v2 (changes since v1):

 * Convert Thanks-to trailer to Helped-by
 * Rewrite several commit titles and messages
 * Unify error reporting between clone.c and remote.c
 * Add tests for git remote add and git remote rename with invalid remote
   names
 * Prevent leak of old remote_name

v1: Took another pass at supporting a configurable default for-o/--origin,
this time following Junio's suggestions from a previous approach as much as
possible [1]. Unfortunately, Johannes mentioned that --template can write
new config values that aren't automatically merged without re-calling 
git_config. There doesn't appear to be a way around this without rewriting
significant amounts of init and config logic across the codebase.

While this could have been v2 of the original patchset, it's diverged so
drastically from the original that it likely warrants its own root thread.
If that's not appropriate though, I'd be happy to restructure!

Thanks for all the advice Junio and Johannes! This feels significantly
better than my first attempt.

     -    clone: call git_config before parse_options
     +    clone: use more conventional config/option layering
      
     -    While Junio's request [1] was to avoids the unusual  "write config then
     -    immediately read it" pattern that exists in `cmd_clone`, Johannes
     -    mentioned that --template can write new config values that aren't
     -    automatically included in the environment [2]. This requires a config
     -    re-read after `init_db` is called.
     -
     -    Moving the initial config up does allow settings from config to be
     -    overwritten by ones provided via CLI options in a more natural way
     -    though, so that part of Junio's suggestion remains.

     +    Parsing command-line options before reading from config required careful
     +    handling to ensure CLI options were treated with higher priority.  Read
     +    config first to let parsed CLI naively overwrite matching config values.

     -    clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin`
     +    clone: read new remote name from remote_name instead of option_origin
      
     -    While the default remote name of "origin" can be changed at clone-time
     -    with `git clone`'s `--origin` option, it was previously not possible
     -    to specify a default value for the name of that remote.  This commit
     -    adds support for a new `clone.defaultRemoteName` config.
     -
     -    It's resolved in the expected priority order:
     -
     -    1. (Highest priority) A remote name passed directly to `git clone -o`
     -    2. A `clone.defaultRemoteName=new_name` in config `git clone -c`
     -    3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in `/path/to/template/config`,
     -       where `--template=/path/to/template` is provided
     -    3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in a non-template config file
     -    4. The default value of `origin`
     +    In a future patch, the name of the remote created by `git clone` may
     +    come from multiple sources.  To avoid confusion, convert most uses of
     +    option_origin to remote_name, leaving option_origin to exclusively
     +    represent the -o/--origin option.

       ## Commit message ##
     -    clone: validate --origin option before use
     -
     -    Providing a bad origin name to `git clone` currently reports an
     -    'invalid refspec' error instead of a more explicit message explaining
     -    that the `--origin` option was malformed.  Per Junio, it's been this way
     -    since 8434c2f1 (Build in clone, 2008-04-27).  This patch reintroduces
     -    validation for the provided `--origin` option, but notably _doesn't_
     -    include a multi-level check (e.g. "foo/bar") that was present in the
     -    original `git-clone.sh`.  It seems `git remote` allows multi-level
     -    remote names, so applying that same validation in `git clone` seems
     -    reasonable.
     +    clone: allow configurable default for `-o`/`--origin`
      
     +    While the default remote name of "origin" can be changed at clone-time
     +    with `git clone`'s `--origin` option, it was previously not possible
     +    to specify a default value for the name of that remote.  Add support for
     +    a new `clone.defaultRemoteName` config, with the newly-created remote
     +    name resolved in priority order:
     +
     +    1. (Highest priority) A remote name passed directly to `git clone -o`
     +    2. A `clone.defaultRemoteName=new_name` in config `git clone -c`
     +    3. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in `/path/to/template/config`,
     +       where `--template=/path/to/template` is provided
     +    4. A `clone.defaultRemoteName` value set in a non-template config file
     +    5. The default value of `origin`
