The global variable 'fetch_if_missing' has been moved to a member in
'struct repository', continuing the libification process and
allowing per-repository control (such as for submodules).
* ty/repository-fetch-if-missing:
repository: move fetch_if_missing into struct repository

The mechanism to generate a packfile corresponding to the result of
a fetch/push has been made pluggable through a set of object
database callback functions, removing hardcoded references to
'pack-objects' and enabling alternative ODBs to serve packfiles
themselves.
* ps/odb-pluggable-pack-generation:
bundle: generate packfiles via the object database
bundle: get (mostly) rid of `the_repository`
builtin/bundle: refactor option handling for progress meter
send-pack: generate packfiles via the object database
upload-pack: generate packfiles via the object database
odb: introduce interface to generate packfiles
|
|
The 'git receive-pack' command has been updated to use a new ODB
transaction interface for writing incoming packfiles, making it more
backend-agnostic.
* jt/receive-pack-pluggable-writes:
odb/transaction: add transaction interface to write packfiles
odb: return temporary ODB source when set
builtin/receive-pack: explicitly pass packfile fd
builtin/receive-pack: report unpack errors via strbuf
builtin/receive-pack: lift global state out of unpack()

odb/transaction: add transaction finalize interface
builtin/receive-pack: properly clean up keep files

The object database layer has been simplified by eagerly loading
alternate object directories upon initialization, instead of
deferring it to the first object lookup. This eliminates the need
for scattered lazy-loading calls throughout the codebase and paves
the way for integrating alternates with the pluggable backends.
* ps/odb-eagerly-load-alternates:
odb: drop `alternates_db` field
odb: drop `loaded_alternates` field
odb: eagerly initialize alternates
odb: decouple source path comparisons from `the_repository`
setup: create ref and object databases after config is written

The object database (odb) API has been refactored to distinguish
between missing objects and corrupt ones by returning more
descriptive error statuses. Both the packed and loose backends now
faithfully propagate error details using a generic strbuf error
mechanism, removing backend-specific leakage from central lookup
paths.
* ps/odb-generic-corrupt-objects:
odb: handle `OBJECT_INFO_DIE_IF_CORRUPT` generically
odb/source: allow `read_object_info()` to bubble up error messages
odb/source: let callers discern missing and corrupt objects
odb/source: introduce error status when reading objects
odb/source-packed: flag known-bad objects as corrupt and not missing

The 'struct odb_read_stream' and 'struct odb_write_stream'
structures have been consolidated into a single unified 'struct
odb_stream' structure, simplifying object database streaming APIs
and enabling streaming of arbitrary object types.
* ps/odb-streams:
odb/streaming: unify function names to create new streams
odb/streaming: rename `struct input_zstream_data`
odb/streaming: rename `struct read_object_fd_data`
odb/streaming: consolidate read and write streams

odb/streaming: track write stream size in the structure

The 'remote-object-info' command for 'git cat-file --batch-command'
has been extended to support the '%(objecttype)' placeholder.
* ps/cat-file-remote-object-info-type:
cat-file: unify default format
serve: advertise type capability
fetch-object-info: parse type from server response
protocol-caps: add type support to object-info
transport: drop remote object-info fields from transport struct
fetch-object-info: die() on the remaining error path
fetch-object-info: use dedicated struct for the results
fetch-object-info: pass arguments directly instead of a struct
fetch-object-info: detect malformed server responses
t5701: use test_file_size() to get the size of a file

