dade47c06c (commit-graph: add repo arg to graph readers, 2018-07-11)
brought more independence from the_repository to the commit graph, however
it was not completely independent of the_repository, as the previous
patches show.
To ensure we're not accessing the_repository by accident, we'd ideally
assign NULL to the_repository to trigger a segfault on access.
We currently have a temporary hack in cache.h, which relies on
the_hash_algo (which is a short form of the_repository->hash_algo) to
be set, so we cannot do that. The next best thing is to set all fields of
the_repository to 0, so any accidental access is more likely to be found.

Add a struct repository argument to the functions in commit-graph.h that
read the commit graph. (This commit does not affect functions that write
commit graphs.)
Because the commit graph functions can now read the commit graph of any
repository, the global variable core_commit_graph has been removed.
Instead, the config option core.commitGraph is now read on the first
time in a repository that a commit is attempted to be parsed using its
commit graph.
This commit includes a test that exercises the functionality on an
arbitrary repository that is not the_repository.
