This introduces an additional guard for platforms where `unsigned long`
and `size_t` are not of the same size. If the size of an object in the
database would overflow `unsigned long`, instead we now exit with an
error.
A complete fix will have to update _many_ other functions throughout the
codebase to use `size_t` instead of `unsigned long`. It will have to be
implemented at some stage.
This commit puts in a stop-gap for the time being.

In previous patches, extern was mechanically removed from function
declarations without care to formatting, causing parameter lists to be
misaligned. Manually format changed sections such that the parameter
lists should be realigned.
Viewing this patch with 'git diff -w' should produce no output.

There has been a push to remove extern from function declarations.
Remove some instances of "extern" for function declarations which are
caught by Coccinelle. Note that Coccinelle has some difficulty with
processing functions with `__attribute__` or varargs so some `extern`
declarations are left behind to be dealt with in a future patch.
This was the Coccinelle patch used:
@@
type T;
identifier f;
@@
- extern
T f(...);
and it was run with:
$ git ls-files \*.{c,h} |
grep -v ^compat/ |
xargs spatch --sp-file contrib/coccinelle/noextern.cocci --in-place
Files under `compat/` are intentionally excluded as some are directly
copied from external sources and we should avoid churning them as much
as possible.

Shifting 'unsigned char' or 'unsigned short' left can result in sign
extension errors, since the C integer promotion rules means that the
unsigned char/short will get implicitly promoted to a signed 'int' due to
the shift (or due to other operations).
This normally doesn't matter, but if you shift things up sufficiently, it
will now set the sign bit in 'int', and a subsequent cast to a bigger type
(eg 'long' or 'unsigned long') will now sign-extend the value despite the
original expression being unsigned.
One example of this would be something like
unsigned long size;
unsigned char c;
size += c << 24;
where despite all the variables being unsigned, 'c << 24' ends up being a
signed entity, and will get sign-extended when then doing the addition in
an 'unsigned long' type.
Since git uses 'unsigned char' pointers extensively, we actually have this
bug in a couple of places.
I may have missed some, but this is the result of looking at
git grep '[^0-9 ][ ]*<<[ ][a-z]' -- '*.c' '*.h'
git grep '<<[ ]*24'
which catches at least the common byte cases (shifting variables by a
variable amount, and shifting by 24 bits).
I also grepped for just 'unsigned char' variables in general, and
converted the ones that most obviously ended up getting implicitly cast
immediately anyway (eg hash_name(), encode_85()).
In addition to just avoiding 'unsigned char', this patch also tries to use
a common idiom for the delta header size thing. We had three different
variations on it: "& 0x7fUL" in one place (getting the sign extension
right), and "& ~0x80" and "& 0x7f" in two other places (not getting it
right). Apart from making them all just avoid using "unsigned char" at
all, I also unified them to then use a simple "& 0x7f".
I considered making a sparse extension which warns about doing implicit
casts from unsigned types to signed types, but it gets rather complex very
quickly, so this is just a hack.

Delta indices, at least on 64-bit platforms, tend to be larger than
the actual uncompressed data. As such, keeping track of this storage
is important if you want to successfully limit the memory size of your
pack window.
Squirrel away the total allocation size inside the delta_index struct,
and add an accessor "sizeof_delta_index" to access it.

Avoid creating a delta index for objects with maximum depth since they
are not going to be used as delta base anyway. This also reduce peak
memory usage slightly as the current object's delta index is not useful
until the next object in the loop is considered for deltification. This
saves a bit more than 1% on CPU usage.

This patch splits the diff-delta interface into index creation and delta
generation. A wrapper is provided to preserve the diff-delta() call.
This will allow for an optimization in pack-objects.c where the source
object could be fixed and a full window of objects tentatively tried
against
that same source object without recomputing the source index each time.
This patch only restructure things, plus a couple cleanups for good
measure. There is no performance change yet.

Packed delta files created by git-pack-objects seems to be the
way to go, and existing "delta" object handling code has exposed
the object representation details to too many places. Remove it

Anything that generates a delta to see if two objects are close usually
isn't interested in the delta ends up being bigger than some specified
size, and this allows us to stop delta generation early when that
happens.
