When we consider if a path has been totally rewritten, we did not
touch changes from symlinks to files or vice versa. But a change
that modifies even the type of a blob surely should count as a
complete rewrite.
While we are at it, modernise diffcore-break to be aware of gitlinks (we
do not want to touch them).

The function mark_tree_uninteresting() assumed that the tree entries
are blob when they are not trees. This is not so. Since we do
not traverse into submodules (yet), the gitlinks should be ignored.
In general, we should try to start moving away from using the
"S_ISLNK()" like things for internal git state. It was a mistake to
just assume the numbers all were same across all systems in the first
place. This implementation converts to the "object_type", and then
uses a case statement.
Noticed by Ilari on IRC.

Luiz Fernando N. Capitulino noticed the one in tree-walk.h where
we cast away constness while computing the legnth of a tree
entry.

When 4651ece8 made the function a "static inline", it should
have removd the stale prototype but everybody missed that.
Thomas Glanzmann noticed this broke compilation with Forte12
compiler on his Sun boxes.

This makes the tree descriptor contain a "struct name_entry" as part of
it, and it gets filled in so that it always contains a valid entry. On
some benchmarks, it improves performance by up to 15%.
That makes tree entry "extract" trivial, and means that we only actually
need to decode each tree entry just once: we decode the first one when
we initialize the tree descriptor, and each subsequent one when doing
"update_tree_entry()". In particular, this means that we don't need to
do strlen() both at extract time _and_ at update time.
Finally, it also allows more sharing of code (entry_extract(), that
wanted a "struct name_entry", just got totally trivial, along with the
"tree_entry()" function).

This removes slightly more lines than it adds, but the real reason for
doing this is that future optimizations will require more setup of the
tree descriptor, and so we want to do it in one place.
Also renamed the "desc.buf" field to "desc.buffer" just to trigger
compiler errors for old-style manual initializations, making sure I
didn't miss anything.

Since we have the "tree_entry_len()" helper function these days, and
don't need to do a full strlen(), there's no point in saving the path
length - it's just redundant information.

This is a micro-optimization that grew out of the mailing list discussion
about "strlen()" showing up in profiles.
We used to pass regular C strings around to the low-level tree walking
routines, and while this worked fine, it meant that we needed to call
strlen() on strings that the caller always actually knew the size of
anyway.
So pass the length of the string down wih the string, and avoid
unnecessary calls to strlen(). Also, when extracting a pathname from a
tree entry, use "tree_entry_len()" instead of strlen(), since the length
of the pathname is directly calculable from the decoded tree entry itself
without having to actually do another strlen().
This shaves off another ~5-10% from some loads that are very tree
intensive (notably doing commit filtering by a pathspec).

This adds a "tree_entry()" function that combines the common operation of
doing a "tree_entry_extract()" + "update_tree_entry()".
It also has a simplified calling convention, designed for simple loops
that traverse over a whole tree: the arguments are pointers to the tree
descriptor and a name_entry structure to fill in, and it returns a boolean
"true" if there was an entry left to be gotten in the tree.
This allows tree traversal with
struct tree_desc desc;
struct name_entry entry;
desc.buf = tree->buffer;
desc.size = tree->size;
while (tree_entry(&desc, &entry) {
... use "entry.{path, sha1, mode, pathlen}" ...
}
which is not only shorter than writing it out in full, it's hopefully less
error prone too.
[ It's actually a tad faster too - we don't need to recalculate the entry
pathlength in both extract and update, but need to do it only once.
Also, some callers can avoid doing a "strlen()" on the result, since
it's returned as part of the name_entry structure.
However, by now we're talking just 1% speedup on "git-rev-list --objects
--all", and we're definitely at the point where tree walking is no
longer the issue any more. ]
NOTE! Not everybody wants to use this new helper function, since some of
the tree walkers very much on purpose do the descriptor update separately
from the entry extraction. So the "extract + update" sequence still
remains as the core sequence, this is just a simplified interface.
We should probably add a silly two-line inline helper function for
initializing the descriptor from the "struct tree" too, just to cut down
on the noise from that common "desc" initializer.

Introduce tree-walk.[ch] and move "struct tree_desc" and
associated functions from various places.
Rename DIFF_FILE_CANON_MODE(mode) macro to canon_mode(mode) and
move it to cache.h. This macro returns the canonicalized
st_mode value in the host byte order for files, symlinks and
directories -- to be compared with a tree_desc entry.
create_ce_mode(mode) in cache.h is similar but is intended to be
used for index entries (so it does not work for directories) and
returns the value in the network byte order.
