trailer: append trailers in-process and drop the fork to interpret-trailers

All trailer insertion now funnels through trailer_process():

* builtin/interpret-trailers.c is reduced to file I/O + a single call.
* amend_file_with_trailers() shares the same path; the old
  amend_strbuf_with_trailers() helper is dropped.
* New helpers parse_trailer_args()/free_new_trailer_list() convert
  --trailer=... strings to new_trailer_item lists.

Behaviour is unchanged; the full test-suite still passes, and the
fork/exec is gone.
