UPDATE: this is now based on ag/merge-strategies-in-c to avoid conflicts in 'seen'. The changes in builtin/rm.c still conflict with mt/rm-sparse-checkout, but that branch seems to be waiting for a clearer plan on some corner cases. I thought about ejecting it, but 'rm' still uses ce_match_stat(), so just dropping the patch gives less of a final stake at the end of the series. (I'm still open to it, if necessary.)
I noticed that Duy's project around USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS has been on pause for a while. Here is my attempt to continue that project a little.
I started going through the builtins that still use cache_name_pos() and the first was easy: mv and rm.
Then I hit update-index and it was a bit bigger.
My strategy for update-index was to create static globals "repo" and "istate" that point to the_repository and the_index, respectively. Then, I was able to remove macros one-by-one without changing method prototypes within the file. Then, these static globals were also removed by systematically updating the local method prototypes, plus some fancy structure stuff for the option parsing callbacks.
I had started trying to keep everything local to the method signatures, but I hit a snag when reaching the command-line parsing callbacks, which I could not modify their call signature. At that point, I had something that was already much more complicated than what I present now. Outside of the first update-index commit, everything was a mechanical find/replace.
In total, this allows us to remove four of the compatibility macros because they are no longer used.
Updates in V2 =============
* newly based on ag/merge-strategies-in-c, as there were some interesting conflicts in buitin/update-index.c.
* Patch to update builtin/merge-index.c was dropped as that is already handled in ag/merge-strategies-in-c
* I added patches that remove the static globals that I injected to make the compatibility macros easy to delete. I do this in three parts.
* Commit messages improved.
Thanks, -Stolee

@@ Commit message
To reduce the need for the index compatibility macros, we will replace
their uses in update-index mechanically. This is the most interesting
change, which creates global "repo" and "istate" pointers. The macros
- can then be mechanically replaced by instances that use the istate
- pointer instead of the version that autocompletes to use the_index.
+ that expand to use the_index can then be mechanically replaced by
+ references to the istate pointer.

update-index: remove ce_match_stat(), all macros

+ builtin is ce_match_stat(). Further, this is the last use of that macro

## Commit message ##
- merge-index: drop index compatibility macros
+ update-index: reduce static globals, part 2
- Replace uses of the old macros for the_index and instead pass around a
- 'struct index_state' pointer. This allows dropping the compatibility
- flag.
+ In order to remove index compatibility macros cleanly, we relied upon
+ static globals 'repo' and 'istate' to be pointers to the_repository and
+ the_index, respectively. We can continue reducing the need for these
+ static globals by modifying method prototypes to use them when
+ necessary.
+
+ Move these static globals further down the file so we can identify which
+ methods need both 'struct repository *repo' and 'struct index_state
+ *istate' parameters. The only changes included here adjust method
+ prototypes and their call locations.
+
+ The only remaining change is to remove the static globals entirely, but
+ that requires updating the parse-opt callbacks, which need a different
+ solution.
