While we are refactoring sha1_file_name() and adding
sha1_file_name_alt(), could we also change the API and
pass in the strbuf so we can get rid of the static buffer?
Granted, it is a little off topic, but it will help out
in the long run.

Same thing here, since we are renaming the function anyway, could we
add a strbuf arg and get rid of the static one?
