Commit f0cbe742f4 (blame: add a test to cover blame_coalesce(),
2019-06-20) added a test case where blame can usefully coalesce two
groups of lines. But since it relies on the normal blame output, it only
exercises the code and can't tell whether the lines were actually
joined into a single group.

However, by using --porcelain output, we can see how git-blame considers
the groupings (and likewise how the coalescing might have a real
user-visible impact for a tool that uses the porcelain-output
groupings). This lets us confirm that we are indeed coalescing correctly
(and the fact that this test case requires coalescing can be verified by
dropping the call to blame_coalesce(), causing the test to fail).

It has become a bit harder to grok, but for the purpose of the later
steps to see where things exactly came from (including their line
numbers), it is easier to see what is going on with the new format.

The original forced the abbrev length; by switching to the format
for porcelain-writers, we know we will get the full object name.  OK.

Yeah, I agree the numbers are a bit more inscrutable. We could do
something like:

diff --git a/t/t8003-blame-corner-cases.sh b/t/t8003-blame-corner-cases.sh
index ba8013b002..9486888e5a 100755

 	test_cmp expect actual
 '

but IMHO that isn't much more readable (largely due to the
tab-handling in the here-doc).
