libgit2 has two distinct requirements that were previously solved by
`git_buf`.  We require:

1. A general purpose string class that provides a number of utility APIs
   for manipulating data (eg, concatenating, truncating, etc).
2. A structure that we can use to return strings to callers that they
   can take ownership of.

By using a single class (`git_buf`) for both of these purposes, we have
confused the API to the point that refactorings are difficult and
reasoning about correctness is also difficult.

Move the utility class `git_buf` to be called `git_str`: this represents
its general purpose, as an internal string buffer class.  The name also
is an homage to Junio Hamano ("gitstr").

The public API remains `git_buf`, and has a much smaller footprint.  It
is generally only used as an "out" param with strict requirements that
follow the documentation.  (Exceptions exist for some legacy APIs to
avoid breaking callers unnecessarily.)

Utility functions exist to convert a user-specified `git_buf` to a
`git_str` so that we can call internal functions, then converting it
back again.

Separate the concerns of the hash functions from the git_oid functions.
The git_oid structure will need to understand either SHA1 or SHA256; the
hash functions should only deal with the appropriate one of these.

The `git_buf_text` namespace is unnecessary and strange.  Remove it,
just keep the functions prefixed with `git_buf`.

We _dispose_ the contents of objects; we _free_ objects (and their
contents).  Update `git_strarray_free` to be `git_strarray_dispose`.
`git_strarray_free` remains as a deprecated proxy function.

<title>tests: object: decrease number of concurrent cache accesses</title>

In our test case object::cache::fast_thread_rush, we're creating 100
concurrent threads opening a repository and reading objects from it.
This test actually fails on ARM32 with an out-of-memory error, which
isn't entirely unexpected.

Work around the issue by halving the number of threads.
