With 31c8221a (mktree: validate entry type in input, 2009-05-14), we
called the sha1_object_info() API to obtain the type information, but
allowed the call to silently fail when the object was missing locally,
so that we can sanity-check the types opportunistically when the
object did exist.

The implementation is understandable because back then there was no
lazy/on-demand downloading of individual objects from the promisor
remotes that causes a long delay and materializes the object, hence
defeating the point of using "--missing".  The design is hurting us
now.

We could bypass the opportunistic type/mode consistency check
altogether when "--missing" is given, but instead, use the
oid_object_info_extended() API and tell it that we are only interested
in objects that locally exist and are immediately available by passing
OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT bit to it.  That way, we will still
retain the cheap and opportunistic sanity check for local objects.

Object-file API shuffling.

* ab/object-file-api-updates:
  object-file API: pass an enum to read_object_with_reference()
  object-file.c: add a literal version of write_object_file_prepare()
  object-file API: have hash_object_file() take "enum object_type"
  object API: rename hash_object_file_literally() to write_*()
  object-file API: split up and simplify check_object_signature()
  object API users + docs: check <0, not !0 with check_object_signature()
  object API docs: move check_object_signature() docs to cache.h
  object API: correct "buf" v.s. "map" mismatch in *.c and *.h
  object-file API: have write_object_file() take "enum object_type"
  object-file API: add a format_object_header() function
  object-file API: return "void", not "int" from hash_object_file()
  object-file.c: split up declaration of unrelated variables

Change the write_object_file() function to take an "enum object_type"
instead of a "const char *type". Its callers either passed
{commit,tree,blob,tag}_type and can pass the corresponding OBJ_* type
instead, or were hardcoding strings like "blob".

This avoids the back & forth fragility where the callers of
write_object_file() would have the enum type, and convert it
themselves via type_name(). We do have to now do that conversion
ourselves before calling write_object_file_prepare(), but those
codepaths will be similarly adjusted in subsequent commits.

Change various cmd_* functions that claim to return an "int" to use
"return" instead of exit() to indicate an exit code. These were not
marked with NORETURN, and by directly exit()-ing we'll skip the
cleanup git.c would otherwise do (e.g. closing fd's, erroring if we
can't). See run_builtin() in git.c.

In the case of shell.c and sh-i18n--envsubst.c this was the result of
an incomplete migration to using a cmd_main() in 3f2e2297b9 (add an
extra level of indirection to main(), 2016-07-01).

This was spotted by SunCC 12.5 on Solaris 10 (gcc210 on the gccfarm).

The mktree_line() function does not actually look at the "len" parameter
it is passed, and assumes the buffer it receives is NUL-terminated.
Since the caller always passes a strbuf, this will be true. Let's drop
the useless parameter.

Instead of using a hard-coded constant for the size of a hex object ID,
switch to use the computed pointer from parse_oid_hex that points after
the parsed object ID.

This should make these functions easier to find and cache.h less
overwhelming to read.

In particular, this moves:
- read_object_file
- oid_object_info
- write_object_file

As a result, most of the codebase needs to #include object-store.h.
In this patch the #include is only added to files that would fail to
compile otherwise.  It would be better to #include wherever
identifiers from the header are used.  That can happen later
when we have better tooling for it.

Add a repository argument to allow the callers of oid_object_info
to be more specific about which repository to handle. This is a small
mechanical change; it doesn't change the implementation to handle
repositories other than the_repository yet.

As with the previous commits, use a macro to catch callers passing a
repository other than the_repository at compile time.
