* jk/unify-exit-code-by-receiving-signal:
run-command: encode signal death as a positive integer

When a sub-command dies due to a signal, we encode the
signal number into the numeric exit status as "signal -
128". This is easy to identify (versus a regular positive
error code), and when cast to an unsigned integer (e.g., by
feeding it to exit), matches what a POSIX shell would return
when reporting a signal death in $? or through its own exit
code.
So we have a negative value inside the code, but once it
passes across an exit() barrier, it looks positive (and any
code we receive from a sub-shell will have the positive
form). E.g., death by SIGPIPE (signal 13) will look like
-115 to us in inside git, but will end up as 141 when we
call exit() with it. And a program killed by SIGPIPE but run
via the shell will come to us with an exit code of 141.
Unfortunately, this means that when the "use_shell" option
is set, we need to be on the lookout for _both_ forms. We
might or might not have actually invoked the shell (because
we optimize out some useless shell calls). If we didn't invoke
the shell, we will will see the sub-process's signal death
directly, and run-command converts it into a negative value.
But if we did invoke the shell, we will see the shell's
128+signal exit status. To be thorough, we would need to
check both, or cast the value to an unsigned char (after
checking that it is not -1, which is a magic error value).
Fortunately, most callsites do not care at all whether the
exit was from a code or from a signal; they merely check for
a non-zero status, and sometimes propagate the error via
exit(). But for the callers that do care, we can make life
slightly easier by just using the consistent positive form.
This actually fixes two minor bugs:
1. In launch_editor, we check whether the editor died from
SIGINT or SIGQUIT. But we checked only the negative
form, meaning that we would fail to notice a signal
death exit code which was propagated through the shell.
2. In handle_alias, we assume that a negative return value
from run_command means that errno tells us something
interesting (like a fork failure, or ENOENT).
Otherwise, we simply propagate the exit code. Negative
signal death codes confuse us, and we print a useless
"unable to run alias 'foo': Success" message. By
encoding signal deaths using the positive form, the
existing code just propagates it as it would a normal
non-zero exit code.
The downside is that callers of run_command can no longer
differentiate between a signal received directly by the
sub-process, and one propagated. However, no caller
currently cares, and since we already optimize out some
calls to the shell under the hood, that distinction is not
something that should be relied upon by callers.
Fix the same logic in t/test-terminal.perl for consistency [jc:
raised by Jonathan in the discussion].

When building manual pages, the source text is transformed to XML with
AsciiDoc before the man pages are generated from the XML with xmlto.
Fix the dependencies in the Makefile so that the XML files are rebuilt
when asciidoc.conf changes and not just the manual pages from
unchanged XML, and move the dependencies from a recipeless rule to the
rules with commands that use asciidoc.conf to make the dependencies
easier to understand and maintain.

The documentation for the ALLOC_GROW API implicitly encouraged
developers to use "ary" as the variable name for the array which is
dynamically grown. However "ary" is an unusual abbreviation hardly
used anywhere else in the source tree, and it is also better to name
variables based on their contents not on their type.

When 1d52b02 (Documentation: minor grammatical fixes and rewording

critical hint to tell readers why this particular bundle can be
cloned from. Resurrect it.

Because the bundle created in the example does not record HEAD, "git
clone" will not check out the files to the working tree:
$ git clone pr.bundle q/
Cloning into 'q'...
Receiving objects: 100% (619/619), 13.52 MiB | 18.74 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (413/413), done.
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.
Avoid alarming the readers by adding "-b master" to the example. A
better fix may be to arrange the bundle created in the earlier step
to record HEAD, so that it can be cloned without this workaround.

On a multiuser system where mortals do not have write access to /etc,
the GIT_CONFIG_NOSYSTEM variable is the best tool we have to keep
getting work done when a syntax error or other problem renders
/etc/gitconfig buggy, until the sysadmin sorts the problem out.
Noticed while experimenting with teaching git to error out when
/etc/gitconfig is unreadable.

In the distant past, the order things were documented was
'Invocation', 'Commands', 'Capabilities', ...
Then it was decided that before giving a list of Commands, there
should be an overall description of the 'Input format', which was
a wise decision. However, this description was put as the very
first thing, with the rationale that any implementor would want
to know that first.
However, it seems an implementor would actually first need to
know how the remote helper will be invoked, so moving
'Invocation' to the front again seems logical. Moreover, we now
don't switch from discussing the input format to the invocation
style and then back to input related stuff.