Packfiles have two primary use cases:
- They are used to store objects at rest in a Git repository.
- They are used on the transport layer to transfer objects between two
repositories.
The first class is closely tied to a given object database backend, and
as such this use is highly specific to how such a backend decides to
store its data. This shows in git-pack-objects(1), which is used by
git-repack(1) et al to optimize the object database, which supports lots
of options that are closely coupled with how data is stored.
But the second class is quite a lot more generic: we don't care about
specifics of how the object database stores its objects, but to generate
the packfiles we only care about the object graph itself. Still, this
use case is also coupled with git-pack-objects(1).
Unfortunately, because git-pack-objects(1) covers both classes, the
result is that it is very hard to port the whole command to properly
support pluggable object databases. There are simply way too many
options that an alternative implementation will have a very hard time to
support in the first place.
And despite being hard to implement, it's also quite unnecessary to
implement those backend-specific options. Optimizing the object database
has already been made pluggable, and an alternative implementation is
unlikely to care about cruft packs, unpacked objects, keep packs and the
like. But we still need to make at least _parts_ of the packfile
generation pluggable so that backends can generate packfiles for the
transport layer itself.
Introduce a new interface that lets backends generate a new packfile and
implement that interface for the "files" backend. The options supported
by the callback are exactly the set of options that are required for the
transport layer, but nothing more.
This means that git-pack-objects(1) itself cannot be ported over to this
new interface, but as explained above that's a hard feat to pull off due
to the backend-specific features. Ideally though, we should expose the
ability to generate arbitrary packfiles using this interface. The intent
of this is to eventually introduce a git-objects(1) subcommand (similar
to git-refs(1)) that exposes generic interfaces for accessing everything
related to the object database. In that case, we are able to expose only
those options that are generic.
Subsequent commits will convert git-upload-pack(1), git-send-pack(1) and
git-bundle(1) to use this interface.

When invoked, `odb_set_temporary_primary_source()` installs a temporary
object directory as the new primary ODB source. A caller that wants to
operate on the ODB source of the open transaction must assume that it is
the first entry in the ODB source list which is a bit awkward and
fragile.
Instead, return the newly installed source directly and report the
previous primary source via a new `prev_source` out parameter. Propagate
the installed source through `tmp_objdir_replace_primary_odb()` and
start storing it in the "files" ODB transaction so a subsequent commit
can easily access it without relying on the ODB source list ordering.

The creation of the on-disk data structures for the object database
has been made pluggable, allowing future backends to customize their
setup. As part of this, the initialization of the object database
has been deferred, and the loading of the loose-object map has been
detangled from repository initialization.
* ps/odb-make-creation-pluggable:

As explained in the preceding commits, reading objects can either fail
because the object truly does not exist or because it exists, but its
data is corrupt. Some callers do care about this distinction, but there
is no way to tell these two cases apart right now.
Introduce a new `ODB_READ_NOT_FOUND` value that ought to be returned by
the backends in case the object truly does not exist and adapt backends
to use it.
Note that we don't yet return this error from `odb_read_object_info()`
itself. This will be fixed in a subsequent commit.

The `read_object_info()` callback of `struct odb_source` is documented
to return a negative error code in case reading the object has failed,
and zero otherwise. This is overly broad though, as there are two very
different kinds of failures:
- The object may not exist in the source at all.
- The object exists, but reading it has failed, for example because
its on-disk state is corrupt.
This distinction matters to callers: when an object is corrupt in one
source we may still find a good copy of it in another source, so we may
still be able to proceed with a given operation.
The "packed" source already distinguishes these cases by returning a
positive value for missing objects and a negative value in case reading
the object has failed. But it is the only such source that distinguishes
those cases, and the returned value is translated into a negative error
code by the "files" backend anyway.
Introduce a new error status that is specific to reading objects and
adapt the infrastructure to return it. For now, we only discern
successful reads from generic failures, which mostly matches the status
quo. In subsequent commits though we're about to add an error that
explicitly tells the caller that an object does not exist.
Note that we keep the "packed" backend as-is with its positive return
code for missing objects. This will be fixed in the next commit.

The `struct object_database::alternates_db` field tracks the value of
the "GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES" environment variable and is
used in `odb_prepare_alternates()`. It's not necessary to store it as a
separate field anymore though, as we stopped lazy-loading alternates.
Consequently, we can simply pass it to `odb_prepare_alternates()` via
`odb_new()` now.
Do so and remove the field.

