<content type='text'>
In "config.c" we host both the business logic to read and write config
files as well as the logic to parse specific Git-related variables. On
the one hand this is mixing concerns, but even more importantly it means
that we cannot easily remove the dependency on `the_repository` in our
config parsing logic.

Move the logic into "environment.c". This file is a grab bag of all
kinds of global state already, so it is quite a good fit. Furthermore,
it also hosts most of the global variables that we're parsing the config
values into, making this an even better fit.

Note that there is one hidden change: in `parse_fsync_components()` we
use an `int` to iterate through `ARRAY_SIZE(fsync_component_names)`. But
as -Wsign-compare warnings are enabled in this file this causes a
compiler warning. The issue is fixed by using a `size_t` instead.

This change allows us to drop the `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE`
declaration.

<content type='text'>
In 036876a1067 (config: hide functions using `the_repository` by
default, 2024-08-13) we have moved around a bunch of functions in the
config subsystem that depend on `the_repository`. Those function have
been converted into mere wrappers around their equivalent function that
takes in a repository as parameter, and the intent was that we'll
eventually remove those wrappers to make the dependency on the global
repository variable explicit at the callsite.

Follow through with that intent and remove `git_config()`. All callsites
are adjusted so that they use `repo_config(the_repository, ...)`
instead. While some callsites might already have a repository available,
this mechanical conversion is the exact same as the current situation
and thus cannot cause any regression. Those sites should eventually be
cleaned up in a later patch series.

Get rid of our dependency on `the_repository` in `find_odb()` by passing
in the object database in which we want to search for the source and
adjusting all callers.

Rename the function to `odb_find_source()`.

In the preceding commits we have renamed the structures contained in
"object-store.h" to `struct object_database` and `struct odb_backend`.
As such, the code files "object-store.{c,h}" are confusingly named now.
Rename them to "odb.{c,h}" accordingly.

<title>object-store: rename `object_directory` to `odb_source`</title>

<id>urn:sha1:a1e2581a1e9ca2a85ae0a018ba5fb8fe5db3c322</id>

The `object_directory` structure is used as an access point for a single
object directory like ".git/objects". While the structure isn't yet
fully self-contained, the intent is for it to eventually contain all
information required to access objects in one specific location.

While the name "object directory" is a good fit for now, this will
change over time as we continue with the agenda to make pluggable object
databases a thing. Eventually, objects may not be accessed via any kind
of directory at all anymore, but they could instead be backed by any
kind of durable storage mechanism. While it seems quite far-fetched for
now, it is thinkable that eventually this might even be some form of a
database, for example.

As such, the current name of this structure will become worse over time
as we evolve into the direction of pluggable ODBs. Immediate next steps
will start to carve out proper self-contained object directories, which
requires us to pass in these object directories as parameters. Based on
our modern naming schema this means that those functions should then be
named after their subsystem, which means that we would start to bake the
current name into the codebase more and more.

Let's preempt this by renaming the structure. There have been a couple
alternatives that were discussed:

  - `odb_backend` was discarded because it led to the association that
    one object database has a single backend, but the model is that one
    alternate has one backend. Furthermore, "backend" is more about the
    actual backing implementation and less about the high-level concept.

  - `odb_alternate` was discarded because it is a bit of a stretch to
    also call the main object directory an "alternate".

Instead, pick `odb_source` as the new name. It makes it sufficiently
clear that there can be multiple sources and does not cause confusion
when mixed with the already-existing "alternate" terminology.

In the future, this change allows us to easily introduce for example a
`odb_files_source` and other format-specific implementations.
