[PATCH 3/3] sha1-name: mark get_oid() error messages for translation
There are several error messages in get_oid() and its children that are clearly intended for humans, but aren't marked for translation. E.g.:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: Path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1.
Did you mean ':0:foo'?
Let's mark these for translation. While we're at it, let's switch the style to be more like our usual error messages: start with a lowercase letter and omit a period at the end of the line.
This does mean that multi-line messages like the one above don't have any punctuation between the two sentences. I solved that by adding a "hint" marker like we'd see from advise(). So the result is:
$ git show :1:foo
fatal: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1
hint: Did you mean ':0:foo'?
A few tests had to be switched to test_i18ngrep and test_i18ncmp. Since we were touching them anyway, I also simplified the ones using i18ngrep a bit for readability.

I'm on the fence about whether the resulting message is clear enough.
Certainly we could just mark them for translation but leave the
capitalization and punctuation as-is.
I actually think _both_ of those lines could be considered hints. And something like:
hint: path 'foo' is in the index, but not at stage 1;
hint: did you mean ':0:foo'?
fatal: unable to resolve object name ':1:foo'
might be better still. But I suspect the text in that final "fatal" could be better if done by the caller of get_oid(). So that takes me back to my earlier suggestion that get_oid() should actually be collecting this hints as it runs and making them available to the caller. I punted on that for now, though.
