commit: --cleanup is a message option

In the usage message for "git commit", the --cleanup option appeared
at the end, as one of the "contents options":

usage: git commit [options] [--] <filepattern>...

Commit contents options
...
    --allow-empty         ok to record an empty change
    --cleanup <default>   how to strip spaces and #comments from message

This is confusing, in part because it makes it ambiguous whether
--allow-empty, just above, refers to an empty diff or an empty message.

Move --cleanup into the 'message options' group.  Also add a pair of
comments to prevent similar oversights in the future.

ignore unknown color configuration

When parsing the config file, if there is a value that is

the config file, and it means that configuration files can
be shared between new and old versions of git (the old
versions might simply ignore certain configuration).

The one exception to this is color configuration; if we
encounter a color.{diff,branch,status}.$slot variable, we
die if it is not one of the recognized slots (presumably as
a safety valve for user misconfiguration). This behavior
has existed since 801235c (diff --color: use
$GIT_DIR/config, 2006-06-24), but hasn't yet caused a
problem. No porcelain has wanted to store extra colors, and
we once a color area (like color.diff) has been introduced,
we've never changed the set of color slots.

However, that changed recently with the addition of
color.diff.func. Now a user with color.diff.func in their
config can no longer freely switch between v1.6.6 and older
versions; the old versions will complain about the existence
of the variable.

This patch loosens the check to match the rest of
git-config; unknown color slots are simply ignored. This
doesn't fix this particular problem, as the older version
(without this patch) is the problem, but it at least
prevents it from happening again in the future.

Fix archive format with -- on the command line

Giving --format from the command line, or using output file extention to
DWIM the output format, with a pathspec that is disambiguated with an
explicit double-dash on the command line, e.g.

    git archive -o file --format=zip HEAD -- path
    git archive -o file.zip HEAD -- path

didn't work correctly.

This was because the code reordered (when one was given) or added (when
the format was inferred) a --format argument at the end, effectively
making it to "archive HEAD -- path --format=zip", i.e. an extra pathspec
that is unlikely to match anything.

The command line argument list should always be "options, revs and then
paths", and we should set a good example by inserting the --format at the
beginning instead.

They caused a "git pull" (without any arguments, and without any local
commits---only to update to the other side) to warn that commit log
message is ignored because the merge resulted in a fast-forward.

Another possible solution is to add an extra option to "git merge" so that
"git pull" can tell it that the message given is not coming from the end
user (the canned message is passed just in case the merge resulted in a
