Re: [PATCH 1/8] odb: store locality in object database sources

> Object database sources are classified either as:
>
>   - Local, which means that the source is the repository's primary
>     source. This is typically ".git/objects".
>
>   - Non-local, which is everything else. Most importantly this includes
>     alternates and quarantine directories.
>
> This locality is often computed ad-hoc by checking whether a given
> object source is the first one. This works, but it is quite roundabout.
>
> Refactor the code so that we store locality when creating the sources in
> the first place. This makes it both more accessible and robust.
