[PATCH 00/13] object-store: a handful of cleanups

Hi,

this patch series contains a handful of cleanups to the object store subsystem:

  - A couple of definitions are moved out of "object-store.h" as they
    belong to other subsystems.
  - Some functions are dropped and/or renamed.
  - The biggest part is the removal of `repo_has_object_file()`. This
    function and its `_with_flags()` variant are marked as deprecated,
    with the replacement being `has_object()`. The benefit of that
    function is that it doesn't reload packfiles and doesn't fetch
    promisor objects by default so that it becomes more explicit when
    one really wants to do so.

These cleanups are in preparation for getting rid of `the_repository` in "object-store.c".

The patch series is built on top of 4bbb303af69 (The seventh batch, 2025-04-17) with ps/object-file-cleanup at 68cd492a3e6 (object-store: merge "object-store-ll.h" and "object-store.h", 2025-04-15) merged into it.

Thanks!
Patrick
