* ks/p4-view-spec:
  git p4: implement view spec wildcards with "p4 where"
  git p4 test: sanitize P4CHARSET

"git p4" does not support many of the view wildcards, such as * and
%%n.  It only knows the common ... mapping, and exclusions.

Redo the entire wildcard code around the idea of directly querying
the p4 server for the mapping.  For each commit, invoke "p4 where"
with committed file paths as args and use the client mapping to
decide where the file goes in git.

This simplifies a lot of code, and adds support for all wildcards
supported by p4.  Downside is that there is probably a 20%-ish
slowdown with this approach.

Symlink contents in p4 print sometimes have a trailing
new line character, but sometimes it doesn't. git-p4
should only remove the last character if that character
is '\n'.

The generic chdir() helper sets the PWD environment
variable, as that is what is used by p4 to know its
current working directory.  Normally the shell would
do this, but in git-p4, we must do it by hand.

However, when the path contains a symbolic link,
os.getcwd() will return the physical location.  If the
p4 client specification includes symlinks, setting PWD
to the physical location causes p4 to think it is not
inside the client workspace.  It complains, e.g.

    Path /vol/bar/projects/foo/... is not under client root /p/foo

One workaround is to use AltRoots in the p4 client specification,
but it is cleaner to handle it directly in git-p4.

Other uses of chdir still require setting PWD to an
absolute path so p4 features like P4CONFIG work.  See
bf1d68f (git-p4: use absolute directory for PWD env
var, 2011-12-09).

With small updates to remove dependency on newer features of
Python, keep git-p4 usable with older Python.

* bc/git-p4-for-python-2.4:
  INSTALL: git-p4 does not support Python 3
  git-p4.py: support Python 2.4
  git-p4.py: support Python 2.5

Make the intent of "--bool" more obvious by returning a direct True
or False value.  Convert a couple non-bool users with obvious bool
intent.
