Subject: [PATCH] fsck: do not give up too early in fsck_dir()

```
When there is a random garbage file whose name happens to be 38-byte
long in a .git/objects/??/ directory, the loop terminated prematurely
without marking all the other files that it hasn't checked in the
readdir() loop.

Treat such a file just like any other garbage file, and do not break out
of the readdir() loop.

While at it, replace repeated sprintf() calls to a single one outside the
loop.

 * For readability, I think it also makes sense to move the surrounding
   code so that "tmp_obj_" check and the "is_dot_or_dotdot" check are next
   to each other, as they are both in "we know this is not a loose object
   file, and we don't want to warn about its existence" category, but that
   is a minor point.