The `struct object_database::loaded_alternates` field tells us whether
or not alternates have been loaded already. This field was useful before
the preceding commit as we were indeed lazy-loading alternates. But now
that we started to eagerly load them we can assume them to be loaded
after `odb_new()`, and hence the field does not serve any purpose
anymore.

When creating the object database we initialize the main object database
source, but we don't yet initialize its alternates. Instead, we have
many calls to `odb_prepare_alternates()` cluttered around the code base
whenever we are about to iterate through the sources.
This lazy loading doesn't really add much value: the moment where we
read any object we _have_ to load the alternates anyway. So given that
most of our commands would access the object database this optimization
is not really buying us much in the first place. Quite on the contrary,
it makes the code harder to understand and is a potential source of bugs
in case any callsite forgot to prepare alternates before we iterate
through the sources.
Historically though there was a reason why we deferred lazy-loading: it
may happen that the repository has "core.ignoreCase" configured, and we
use that to deduplicate the list of alternates in case we had the same
alternate configured multiple times, but with different casing. We used
to initialize the object database before we had fully configured the
owning repository though, and consequently we couldn't access that
configuration yet. This has changed in the preceding commit though where
we started to parse "core.ignoreCase" manually.
Eagerly prepare alternates both when creating the object database and
when flushing its caches. Drop the now-unneeded calls to prepare the
alternates that are scattered across the code base.

When registering alternates we deduplicate object database sources by
their path so that the same source won't be added twice. Ever since
cf2dc1c238 (speed up alt_odb_usable() with many alternates, 2021-07-07)
this duplicate check is backed by a map keyed by the source's path,
using `fspathhash()` and `fspatheq()` as hash and equality functions,
respectively.
These functions are problematic in this context for two reasons:
- They implicitly depend on `the_repository` instead of the
repository that owns the object database.
- They derive case-sensitivity from `repo_ignore_case()`, which
returns a default value in case the repository's configuration has
not been parsed yet. Object database sources may be registered
before that is the case, so the answer may flip depending on when a
source gets registered.
Fix this by making the comparison self-contained in the object
database. Instead of using `fspathhash()` and `fspatheq()` we resolve
"core.ignoreCase" manually and then use the correct comparison function
based on the result. This requires us to migrate to a `struct hashmap`,
as the khash interface does not give us the ability to pass an arbitrary
payload to these functions, and hence we'd have to use global state to
decide which of those to use.
Note that we can unconditionally use `strihash()` to compute entry
hashes regardless of case sensitivity: a hash function only needs to
guarantee that equal keys have equal hashes, and a case-insensitive
hash satisfies this requirement for both case-sensitive and
case-insensitive equality.
Overall it's quite debatable whether all of this complexity really is
worth it, out of two reasons:
- We could linearly search through all sources to find duplicates. But
the mentioned commit cares about cases with thousands of alternates,
and a linear search would of course regress performance quite a bit.
This doesn't really feel like a reasonable case to care about, but I
don't feel comfortable regressing it anyway.
- It's dubious whether we should handle "core.ignoreCase" in the first
place. The downside would be that we might add the same alternate
multiple times with different casing. But this is an edge case, and
it's not even fully fixed because we don't resolve symlinks or
mountpoints, either.
So for now, keep this infrastructure in-place while removing the global
dependency on `the_repository`. We may want to revisit this in the
future though.

