Philip Oakley fa8e8d5b31 doc: use 'object database' not ODB or abbreviation
The abbreviation 'ODB' is used in the technical documentation
sections for commit-graph and parallel-checkout, along with an
'odb' option in `git-pack-redundant`, without expansion.

Use 'object database' in full, in those entries. The text has not
been reflowed to keep the changes minimal.

While in the glossary for `object` terms, add the common`oid`
abbreviation to its entry.

git-pack-redundant(1)
=====================
NAME
----
git-pack-redundant - Find redundant pack files
SYNOPSIS
--------
[verse]
'git pack-redundant' [--verbose] [--alt-odb] (--all | <pack-filename>...)
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This program computes which packs in your repository
are redundant. The output is suitable for piping to
`xargs rm` if you are in the root of the repository.
'git pack-redundant' accepts a list of objects on standard input. Any objects
given will be ignored when checking which packs are required. This makes the
following command useful when wanting to remove packs which contain unreachable
objects.
git fsck --full --unreachable | cut -d ' ' -f3 | \
git pack-redundant --all | xargs rm
OPTIONS
-------
--all::
Processes all packs. Any filenames on the command line are ignored.
--alt-odb::
Don't require objects present in packs from alternate object
database (odb) directories to be present in local packs.
--verbose::
Outputs some statistics to stderr. Has a small performance penalty.
