Many test scripts use hash-object to create malformed objects to see how
we handle the results in various commands. In some cases we already have
to use "hash-object --literally", because it does some rudimentary
quality checks. But let's use "--literally" more consistently to
future-proof these tests against hash-object learning to be more
careful.

The "checkout" command is one of the main sources of leaks in the test
suite, let's fix the common ones by not leaking from the "struct
branch_info".
Doing this is rather straightforward, albeit verbose, we need to
xstrdup() constant strings going into the struct, and free() the ones
we clobber as we go along.
This also means that we can delete previous partial leak fixes in this
area, i.e. the "path_to_free" accounting added by 96ec7b1e70 (Convert
resolve_ref+xstrdup to new resolve_refdup function, 2011-12-13).
There was some discussion about whether "we should retain the "const
char *" here and cast at free() time, or have it be a "char *". Since
this is not a public API with any sort of API boundary let's use
"char *", as is already being done for the "refname" member of the
same struct.
The tests to mark as passing were found with:
rm .prove; GIT_SKIP_TESTS=t0027 prove -j8 --state=save t[0-9]*.sh :: --immediate
# apply & compile this change
prove -j8 --state=failed :: --immediate
I.e. the ones that were newly passing when the --state=failed command
was run. I left out "t3040-subprojects-basic.sh" and
"t4131-apply-fake-ancestor.sh" to to optimization-level related
differences similar to the ones noted in[1], except that these would
be something the current 'linux-leaks' job would run into.

Add support for --author to "test_commit". This will simplify some
current and future tests, one of those is being changed here.
Let's also line-wrap the "git commit" command invocation to make diffs
that add subsequent options easier to add, as they'll only need to add
a new option line.

Rename test and update the test description to explicitly state that
included tests all relate to commit authorship. The t7509-commit.sh
file was not renamed when other scripts were updated in compliance
with the test naming convention.
