Teach rev-list to support termination of an object traversal at any
object from a promisor remote (whether one that the local repo also has,
or one that the local repo knows about because it has another promisor
object that references it).
This will be used subsequently in gc and in the connectivity check used
by fetch.
For efficiency, if an object is referenced by a promisor object, and is
in the local repo only as a non-promisor object, object traversal will
not stop there. This is to avoid building the list of promisor object
references.
(In list-objects.c, the case where obj is NULL in process_blob() and
process_tree() do not need to be changed because those happen only when
there is a conflict between the expected type and the existing object.
If the object doesn't exist, an object will be synthesized, which is
fine.)

Teach sha1_file to fetch objects from the remote configured in
extensions.partialclone whenever an object is requested but missing.
The fetching of objects can be suppressed through a global variable.
This is used by fsck and index-pack.
However, by default, such fetching is not suppressed. This is meant as a
temporary measure to ensure that all Git commands work in such a
situation. Future patches will update some commands to either tolerate
missing objects (without fetching them) or be more efficient in fetching
them.
In order to determine the code changes in sha1_file.c necessary, I
investigated the following:
(1) functions in sha1_file.c that take in a hash, without the user
regarding how the object is stored (loose or packed)
(2) functions in packfile.c (because I need to check callers that know
about the loose/packed distinction and operate on both differently,
and ensure that they can handle the concept of objects that are
neither loose nor packed)
(1) is handled by the modification to sha1_object_info_extended().
For (2), I looked at for_each_packed_object and others. For
for_each_packed_object, the callers either already work or are fixed in
this patch:
- reachable - only to find recent objects
- builtin/fsck - already knows about missing objects
- builtin/cat-file - warning message added in this commit
Callers of the other functions do not need to be changed:
- parse_pack_index
- http - indirectly from http_get_info_packs
- find_pack_entry_one
- this searches a single pack that is provided as an argument; the
caller already knows (through other means) that the sought object
is in a specific pack
- find_sha1_pack
- fast-import - appears to be an optimization to not store a file if
it is already in a pack
- http-walker - to search through a struct alt_base
- http-push - to search through remote packs
- has_sha1_pack
- builtin/fsck - already knows about promisor objects
- builtin/count-objects - informational purposes only (check if loose
object is also packed)
- builtin/prune-packed - check if object to be pruned is packed (if
not, don't prune it)
- revision - used to exclude packed objects if requested by user
- diff - just for optimization

Introduce fetch-object, providing the ability to fetch one object from a
promisor remote.
This uses fetch-pack. To do this, the transport mechanism has been
updated with 2 flags, "from-promisor" to indicate that the resulting
pack comes from a promisor remote (and thus should be annotated as such
by index-pack), and "no-dependents" to indicate that only the objects
themselves need to be fetched (but fetching additional objects is
nevertheless safe).
Whenever "no-dependents" is used, fetch-pack will refrain from using any
object flags, because it is most likely invoked as part of a dynamic
object fetch by another Git command (which may itself use object flags).
An alternative to this is to leave fetch-pack alone, and instead update
the allocation of flags so that fetch-pack's flags never overlap with
any others, but this will end up shrinking the number of flags available
to nearly every other Git command (that is, every Git command that
accesses objects), so the approach in this commit was used instead.
This will be tested in a subsequent commit.

Currently, Git does not support repos with very large numbers of objects
or repos that wish to minimize manipulation of certain blobs (for
example, because they are very large) very well, even if the user
operates mostly on part of the repo, because Git is designed on the
assumption that every referenced object is available somewhere in the
repo storage. In such an arrangement, the full set of objects is usually
available in remote storage, ready to be lazily downloaded.
Teach fsck about the new state of affairs. In this commit, teach fsck
that missing promisor objects referenced from the reflog are not an
error case; in future commits, fsck will be taught about other cases.

Since dc39e09942 (files_ref_store: use a transaction to update packed
refs, 2017-09-08), failure to lock a reference has been handled
incorrectly by `files_transaction_prepare()`. If
`lock_ref_for_update()` fails in the lock-acquisition loop of that
function, it sets `ret` then breaks out of that loop. Prior to
dc39e09942, that was OK, because the only thing following the loop was
the cleanup code. But dc39e09942 added another blurb of code between
the loop and the cleanup. That blurb sometimes resets `ret` to zero,
making the cleanup code think that the locking was successful.
Specifically, whenever
* One or more reference deletions have been processed successfully in
the lock-acquisition loop. (Processing the first such reference
causes a packed-ref transaction to be initialized.)
* Then `lock_ref_for_update()` fails for a subsequent reference. Such
a failure can happen for a number of reasons, such as the old SHA-1
not being correct, lock contention, etc. This causes a `break` out
of the lock-acquisition loop.
* The `packed-refs` lock is acquired successfully and
`ref_transaction_prepare()` succeeds for the packed-ref transaction.
This has the effect of resetting `ret` back to 0, and making the
cleanup code think that lock acquisition was successful.
In that case, any reference updates that were processed prior to
breaking out of the loop would be carried out (loose and packed), but
the reference that couldn't be locked and any subsequent references
would silently be ignored.
This can easily cause data loss if, for example, the user was trying
to push a new name for an existing branch while deleting the old name.
After the push, the branch could be left unreachable, and could even
subsequently be garbage-collected.
This problem was noticed in the context of deleting one reference and
creating another in a single transaction, when the two references D/F
conflict with each other, like
git update-ref --stdin <<EOF
delete refs/foo
create refs/foo/bar HEAD
EOF
This triggers the above bug because the deletion is processed
successfully for `refs/foo`, then the D/F conflict causes
`lock_ref_for_update()` to fail when `refs/foo/bar` is processed. In
this case the transaction *should* fail, but instead it causes
`refs/foo` to be deleted without creating `refs/foo`. This could
easily result in data loss.
The fix is simple: instead of just breaking out of the loop, jump
directly to the cleanup code. This fixes some tests in t1404 that were
added in the previous commit.

It is currently not allowed, in a single transaction, to add one
reference and delete another reference if the two reference names D/F
conflict with each other (e.g., like `refs/foo/bar` and `refs/foo`).
The reason is that the code would need to take locks
$GIT_DIR/refs/foo.lock
$GIT_DIR/refs/foo/bar.lock
But the latter lock couldn't coexist with the loose reference file
$GIT_DIR/refs/foo
, because `$GIT_DIR/refs/foo` cannot be both a directory and a file at
the same time (hence the name "D/F conflict).
Add a bunch of tests that we cleanly reject such transactions.
In fact, many of the new tests currently fail. They will be fixed in
the next commit along with an explanation.
