versioncmp: cope with common part overlapping with prerelease suffix
Version sort with prerelease reordering sometimes puts tagnames in the wrong order, when the common part of two compared tagnames overlaps with the leading character(s) of one or more configured prerelease suffixes. Note the position of "v2.1.0-beta-1": $ git -c versionsort.prereleaseSuffix=-beta \ tag -l --sort=version:refname v2.1.* v2.1.0-beta-2 v2.1.0-beta-3 v2.1.0 v2.1.0-RC1 v2.1.0-RC2 v2.1.0-beta-1 v2.1.1 v2.1.2 The reason is that when comparing a pair of tagnames, first versioncmp() looks for the first different character in a pair of tagnames, and then the swap_prereleases() helper function looks for a configured prerelease suffix _starting at_ that character. Thus, when in the above example the sorting algorithm happens to compare the tagnames "v2.1.0-beta-1" and "v2.1.0-RC2", swap_prereleases() tries to match the suffix "-beta" against "beta-1" to no avail, and the two tagnames erroneously end up being ordered lexicographically. To fix this issue change swap_prereleases() to look for configured prerelease suffixes _containing_ the position of that first different character. Care must be taken, when a configured suffix is longer than the tagnames' common part up to the first different character, to avoid reading memory before the beginning of the tagnames. Add a test that uses an exceptionally long prerelease suffix to check for this, in the hope that in case of a regression the illegal memory access causes a segfault in 'git tag' on one of the commonly used platforms (the test happens to pass successfully on my Linux system with the safety check removed), or at least makes valgrind complain. Under some circumstances it's possible that more than one prerelease suffixes can be found in the same tagname around that first different character. With this simple bugfix patch such a tagname is sorted according to the contained suffix that comes first in the configuration for now. This is less than ideal in some cases, and the following patch will take care of those.
