Staging/unstaging/reverting (parts of) the current buffer's file can
be a common use case.
Today "git apply" can do that based on a selection within a diff.
When the selection is on uncommitted content, we can probably assume
that the intent is to use the part of the selection that overlaps
with the +-side of "git diff" (or "git diff --cached" for
"git apply --cached").
Make "git apply" treat selections as content if the buffile is
tracked by Git. This differentiator is not perfect but I don't know
why anyone would want to use the existing "git apply" semantics on
a tracked file. Maybe we should pick a different name.
This feature couples well with "git show-diff", which shows all
lines with unstaged changes (in future it should probably show staged
changes as well).
Whereas on diffs, "git apply" stages the entire hunk if the selection
contains no newline, this does not happen when operating on content.
I didn't yet try implementing that. I guess the hunks are not as
explicit here.
Closes #5225

We pipe the output of the patch program to stderr (to have it show
up in *debug*) and print to stdout the remaining diff (the part of
the diff that was not passed to patch).
The next patch wants to use this script in a different way, so move
these decisions up.

Patches as produced by "git format-patch" have a trailing signature
that is separated from the body by a line with "-- " on it. By default
it contains the Git version. We erroneously include this signature
in the diff we pipe to patch, which fails to apply as a result.
Add a targeted fix to suppress these signatures.

Since :patch transforms its inputs into context-only lines, we can
easily get into a state where a file diff has only context lines.
git apply does not accept a "diff" without any hunk, so let's skip
that.

One of the features I miss most from Magit/Fugitive/Tig is to
apply/revert/stage/unstage individual hunks or even exactly the
selected line(s). This provides a much more convenient way of
splitting changes than "git add/restore -p".
Implement a "patch" command that applies the selected lines within
a diff by piping them to the "patch" program.
It can also feed other programs like "git apply" (see the next commit).

Interestingly, :patch is defined outside the "patch" module. This is
to make it readily available for interactive use.
Putting it into the module does not save any work.
I tentatively added a patch module anyway so we can explicitly declare
this dependency.. although there is the argument that this is not
really needed?