The global variable 'fetch_if_missing' controls whether a missing
object check should prompt a lazy fetch from a promisor remote.
In order to continue the libification effort, move it into
'struct repository' and initialize it to 1 by default to keep the
previous behavior.
builtin/fetch-pack.c, builtin/fsck.c, and builtin/rev-list.c are
entered via commands marked RUN_SETUP in git.c:commands[]. Their
'repo' parameter is only NULL when '-h' is given outside of a
repository, in which case either show_usage_if_asked() or
parse_options()'s own '-h' handling exits the process before
returning. We can therefore drop their UNUSED markers and assign
to 'repo' directly.
builtin/index-pack.c is entered via RUN_SETUP_GENTLY, so its
'repo' pointer can be NULL any time it is run outside of a
repository, not only with '-h'. We keep a NULL check there and fall
back to 'the_repository'.
builtin/pack-objects.c needs two adjustments to make 'repo' reach
every 'fetch_if_missing' call site: 'read_stdin_packs()' now takes a
'struct repository *'; 'option_parse_missing_action()', which
is registered as an OPT_CALLBACK, receives a 'repo' through the
option's 'value' field now.
Additionally, update the partial clone documentation to reflect
that this is now a per-repository flag.

fetch_object_info() collects information about N objects, but it stores
the results in an array of object_info. That struct holds the extended
parameters of read_object_info() (The optional outputs the caller wants
filled). Its pointers tell that function where to write the answers for
a single object. object_info is not meant to be the final storage, and
since fetch_object_info() does not call read_object_info(), there is no
reason to use it. Using it means allocating one scalar per object per
attribute just to have those pointers somewhere to point at.
Add struct fetch_object_info_results. The caller sets the wants_* flags
to say what it is interested in, and fetch_object_info() allocates one
array per attribute. A set wants_* flag means "asked for", while a
non-NULL array means "available". The caller releases the arrays with
free_fetch_object_info_results().
The object_info_options string list is no longer needed. Filtering
against the server's advertisement now sets local ask_* flags, and
send_object_info_request() turns those into the v2 protocol option
strings. remote_atom_map[] existed only to map those strings back into
atom names, so drop it and build remote_allowed_atoms from the result
arrays.
Currently for wants_* and ask_* there is only the 'size' variant but a
subsequent commit will add '*_type'.
free_object_info_contents() loses its only caller and is dropped.
Dropping the allow-list check makes the final else reachable from the
wire, so die() instead of BUG(): an unknown attribute is the server's
error, not ours.

When initializing a repository's object database we have to respect the
GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES environment
variables, which can be set by the user to override the default location
of where we write objects to and read objects from.
This is handled in `apply_repository_format()`, which is fine. But in a
subsequent commit we'll have to defer constructing the object database
to a later point in some cases, and that will require a second site
where we call `odb_new()`. And of course, that second site would have to
handle those environment variables, as well.
It would be somewhat awkward to duplicate the logic though. But there's
a better alternative: instead of handling this logic in "setup.c", we
can easily handle environment variables in `odb_new()` itself. This
ensures that object database creation is neatly self-contained, and we
don't have to duplicate any of the logic.
Another benefit is that in a future patch series we plan to move
handling of alternates into the backends themselves [1], and that will
require us to also handle those environment variables in the "files"
backend itself. So moving the logic into the ODB level already gets us
one step closer to that goal.
Refactor the logic accordingly.

Object database housekeeping in 'git gc' and 'git maintenance' has
been refactored to be pluggable. The files-backend-specific logic,
including incremental and geometric repacking as well as object
pruning, has been moved out of the command implementation and into the
files object database source, enabling future alternative object

The `struct odb_read_stream` and `struct odb_write_stream` both provide
the same functionality: they allow a caller to read object data from an
arbitrary source. Historically, the only difference was that the read
stream was used to read data out of the object database, whereas the
write stream was used to write data into the object database, but the
interfaces were mostly the same.
Over the preceding commits we have refactored the write stream to have
almost exactly the same interface as the read stream. With these
refactorings we can now easily merge those two streams into a single
interface that's used for both use cases.
While most of the changes are mechanical, there are two sites that need
special mention:
- "builtin/unpack-objects.c" creates a write stream from compressed
object data.
- "odb/streaming.c" creates a write stream from a file descriptor.
Adapting these sites to yield the new stream type requires a couple more
changes. Most importantly, instead of embedding the pointer to the data
in `struct odb_write_stream`, we now allocate a structure that wraps the
new `struct odb_stream` base. Other than that though, the changes are
rather straight forward.
Some of the structures and functions are now somewhat misnamed. These
will be fixed in subsequent commits.

