The ancient merge_blobs function (which is used nowhere
except in the equally ancient git-merge-tree, which does
not itself seem to be called by any modern git code), tries
to create a plausible base object for an add/add conflict by
finding the common parts of the "ours" and "theirs" blobs.
It does so by calling xdiff with XDIFF_EMIT_COMMON, and
stores the result in a buffer that is as big as the smaller
of "ours" and "theirs".
In theory, this is right; we cannot have more common content
than is in the smaller of the two blobs. But in practice,
xdiff may give us more: if neither file ends in a newline,
we get the "\nNo newline at end of file" marker.
This is somewhat of a bug in itself (the "no newline" string
becomes part of the blob output!), but much worse is that we
may overflow our output buffer with this string (if the
common content was otherwise close to the size of the
smaller blob).
The minimal fix for the memory corruption is to size the
buffer appropriately. We could do so by manually adding in
an extra 29 bytes for the "no newline" string to our buffer
size. But that's somewhat fragile. Instead, let's replace
the fixed-size output buffer with a strbuf which can grow as
necessary.

There are two different static functions and one global function,
all of them called "merge_file()", with different signatures and
purposes. Rename them all to reduce confusion in "git grep" output:
* Rename the static one in merge-index to "merge_one_path(const char
*path)" as that function is about asking an external command to
resolve conflicts in one path.
* Rename the global one in merge-file.c that is only used by
merge-tree to "merge_blobs()", as the function takes three blobs and
returns the merged result only in-core, without doing anything to
the filesystem.
* Rename the one in merge-recursive to "merge_one_file()", just to be
fair.
Also rename merge-file.[ch] to merge-blobs.[ch].
