Cover letter [PATCH v3 0/2] add -p: a couple of hunk splitting fixes

Thanks to Junio for his comments on V2. I have removed the dependency on WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES in favor of "lets change it and see if anyone screams"

Changes since V2: Remove dependency on WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES and change the behavior unconditionally. This takes us back to V1 with (hopefully) better commit messages and a style fix in the tests.

V2 Cover Letter: Thanks to Justin and Junio for their comments in V1. Sorry for the long delay in re-rolling - I thought I'd sent these ages ago and then discovered that they weren't upstream and realized I had not, in fact, sent them after-all.

Changes since V1:

* Patch 1: The new hunks created by splitting a hunk are now only marked as "undecided" when WITH_BREAKING_CHANGES is enabled.

* Patch 2: Reworded commit message and added a space before a redirection in the test

V1 Cover Letter:

This series fixes a couple of infelicities when splitting hunks that have already been selected or edited which I noticed a while ago when preparing the test for 'pw/add-patch-with-suppress-blank-empty'.

          the split hunks they will now have to do more work re-selecting the

     -@@ Documentation/BreakingChanges.adoc: A prerequisite for this change is that the ecosystem is ready to support the
     - "reftable" format. Most importantly, alternative implementations of Git like
     - JGit, libgit2 and Gitoxide need to support it.

     -+* The behavior of "git add -p" has been changed so that splitting a
     -+  hunk that has already been marked as selected or unselected will now

     -+  split instead of them inheriting their state from the original hunk.
