When git is compiled with SANITIZE=address then one of the cat-file 
tests added in patch 6 fails with an out of bounds access. The problem 
is that the last member of struct ref is a flexible array that is 
expected to contain a NUL terminated string but we don't allocate any 
memory for the string here. We could just add one to the size of the 
allocation but as there is a dedicated allocation function it would be 
better to use alloc_ref("").

I think it would also be worth delaying this allocation until we're sure 
it is going to be needed.

If we allocate object_info_refs and initialize ref here then we avoid 
allocating it when it is not needed.

This needs to use alloc_ref("") as well

This would be clearer as ...oids->oid[i] I think
