[PATCH v10 00/17] fsck: lib-ify object-file.c & better fsck "invalid object" error reporting

This improves fsck error reporting, see the examples in the commit messages of 16/17 and 17/17. To get there I've lib-ified more things in object-file.c and the general object APIs, i.e. now we'll return error codes instead of calling die() in these cases.

This should fix the issues noted about v9[1]. I.e.:
 A. Junio's right in [2] that the "type" can't be trusted after a
    failed read_loose_object(). I.e. if we'll fail before we can parse
    it out it'll be uninitialized. It's now initialized to OBJ_NONE,
    we can trust it if it's set to something else.
 B. I re-arranged much of 16/17 and 17/17 to make the diff (but not
    the range-diff) smaller.
 C. We now share a single "strbuf" across the whole fsck_loose() walk
    for saving away the type name, instead of allocating a new one
    each time. This is both a better memory usage pattern, and makes
    fsck_loose() itself simpler.
    It also allows for using much of the pre-image as-is, i.e. the
    whole "goto cleanup" is gone. Likewise instead of "ret" and "err"
    we just have the "err" variable now.
 D. I fixed the redundant/left-over test setup noted by Andrei
    Rybak[3].

    @@ Commit message
         f6371f92104 (sha1_file: add read_loose_object() function, 2017-01-13)
         for the introduction of read_loose_object().
     
    -    Since we're now passing in a "oi.type_name" we'll have to clean up the
    -    allocated "strbuf sb". That we're doing it right is asserted by
    -    e.g. the "fsck notices broken commit" test added in 03818a4a94c
    -    (split_ident: parse timestamp from end of line, 2013-10-14). To do
    -    that switch to a "goto cleanup" pattern, and while we're at it factor
    -    out the already duplicated free(content) to use that pattern.
    +    Since we'll need a "struct strbuf" to hold the "type_name" let's pass
    +    it to the for_each_loose_file_in_objdir() callback to avoid allocating
    +    a new one for each loose object in the iteration. It also makes the
    +    memory management simpler than sticking it in fsck_loose() itself, as
    +    we'll only need to strbuf_reset() it, with no need to do a
    +    strbuf_release() before each "return".
    +
    +    Before this commit we'd never check the "type" if read_loose_object()
    +    failed, but now we do. We therefore need to initialize it to OBJ_NONE
    +    to be able to tell the difference between e.g. its
    +    unpack_loose_header() having failed, and us getting past that and into
    +    parse_loose_header().
