Fixed git status retrieval splitting entries
Summary:
Sometimes, for large repositories the status is messed up (which in unlucky case causes `Commit..` command to disappear).
The reason for this is that `FileViewGitPlugin::beginRetrieval` method cannot correctly parse the `git status` output. The reason for this is that `FileViewGitPlugin::readUntilZeroChar` does not return complete entry, because it is not provided fast enough.
The idea of this patch is to allow the `FileViewGitPlugin::readUntilZeroChar` to wait for the remaining data.
Test Plan:
The bug depends on the race condition between the plugin code and executed `git` code. Hence it is hard to test. To fake the issue make fake git process that pauses mid entry. In such case the loop in `FileViewGitPlugin::beginRetrieval` should parse eg:
!! ABCDEFGH\0x00
Instead it gets:
!! AB\0x00
CDEFGH\0x00
which results in two entries for non-existent files.
The patch solves this issue.

The reason tho this is that `FileViewGitPlugin::beginRetrieval` method cannot correctly parse the `git status` output.
