This series is reroll of previous version of smart transport extensions,
with various technical nits addressed and some errors fixed. Also rebased
on top of latest next.
Major changes:
- Service names now have 'git-' prefix.
- Successful response to <connect> is "", not "OK".
- Removed <connect> "ERROR" response.
- <connect-r> renamed to <connect>.
- <invoke-r> removed. Pass service executable as option "servpath" instead.
- HTTP helpers are now hardlinked if possible (copied if not).
- Revert the changes to invoking helpers (see known issues)
Known issues (not caused by this code and does not need this code to be
visible):
- Segfaults when closing transports, caused by double-frees
- Funky error message if trying to use not-present helper.