When passing around a `struct odb_write_stream` we typically also have
to pass the number of bytes that the stream will yield. This is required
because the object header itself contains that size, and consequently we
cannot write the header without that information.
Move this information into the stream itself so that it becomes self-
describing. In addition to that, this also brings the `struct
odb_write_stream` a bit closer to the `struct odb_read_stream` so that
we can eventually merge both stream types.

Since the info command in cat-file --batch-command prints object
info for a given object, it is natural to add another command in
cat-file --batch-command to print object info for a given object
from a remote.
Add remote-object-info command to cat-file --batch-command.
While info takes object ids one at a time, this creates overhead when
making requests to a server. So remote-object-info instead can take
multiple object ids at once.
The cat-file --batch-command command is generally implemented in the
following manner:
- Receive and parse input from user
- Call respective function attached to command
- Get object info, print object info
In --buffer mode, this changes to:
- Receive and parse input from user
- Store respective function attached to command in a queue
- After flush, loop through commands in queue
- Call respective function attached to command
- Get object info, print object info
Notice how the getting and printing of object info is accomplished one
at a time. As described above, this creates a problem for making
requests to a server. Therefore, remote-object-info is implemented in
the following manner:
- Receive and parse input from user
If command is remote-object-info:
- Get object info from remote
- Loop through and print each object info
Else:
- Call respective function attached to command
- Parse input, get object info, print object info
And finally for --buffer mode remote-object-info:
- Receive and parse input from user
- Store respective function attached to command in a queue
- After flush, loop through commands in queue:
If command is remote-object-info:
- Get object info from remote
- Loop through and print each object info
Else:
- Call respective function attached to command
- Get object info, print object info
To summarize, remote-object-info gets object info from the remote and
then loops through the object info passed in, printing the info.
In order for remote-object-info to avoid remote communication
overhead in the non-buffer mode, the objects are passed in as such:
remote-object-info <remote> <oid> <oid> ... <oid>
rather than
remote-object-info <remote> <oid>
remote-object-info <remote> <oid>
...
remote-object-info <remote> <oid>
Placeholders in the format are validated against an allow-list of the
atoms the remote path supports: "objectname" and "objectsize".
Unsupported atoms expand to an empty string, honoring how for-each-ref
handles known but inapplicable atoms.
Without this, atoms like %(objecttype) would mark data->info.typep and
because the server only sends size, type_name() would later crash.
As extra safety, even outside of the remote path, initialize
expand_data's type to OBJ_BAD and handle type_name() returning NULL.

Sometimes, it is beneficial to retrieve information about an object
without downloading it entirely. The server-side logic for this
functionality was implemented in commit "a2ba162cda (object-info:
support for retrieving object info, 2021-04-20)." And the wire
format is documented at
https://git-scm.com/docs/protocol-v2#_object_info.
Introduce client-side support for the object-info capability.
Add its own function for object-info separate from existing fetch
infrastructure.
Currently, the client supports requesting a list of OIDs with the size
attribute from a v2 server. If the server does not advertise this
feature (i.e., transfer.advertiseobjectinfo is set to false), the client
returns an error and exits.
Note that:
1. The entire request is written into req_buf before being sent to the
remote. This approach follows the pattern used in the

The object database enumeration interface odb_for_each_object() has
been taught to accept object filters, allowing the underlying backends
to optimize the traversal by using reachability bitmaps when
available. 'git cat-file --batch-all-objects' has been updated to use
this generic interface, simplifying its code and avoiding direct
access to ODB backend internals.
* ps/odb-for-each-object-filter:
builtin/cat-file: filter objects via object database
odb: introduce object filters to `odb_for_each_object()`
pack-bitmap: introduce function to open bitmap for a single source
pack-bitmap: drop `_1` suffix from functions that open bitmaps
pack-bitmap: iterate object sources when opening bitmaps
pack-bitmap: allow aborting iteration of bitmapped objects
pack-objects: drop unused return value from add_object_entry()
pack-bitmap: mark object filter as `const`
odb/source-packed: improve lookup when enumerating objects

