e7da938570 global: introduce USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE macro
Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.

It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.

Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit

For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).

Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

f4836570a7 hash: require hash algorithm in hasheq(), hashcmp() and hashclr()
Many of our hash functions have two variants, one receiving a `struct
git_hash_algo` and one that derives it via `the_repository`. Adapt all
of those functions to always require the hash algorithm as input and
drop the variants that do not accept one.

As those functions are now independent of `the_repository`, we can move
them from "hash.h" to "hash-ll.h".

Note that both in this and subsequent commits in this series we always
just pass `the_repository->hash_algo` as input even if it is obvious
that there is a repository in the context that we should be using the
hash from instead. This is done to be on the safe side and not introduce
any regressions. All callsites should eventually be amended to use a
repo passed via parameters, but this is outside the scope of this patch
series.

bc5c5ec044 cache.h: remove this no-longer-used header
Since this header showed up in some places besides just #include
statements, update/clean-up/remove those other places as well.

Note that compat/fsmonitor/fsm-path-utils-darwin.c previously got
away with violating the rule that all files must start with an include
of git-compat-util.h (or a short-list of alternate headers that happen
to include it first).  This change exposed the violation and caused it
to stop building correctly; fix it by having it include
git-compat-util.h first, as per policy.

08c46a499a read-cache*.h: move declarations for read-cache.c functions from cache.h
For the functions defined in read-cache.c, move their declarations from
cache.h to a new header, read-cache-ll.h.  Also move some related inline
functions from cache.h to read-cache.h.  The purpose of the
read-cache-ll.h/read-cache.h split is that about 70% of the sites don't
need the inline functions and the extra headers they include.

d1cbe1e6d8 hash-ll.h: split out of hash.h to remove dependency on repository.h
hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and
use of the_hash_algo (defined as the_repository->hash_algo).  However,
most headers trying to include hash.h are only interested in the layout
of the structs like object_id.  Move the parts of hash.h that do not
depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level"
parts of hash.h), and adjust other files to use this new header where
the convenience inline functions aren't needed.

This allows hash.h and object.h to be fairly small, minimal headers.  It
also exposes a lot of hidden dependencies on both path.h (which was
brought in by repository.h) and repository.h (which was previously
implicitly brought in by object.h), so also adjust other files to be
more explicit about what they depend upon.

8380dcd700 oid_pos(): access table through const pointers
When we are looking up an oid in an array, we obviously don't need to
write to the array. Let's mark it as const in the function interfaces,
as well as in the local variables we use to derference the void pointer
(note a few cases use pointers-to-pointers, so we mark everything
const).

45ee13b942 hash_pos(): convert to oid_pos()
All of our callers are actually looking up an object_id, not a bare
hash. Likewise, the arrays they are looking in are actual arrays of
object_id (not just raw bytes of hashes, as we might find in a pack
.idx; those are handled by bsearch_hash()).

Using an object_id gives us more type safety, and makes the callers
slightly shorter. It also gets rid of the word "sha1" from several
access functions, though we could obviously also rename those with
s/sha1/hash/.

bc62692757 hash-lookup: rename from sha1-lookup
Change all remnants of "sha1" in hash-lookup.c and .h and rename them to
reflect that we're not just able to handle SHA-1 these days.
