[PATCH 1/5] run-command: add preliminary support for multiple hooks

From

In-Reply-To
<20190424004948.728326-1-sandals@crustytoothpaste.net>

A variety of types of software take advantage of Git's hooks. However, if a user would like to integrate multiple pieces of software which use a particular hook, they currently must manage those hooks themselves, which can be burdensome. Sometimes various pieces of software try to overwrite each other's hooks, leading to problems.

To solve this problem, introduce a framework for running multiple hooks using a ".d" directory named similarly to the hook, running each hook in order sorted by name. Wire this framework up for those functions using run_hook_le or run_hook_ve. To preserve backwards compatibility, ensure that multiple hooks run only if there is no hook using the current hook style.

If we are running multiple hooks and one of them exits nonzero, don't execute the remaining hooks and return that exit code immediately. This allows hooks to fail fast and it avoids having to deal with what happens if multiple hooks fail with different exit statuses.

Create a test framework for testing multiple hooks with different commands. This is necessary because not all hooks use run_hook_ve or run_hook_le and we'll want to ensure all the various hooks work without needing to write lots of duplicative test code.

Test the pre-commit hook to verify that the run_hook_ve implementation works correctly.
