libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by
`git_buf`.  We require:

1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs
   for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc).
2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they
   can take ownership of.

By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have
confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and
reasoning about correctness is also difficult.

Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents
its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class.  The name also
is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr").

The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint.  It
is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that
follow the documentation.  (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to
avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.)

Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a
`git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it
back again.

There's two tests that create a commit signature, but never make any use
of it. Let's remove these to avoid any confusion.

<title>reflog: allow adding entries with newlines in their message</title>

Currently, the reflog disallows any entries that have a message with
newlines, as that would effectively break the reflog format, which may
contain a single line per entry, only. Upstream git behaves a bit
differently, though, especially when considering stashes: instead of
rejecting any reflog entry with newlines, git will simply replace
newlines with spaces. E.g. executing 'git stash push -m "foo\nbar"' will
create a reflog entry with "foo bar" as entry message.

This commit adjusts our own logic to stop rejecting commit messages with
newlines. Previously, this logic was part of `git_reflog_append`, only.
There is a second place though where we add reflog entries, which is the
serialization code in the filesystem refdb. As it didn't contain any
sanity checks whatsoever, the refdb would have been perfectly happy to
write malformatted reflog entries to the disk. This is being fixed with
the same logic as for the reflog itself.

<title>fileops: rename to "futils.h" to match function signatures</title>

Our file utils functions all have a "futils" prefix, e.g.
`git_futils_touch`. One would thus naturally guess that their
definitions and implementation would live in files "futils.h" and
"futils.c", respectively, but in fact they live in "fileops.h".

Rename the files to match expectations.
