[10/11] merge-ort: write $GIT_DIR/AUTO_MERGE whenever we hit a conflict

There are a variety of questions users might ask while resolving
conflicts:
  * What changes have been made since the previous (first) parent?
  * What changes are staged?
  * What is still unstaged? (or what is still conflicted?)
  * What changes did I make to resolve conflicts so far?
The first three of these have simple answers:
  * git diff HEAD
  * git diff --cached
  * git diff
There was no way to answer the final question previously.  Adding one
is trivial in merge-ort, since it works by creating a tree representing
what should be written to the working copy complete with conflict
markers.  Simply write that tree to .git/AUTO_MERGE, allowing users to
answer the fourth question with
  * git diff AUTO_MERGE

I avoided using a name like "MERGE_AUTO", because that would be
merge-specific (much like MERGE_HEAD, REBASE_HEAD, REVERT_HEAD,
CHERRY_PICK_HEAD) and I wanted a name that didn't change depending on
which type of operation the merge was part of.

Ensure that paths which clean out other temporary operation-specific
files (e.g. CHERRY_PICK_HEAD, MERGE_MSG, rebase-merge/ state directory)
also clean out this AUTO_MERGE file.

That's a really cool feature. I'm starting to like this "ort" thing :)

(After knowing almost nothing about it until a few days ago...)

This isn't a new problem since you're just folling an existing pattern,
but here you (rightly) do xopen()< and the:n

Shouldn't this & the rest ideally be at least unlink_or_warn()?

Looks like your comment got garbled/truncated.  Do you remember the

Perhaps, but I think that should be a follow-on series or
#leftoverbits.  I'm having enough trouble getting reviews (I think I'm
burning Stolee out after the last half year) without making my series
longer for tangential cleanups.  :-)

I'm starting to worry that despite having all the remaining patches
ready (and most have been ready for months), that we won't be able to
get merge-ort done before git-2.32 -- the -rc0 for it is now just
under three months away.
