Travis: also test on 32-bit Linux

dscho · gitster · commit 88dedd5e72c0 · 2017-03-06T11:19:09.000-08:00
When Git v2.9.1 was released, it had a bug that showed only on Windows
and on 32-bit systems: our assumption that `unsigned long` can hold
64-bit values turned out to be wrong.

This could have been caught earlier if we had a Continuous Testing
set up that includes a build and test run on 32-bit Linux.

Let's do this (and take care of the Windows build later). This patch
asks Travis CI to install a Docker image with 32-bit libraries and then
goes on to build and test Git using this 32-bit setup.
