This patch introduces a strict mode, which ensures that:
- no malformed object will be written
- no object with broken links will be written
The patch ensures this by delaying the write of all non blob object.
These object are written, after all objects they link to are written.
An error can only result in unreferenced objects.

Preventing objects with broken links entering the repository
means, that write of some objects must be delayed.
This patch adds a cache to keep the object data in memory. The delta
resolving code must also search in the cache.

Since it is now OK to pass a null pointer to display_progress() and
stop_progress() resulting in a no-op, then we can simplify the code
and remove a bunch of lines by not making those calls conditional all
the time.

This allows for better management of progress "object" existence,
as well as making the progress display implementation more independent

Instead of having this code duplicated in multiple places, let's have
a common interface for progress display. If someday someone wishes to
display a cheezy progress bar instead then only one file will have to
be changed.
Note: I left merge-recursive.c out since it has a strange notion of
progress as it apparently increase the expected total number as it goes.
Someone with more intimate knowledge of what that is supposed to mean
might look at converting it to the common progress interface.

Change a few size and offset variables to more appropriate type, then
add overflow tests on those offsets. This prevents any bad data to be
generated/processed if off_t happens to not be large enough to handle
some big packs.

This patch introduces the MSB() macro to obtain the desired number of
most significant bits from a given variable independently of the variable
type.
It is then used to better implement the overflow test on the OBJ_OFS_DELTA
base offset variable with the property of always working correctly
regardless of the type/size of that variable.

We currently have two parallel notation for dealing with object types
in the code: a string and a numerical value. One of them is obviously
redundent, and the most used one requires more stack space and a bunch
of strcmp() all over the place.
This is an initial step for the removal of the version using a char array
found in object reading code paths. The patch is unfortunately large but
there is no sane way to split it in smaller parts without breaking the
system.

This mechanically converts strncmp() to use prefixcmp(), but only when
the parameters match specific patterns, so that they can be verified
easily. Leftover from this will be fixed in a separate step, including
idiotic conversions like
if (!strncmp("foo", arg, 3))
=>
if (!(-prefixcmp(arg, "foo")))
This was done by using this script in px.perl
#!/usr/bin/perl -i.bak -p
if (/strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)/ && (length($2) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\(([^,]+), "([^\\"]*)", (\d+)\)|prefixcmp($1, "$2")|;
}
if (/strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)/ && (length($1) == $3)) {
s|strncmp\("([^\\"]*)", ([^,]+), (\d+)\)|(-prefixcmp($2, "$1"))|;
}
and running:
$ git grep -l strncmp -- '*.c' | xargs perl px.perl

This is a mechanical clean-up of the way *.c files include
system header files.
(1) sources under compat/, platform sha-1 implementations, and
xdelta code are exempt from the following rules;
(2) the first #include must be "git-compat-util.h" or one of
our own header file that includes it first (e.g. config.h,
builtin.h, pkt-line.h);
(3) system headers that are included in "git-compat-util.h"
need not be included in individual C source files.
(4) "git-compat-util.h" does not have to include subsystem
specific header files (e.g. expat.h).

Some applications which invoke unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin
may want to examine the pack header to determine the number of
objects contained in the pack and use that value to determine which
executable to invoke to handle the rest of the pack stream.
However if the caller consumes the pack header from the input stream
then its no longer available for unpack-objects or index-pack --stdin,
both of which need the version and object count to process the stream.
This change introduces --pack_header=ver,cnt as a command line option
that the caller can supply to indicate it has already consumed the
pack header and what version and object count were found in that
header. As this option is only meant for low level applications
such as receive-pack we are not documenting it at this time.

For delta resolution to be possible, a list of sha1/offset tuple must

This adds a new object, namely OBJ_OFS_DELTA, renames OBJ_DELTA to
OBJ_REF_DELTA to better make the distinction between those two delta
objects, and adds support for the handling of those new delta objects
in sha1_file.c only.
The OBJ_OFS_DELTA contains a relative offset from the delta object's
position in a pack instead of the 20-byte SHA1 reference to identify
the base object. Since the base is likely to be not so far away, the
relative offset is more likely to have a smaller encoding on average
than an absolute offset. And for those delta objects the base must
always be stored first because there is no way to know the distance of
later objects when streaming a pack. Hence this relative offset is
always meant to be negative.
The offset encoding is slightly denser than the one used for object
size -- credits to <linux@horizon.com> (whoever this is) for bringing
it to my attention.
This allows for pack size reduction between 3.2% (Linux-2.6) to over 5%
(linux-historic). Runtime pack access should be faster too since delta
replay does skip a search in the pack index for each delta in a chain.

The code called this operation "desperate" but the option flag is -r
and the word "recover" describes what it does better.

The command unpack-objects dies upon the first error. This is
probably considered a feature -- if a pack is corrupt, instead
of trying to extract from it and possibly risking to contaminate
a good repository with objects whose validity is dubious, we
should seek a good copy of the pack and retry. However, we may
not have any good copy anywhere. This implements the last
resort effort to extract what are salvageable from such a
corrupt pack.
This flag might have helped Sergio when recovering from a
corrupt pack. In my test, it managed to salvage 247 objects out
of a pack that had 251 objects but without it the command
stopped after extracting 73 objects.

This abstracts away the size of the hash values when copying them
from memory location to memory location, much as the introduction
of hashcmp abstracted away hash value comparsion.
A few call sites were using char* rather than unsigned char* so
I added the cast rather than open hashcpy to be void*. This is a
reasonable tradeoff as most call sites already use unsigned char*
and the existing hashcmp is also declared to be unsigned char*.
[jc: Splitted the patch to "master" part, to be followed by a
patch for merge-recursive.c which is not in "master" yet.
Fixed the cast in the latter hunk to combine-diff.c which was
wrong in the original.
Also converted ones left-over in combine-diff.c, diff-lib.c and
upload-pack.c ]
