This adds new smudge-to-file and clean-from-file filter commands, which are similar to smudge and clean but allow direct access to files on disk.
In smudge-to-file and clean-from-file, "%p" is expanded to the path to the file that should be cleaned from, or smudged to. This interface can be much more efficient when operating on large files, because the whole file content does not need to be streamed through the filter. It even allows for things like clean-from-file commands that avoid reading the whole content of the file, and for smudge-to-file commands that populate a work tree file using an efficient Copy On Write operation. The new filter commands will not be used for all filtering. They are efficient to use when git add is adding a file, or when the work tree is being updated, but not a good fit when git is internally filtering blob objects in memory for eg, a diff. So, a user who wants to use smudge-to-file should also provide a smudge command to be used in cases where smudge-to-file is not used. And ditto with clean-from-file and clean. To avoid foot-shooting configurations, the new commands are not used unless the old commands are also configured. That also ensures that a filter driver configuration that includes these new commands will work, although less efficiently, when used with an older version of git that does not support them.
