We have a bunch of loops which iterate up to an unsigned boundary using
a signed index, which generates warnigs because we compare a signed and
unsigned value in the loop condition. Address these sites for trivial
cases and enable `-Wsign-compare` warnings for these code units.

This patch only adapts those code units where we can drop the
`DISABLE_SIGN_COMPARE_WARNINGS` macro in the same step.

Mark code units that generate warnings with `-Wsign-compare`. This
allows for a structured approach to get rid of all such warnings over
time in a way that can be easily measured.

The function `for_each_packed_object` currently relies on the global
variable `the_repository`. To eliminate global variable usage in
`packfile.c`, we should progressively shift the dependency on
the_repository to higher layers. Let's remove its usage from this
function and closely related function `is_promisor_object`.

<title>global: introduce `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e7da9385708accf518a80a1e17969020fb361048</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

In git-rev-list(1), we describe the `--unpacked` option as:

    Only useful with `--objects`; print the object IDs that are not in
    packs.

This is true of commits, which we discard via get_commit_action(), but
not of the objects they reach. So if we ask for an --objects traversal
with --unpacked, we may get arbitrarily many objects which are indeed
packed.

I am nearly certain this behavior dates back to the introduction of
`--unpacked` via 12d2a18780 ("git rev-list --unpacked" shows only
unpacked commits, 2005-07-03), but I couldn't get that revision of Git
to compile for me. At least as early as v2.0.0 this has been subtly
broken:

    $ git.compile --version
    git version 2.0.0

    $ git.compile rev-list --objects --all --unpacked
    72791fe96c93f9ec5c311b8bc966ab349b3b5bbe
    05713d991c18bbeef7e154f99660005311b5004d v1.0
    153ed8b7719c6f5a68ce7ffc43133e95a6ac0fdb
    8e4020bb5a8d8c873b25de15933e75cc0fc275df one
    9200b628cf9dc883a85a7abc8d6e6730baee589c two
    3e6b46e1b7e3b91acce99f6a823104c28aae0b58 unpacked.t

There, only the first, third, and sixth entries are loose, with the
remaining set of objects belonging to at least one pack.

The implications for this are relatively benign: bare 'git repack'
invocations which invoke pack-objects with --unpacked are impacted, and
at worst we'll store a few extra objects that should have been excluded.

Arguably changing this behavior is a backwards-incompatible change,
since it alters the set of objects emitted from rev-list queries with
`--objects` and `--unpacked`. But I argue that this change is still
sensible, since the existing implementation deviates from
clearly-written documentation.

The fix here is straightforward: avoid showing any non-commit objects
which are contained in packs by discarding them within list-objects.c,
before they are shown to the user. Note that similar treatment for
`list-objects.c::show_commit()` is not needed, since that case is
already handled by `revision.c::get_commit_action()`.

<title>rev-list: add commit object support in `--missing` option</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9830926c7db626e374b887eeecb96515e2956638</id>
<content type='text'>
The `--missing` object option in rev-list currently works only with
missing blobs/trees. For missing commits the revision walker fails with
a fatal error.

Let's extend the functionality of `--missing` option to also support
commit objects. This is done by adding a `missing_objects` field to
`rev_info`. This field is an `oidset` to which we'll add the missing
commits as we encounter them. The revision walker will now continue the
traversal and call `show_commit()` even for missing commits. In rev-list
we can then check if the commit is a missing commit and call the
existing code for parsing `--missing` objects.

A scenario where this option would be used is to find the boundary
objects between different object directories. Consider a repository with
a main object directory (GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY) and one or more alternate
object directories (GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES). In such a
repository, using the `--missing=print` option while disabling the
alternate object directory allows us to find the boundary objects
between the main and alternate object directory.
