[PATCH 6/6] Make sure that index-pack --strict fails upon invalid tag objects

From

Message-ID
<alpine.DEB.1.00.1408281647030.990@s15462909.onlinehome-server.info>
In-Reply-To
<alpine.DEB.1.00.1408171840040.990@s15462909.onlinehome-server.info>

One of the most important use cases for the strict tag object checking is when transfer.fsckobjects is set to true to catch invalid objects early on. This new regression test essentially tests the same code path by directly calling 'index-pack --strict' on a pack containing an invalid tag object.
