[PATCH 17/30] survey: add report of "largest" paths

In-Reply-To
<pull.1786.git.1725935335.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Derrick Stolee <stolee@gmail.com>

Since we are already walking our reachable objects using the path-walk API, let's now collect lists of the paths that contribute most to different metrics. Specifically, we care about

 * Number of versions.
 * Total size on disk.
 * Total inflated size (no delta or zlib compression).

This information can be critical to discovering which parts of the repository are causing the most growth, especially on-disk size. Different packing strategies might help compress data more efficiently, but the toal inflated size is a representation of the raw size of all snapshots of those paths. Even when stored efficiently on disk, that size represents how much information must be processed to complete a command such as 'git blame'.

Since the on-disk size is likely to be fragile, stop testing the exact output of 'git survey' and check that the correct set of headers is output.
