[scm] Include untracked files in analysis

It's more user-friendly to consider untracked files in analysis so that
users can get feedback on new files without needing to stage them first.
It's especially important for `shac check` to run untracked `shac.star`
files, otherwise people get confusing "no shac.star files found" errors
when adding a shac.star file to a repo, until they `git add` it.

The existence of untracked files does not affect the choice of which
commit to use as the "upstream", to accomodate users who tend to keep
untracked files sitting around. It's okay to include those files in the
analysis, but the existence of those files shouldn't prevent other files
from being analyzed.

Road map

Planned features/changes, in descending order by priority:

  • [x] Configuring files to exclude from shac analysis in shac.textproto
  • [x] Include unstaged files in analysis, including respecting unstaged shac.star files
  • [ ] Automatic fix application with handling for conflicting suggestions
  • [ ] Provide a .shac cache directory that checks can write to
  • [ ] Mount checkout directory read-only
    • [x] By default
    • [ ] Unconditionally
  • [ ] Give checks access to the commit message via ctx.scm
  • [ ] Built-in formatting of Starlark files
  • [ ] Configurable “pass-throughs” - non-default environment variables and mounts that can optionally be passed through to the sandbox
  • [ ] Add glob arguments to ctx.scm.{all,affected}_files() functions for easier filtering
  • [ ] Filesystem sandboxing on MacOS
  • [ ] Windows sandboxing
  • [ ] Testing framework for checks
