[PATCH 2/3] cat-file: add mailmap support to -s option

Using `git cat-file --use-mailmap` with `-s` option, like the following is allowed:

 git cat-file --use-mailmap -s <commit/tag object sha>

The current implementation will return the same object size irrespective of the mailmap option, which is not as useful as it could be. When we use the mailmap mechanism to replace the idents, the size of the object can change and `-s` option would be more useful if it shows the size of the changed object. This patch implements that.
