And as far as I can tell it is only used by builtin/check-attr.c which we do not
intend to convert into a threaded beast in the foreseeable future I'd expect.

So maybe we can just punt on redefining the API there, i.e.
we keep the question and answer together in a struct git_attr_check.


<some return value here>
git_all_attr(const char *path); /* no other arguments except path*/

That looks great, and I incorporated that into the proposal I sent out
as an RFC.
