This series deals with strbuf_getline_lf() in certain codepaths:
Those, where the input that is read, is/was trimmed before doing anything that
could possibly expect a CR character. Those places can be assumed to be "text"
input, where a CR never would be a meaningful control character.
The purpose of this series is to document these places to have this property,
by using strbuf_getline() instead of strbuf_getline_lf(). Also in some codepaths,
the CR could be a leftover of an editor and is thus removed.
Every codepath was examined, if after the change it is still necessary to have
trimming or if the additional CRLR-removal suffices.
The series is an idea out of [1], where Junio proposed to replace the calls
to strbuf_getline_lf() because it 'would [be] a good way to document them as
dealing with "text"'.
Changes since v1:
* adapting the behaviour of sq_(de)quote to be a one-to-one transformation
* removing some unneccesary trimming calls in:
* wt-status.c
* builting/notes.c
* builtin/clean.c
* bisect.c
