[PATCH v2] builtin/clone: avoid failure with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH
If a user is cloning a SHA-1 repository with GIT_DEFAULT_HASH set to "sha256", then we can end up with a repository where the repository format version is 0 but the extensions.objectformat key is set to "sha256". This is both wrong (the user has a SHA-1 repository) and nonfunctional (because the extension cannot be used in a v0 repository).
This happens because in a clone, we initially set up the repository, and then change its algorithm based on what the remote side tells us it's using. We've initially set up the repository as SHA-256 in this case, and then later on reset the repository version without clearing the extension.
We could just always set the extension in this case, but that would mean that our SHA-1 repositories weren't compatible with older Git versions, even though there's no reason why they shouldn't be. And we also don't want to initialize the repository as SHA-1 initially, since that means if we're cloning an empty repository, we'll have failed to honor the GIT_DEFAULT_HASH variable and will end up with a SHA-1 repository, not a SHA-256 repository.
Neither of those are appealing, so let's tell the repository initialization code if we're doing a reinit like this, and if so, to clear the extension if we're using SHA-1. This makes sure we produce a valid and functional repository and doesn't break any of our other use cases.

Changes since v1:
* Use git_config_set_gently to make things work with SHA-1 repos as well
as SHA-256 repos.
