by: Lieutenant <lt@example.com>

It even included support for accepting indented continuation lines for
multiline fields.  Unfortunately the multiline field support is broken
because it checks whether buf[k] (the first character of the *next* line)
instead of buf[i] is a whitespace character.  The result is that any footer
with a continuation line is not accepted, since the last continuation line
neither starts with an RFC2822 field name nor is followed by a continuation
line.

That this has remained broken for so long is good evidence that nobody
actually needed multiline fields.  Rip out the broken continuation support.

There should be no functional change.

t/t3511: add some tests of 'cherry-pick -s' functionality

Add some tests to ensure that 'cherry-pick -s' operates in the following
manner:

   * Inserts a blank line before appending a s-o-b to a commit message that
     does not contain a s-o-b footer

   * Does not mistake first line "subject: description" as a s-o-b footer

   * Does not mistake single word message body as conforming to rfc2822

   * Appends a s-o-b when last s-o-b in footer does not match committer
     s-o-b, even when committer's s-o-b exists elsewhere in footer.

   * Does not append a s-o-b when last s-o-b matches committer s-o-b

   * Correctly detects a non-conforming footer containing a mix of s-o-b
     like elements and s-o-b elements. (marked "expect failure")

sequencer.c: recognize "(cherry picked from ..." as part of s-o-b footer

When 'cherry-pick -s' is used to append a signed-off-by line to a cherry
picked commit, it does not currently detect the "(cherry picked from..."
that may have been appended by a previous 'cherry-pick -x' as part of the
s-o-b footer and it will insert a blank line before appending a new s-o-b.

Let's detect "(cherry picked from...)" as part of the footer so that we
will produce this:

sequencer.c: require a conforming footer to be preceded by a blank line

Currently, append_signoff() performs a search for the last line of the
commit buffer by searching back from the end until it hits a newline.  If
it reaches the beginning of the buffer without finding a newline, that
means either the commit message was empty, or there was only one line in it.
In this case, append_signoff will skip the call to has_conforming_footer
since it already knows that it is necessary to append a newline before
appending the sob.

Let's perform this function inside of has_conforming_footer where it
appropriately belongs and generalize it so that we require that the
footer paragraph be an actual distinct paragraph separated by a blank
line.