Repositories can have a compatibility hash configured, which means that
such a repository is expected to maintain a mapping between canonical
and compatibility object hashes. Maintaining this mapping is the
responsibility of the object database sources, where we either store
them as part of the loose objects map or in packfile indices v3 (once we
gain support for this feature).
But besides storing these compatibility hashes, the sources are also
responsible for generating the compatibility hash in the first place.
This is somewhat unnecessary though, as the compatibility hash should be
computed the same no matter which source is being used. The consequence
is that we need to duplicate this functionality across the different
backends, which does not make a lot of sense.
Refactor the code so that we instead compute the compatibility hash in
`odb_write_object_ext()` and then pass the computed value to the
sources. No callers need adjustment as there are none that write objects
via the source interfaces directly.

The 'whence' field in 'struct object_info' has been removed. The

The function `for_each_bitmapped_object()` can be used to iterate
through all objects covered by a bitmap. The benefit of this function is
that it allows the caller to efficiently handle some object filters. For
example, this can be used to filter out objects of a specific type with
some simple bitmap operations. But callers are currently required to
manually wire up the use of bitmaps though, and to do so they have to
reach into internals of a given object database source.
Introduce a new `struct odb_for_each_object_options::filter` field so
that the interface becomes generic. When set, then a backend may
optionally use the filter to skip some objects that it would have
otherwise yielded.
Note that the respective backends are free to ignore this field if they
cannot meaningfully optimize for a given filter, and consequently
callers need to verify whether they actually want the returned objects.
While annoying, we cannot easily lift this restriction anyway as the
object filter infrastructure supports some filters that cannot be
answered by the object database alone.
An alternative might be to limit the filters to only those that _can_ be
answered by backends. But ultimately, the filters that can be answered
efficiently by the "packed" backend are completely disjunct from those
that can be answered by the "loose" backend, and consequently the set of
filters supported by all backends would be empty. Furthermore, it would
require us to make assumptions about capabilities of future backends,
which may be able to efficiently handle more filters than current ones.
So in the end, this alternative would only limit us artificially.
Implement the logic for the "packed" source. Note that we use the new
function `prepare_bitmap_git_for_source()` to open the bitmap: as the
backend operates on a single object source, we must only use bitmaps
that belong to that specific source. Otherwise we might yield objects
that are not part of the source at all, and with multiple sources we
would enumerate the same bitmap once per source.

The 'reprepare()' callback for object database sources has been
generalized into a 'prepare()' callback with an optional flush cache
flag, and a new 'odb_prepare()' wrapper has been introduced to allow
pre-opening object database sources.

Move `odb_optimize()` and `odb_optimize_required()` from "builtin/gc.c"
into the "files" source and wire them up via newly introduced vtable
pointers for the object database sources. This makes the logic pluggable
and thus allows other backends to have their own, custom implementation.

The previous commit introduced `struct object_info_source` as an opt-in
container for backend-specific information, but for now we only moved
preexisting data into this structure. Most importantly, the caller has
no way yet to learn about which source an object was actually looked up
from. Instead, callers have to rely on the `whence` enum to distinguish
the object type, but cannot use that enum to tell the object source.
Add a `struct odb_source *source` field to the structure and populate it
from each backend's lookup path.
The `whence` enum is still set and used by callers; it will be removed
in a subsequent commit now that `sourcep->source` can identify the
backend on its own.

