The prefix length is passed from one command to another via the new
magic 'prefix'. The magic is for parse_pathspec's internal use only,
not visible to parse_pathspec's callers.

Prefix length is not preserved across commands when --literal-pathspecs
is specified (no magic is allowed, including 'prefix'). That's OK
because we know all paths are literal. No magic, no special treatment
regarding prefix. (This may be no longer true if we make :(glob)
default)

Other options to preserve the prefix include saving it to env variable
or quoting. Env var way (at least _one_ env var) is not suitable
because the prefix is not the same for all pathspecs. Pathspecs
starting with "../" will eat into the prefix part.

We could also preserve 'prefix' across commands by quoting the prefix
part, then dequoting on receiving. But it may not be 100% accurate, we
may dequote longer than the original prefix part, for example. That
may be good or not, but it's not the purpose.
