[PATCH 00/21] Introduce `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro

Hi,

use of the `the_repository` variable is nowadays considered to be deprecated, and over time we want to convert our codebase to stop using it in favor of explicitly passing down the repository to functions via parameters. This effort faces some important problems though.

  - It is hard to prove that a certain code unit does not use
    `the_repository` anymore when sending patch series. The reviewer has
    no way to verify that it's not used anymore without reading through
    the code itself.
  - It is easy to sneak in new usages of `the_repository` by accident
    into a code unit that is already `the_repository`-clean.
  - There are many functions which implicitly use `the_repository`,
    which is really hard to spot.

This patch series aims to address those problems by introducing a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro. When unset, then the declarations of `the_repository`, `the_hash_algo` and some functions that implicitly depend on them will be hidden away. This makes it trivial to demonstrate that a code unit is `the_repository`-free by removing the definition of any such macro.

The patch series doesn't aim to be perfect. There are still many functions that implicitly depend on `the_repository` which are not hidden away. Those can be addressed over time, either by guarding them as required or, even better, removing such functions altogether.

The series is structured as follows:
  - Patches 1 to 8 refactor "hash.h" such that its functions do not
    depend on `the_repository` anymore. As these are used almost
    everywhere, the whole patch series would be rather moot without such
    a refactoring as everything would depend on `the_repository`.
  - Patch 9 introduces `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`, guarding the
    declaration of `the_repository` and `the_hash_algo`.
  - Patch 11 merges "hash-ll.h" back into "hash.h" as the split is now
    mostly pointless.
  - Patches 12 to 20 refactor various users of "hex.h" to not use
    functions depending on `the_repository` anymore.
  - Patch 21 guards declarations of functions that depend on
    `the_repository` in "hex.h".

The series depends on ps/ref-sotrage-migration at 25a0023f28 (builtin/refs: new command to migrate ref storage formats, 2024-06-06). This is moslty due to patch 10, which fixes a cyclic include that breaks the build once we merge "hash-ll.h" back into "hash.h".

There are some minor textual and semantic conflicts with "seen" that can be fixed as shown below.

Thanks!
Patrick
