[PATCH v3 5/9] repository: add repo reference to index_state

Message-ID
<6373997e05c04f57e441355eac94ca03c634e3fb.1611431900.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.839.v3.git.1611431899.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@microsoft.com>

It will be helpful to add behavior to index operations that might trigger an object lookup. Since each index belongs to a specific repository, add a 'repo' pointer to struct index_state that allows access to this repository.

Add a BUG() statement if the repo already has an index, and the index already has a repo, but somehow the index points to a different repo.

This will prevent future changes from needing to pass an additional 'struct repository *repo' parameter and instead rely only on the 'struct index_state *istate' parameter.
