Merge branch 'as/check-ignore'

Add a new command "git check-ignore" for debugging .gitignore
files.

The variable names may want to get cleaned up but that can be done
in-tree.

* as/check-ignore:
  clean.c, ls-files.c: respect encapsulation of exclude_list_groups
  t0008: avoid brace expansion
  add git-check-ignore sub-command
  setup.c: document get_pathspec()
  add.c: extract new die_if_path_beyond_symlink() for reuse
  add.c: extract check_path_for_gitlink() from treat_gitlinks() for reuse
  pathspec.c: rename newly public functions for clarity
  add.c: move pathspec matchers into new pathspec.c for reuse
  add.c: remove unused argument from validate_pathspec()
  dir.c: improve docs for match_pathspec() and match_pathspec_depth()
  dir.c: provide clear_directory() for reclaiming dir_struct memory
  dir.c: keep track of where patterns came from
  dir.c: use a single struct exclude_list per source of excludes

Conflicts:
	builtin/ls-files.c
	dir.c