The `struct object_info` carries two pieces of information
about how an object was looked up:
- The `whence` enum identifying the backend.
- The backend-tagged union `u` exposing backend-specific details
(currently only the packed-source case, which records the owning
pack, offset and packed object type).
The union is populated unconditionally, even though most callers don't
care about provenance at all.
Split the backend-specific union out into a new public type, `struct
object_info_source`, and make the object info structure carry it via
just another opt-in request pointer. As with all the other requestable
information, callers that need source info allocate a `struct
object_info_source` on the stack and point `sourcep` at it; callers that
don't care about it simply leave the field as a `NULL` pointer. Adapt
callers accordingly.
Note that the `whence` enum is strictly-speaking also backend-specific
information, so it would be another good candidate to be moved into the
`struct object_info_source`. For now though it is left alone, as it will
be replaced by a `struct odb_source` pointer in a subsequent commit.

The `reprepare()` callback function can be used to flush caches of a
given object source and then prepare it anew. This is for example used
when a concurrent process may have written new objects. Ultimately, this
can be seen as doing two separate steps:
1. We drop any caches.
2. We prepare the source.
We have one callsite in git-grep(1) though that really only want to do
(2). This is done by reaching into the "files" backend directly and then
calling `odb_source_packed_prepare()`, which of course may not work with
alternate backends.
We could in theory just call `reprepare()` here, and that would likely
not have any significant downside. But this would certainly feel like a
code smell.
Instead, generalize the `reprepare()` callback to `prepare()` with a
flag that optionally instructs the backend to also flush the caches,
which allows us to drop the external `odb_source_packed_prepare()`
declaration.

When `js/objects-larger-than-4gb-on-windows` widened the streaming,
index-pack and unpack-objects code paths, in the interest of keeping the
patches somewhat reasonably-sized, it left the public ODB API still
typed in `unsigned long`. In particular `struct object_info::sizep` and
the four wrappers built on top of it (`odb_read_object`,
`odb_read_object_peeled`, `odb_read_object_info`, `odb_pretend_object`)
still return the unpacked size through `unsigned long *`, so on Windows
`cat-file -s` and the `git add` / `git status` paths for a >4 GiB blob
silently cap at 4 GiB.
Widen the field and the four wrappers. The previous commits already
widened the `unpack_entry()` cascade and pack-objects' in-core size
accessors, so most of the cascade arrives here with no further work: the
temporary shims in `packed_object_info_with_index_pos()` and in
`unpack_entry()`'s delta-base recovery path go away, the two
`SET_SIZE(entry, cast_size_t_to_ulong(canonical_size))` calls in
`check_object()` and the matching one in `drop_reused_delta()` collapse
to plain `SET_SIZE`, and `oe_get_size_slow()`'s tail
`cast_size_t_to_ulong()` is gone too.
What remains narrow are the boundaries this series does not
intend to touch: the diff, blame, textconv and fast-import machinery.
Even so, this patch is unfortunately quite large.

Next to our typical object database sources, each object database also
has an implicit source of "cached" objects. These cached objects only
exist in memory and some use cases:
- They contain evergreen objects that we expect to always exist, like
for example the empty tree.
- They can be used to store temporary objects that we don't want to
persist to disk, which is used by git-blame(1) to create a fake
worktree commit.
Overall, their use is somewhat restricted though. For example, we don't
provide the ability to use it as a temporary object database source that
allows the user to write objects, but discard them after Git exists. So
while these cached objects behave almost like a source, they aren't used
as one.
This is about to change over the following commits, where we will turn
cached objects into a new "in-memory" source. This will allow us to use
it exactly the same as any other source by providing the same common
interface as the "files" source.
For now, the in-memory source only hosts the cached objects and doesn't
provide any logic yet. This will change with subsequent commits, where
we move respective functionality into the source.

The `read()` callback used by `struct odb_write_stream` currently
returns a pointer to an internal buffer along with the number of bytes
read. This makes buffer ownership unclear and provides no way to report
errors.
Update the interface to instead require the caller to provide a buffer,
and have the callback return the number of bytes written to it or a
negative value on error. While at it, also move the `struct
odb_write_stream` definition to "odb/streaming.h". Call sites are
updated accordingly.
