Colin Young 3149fa4b99 Terminate timed-out Git process trees (#36793)
## Why

Timing out a Git metadata command must not leave helper processes running after
the command wrapper exits.

## What changed

- Run Git metadata commands in a dedicated process group on Unix and a Job
  Object on Windows so timeout cleanup terminates their full process trees.
- Start Windows commands suspended, assign them to the Job Object, and then
  resume them so immediate descendants cannot escape containment.
- Preserve descendants when a Git command completes normally, and retain the
  existing direct-spawn fallback if Windows Job Object setup fails.

## Testing

Added cross-platform regression tests for cleanup both while the command wrapper
is running and after it exits, plus Windows coverage for immediate-child Job
Object containment.

codex-git-utils

Helpers for interacting with git, including patch application. The crate also exposes a lightweight baseline API for internal directories that use git only as a resettable diff mechanism: ensure_git_baseline_repository preserves a usable root/.git baseline or creates one when it is missing or unusable, reset_git_repository replaces root/.git with a fresh one-commit baseline, and diff_since_latest_init returns structured file changes plus a unified diff from that baseline to the current directory contents.

use std::path::Path;

use codex_git_utils::{apply_git_patch, ApplyGitRequest};

let repo = Path::new("/path/to/repo");

// Apply a patch (omitted here) to the repository.
let request = ApplyGitRequest {
    cwd: repo.to_path_buf(),
    diff: String::from("...diff contents..."),
    revert: false,
    preflight: false,
};
let result = apply_git_patch(&request)?;
