Rename `has_object()` to `odb_has_object()` to match other functions
related to the object database and our modern coding guidelines.

Introduce a compatibility wrapper so that any in-flight topics will
continue to compile.

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>treewide: convert users of `repo_has_object_file()` to `has_object()`</title>

<id>urn:sha1:062b914c841329a003f74e1340ea5178391274a6</id>
<content type='text'>
As the comment of `repo_has_object_file()` and its `_with_flags()`
variant tells us, these functions are considered to be deprecated in
favor of `has_object()`. There are a couple of slight benefits in favor
of the replacement:

  - The new function has a short-and-sweet name.

  - More explicit defaults: `has_object()` doesn't fetch missing objects
    via promisor remotes, and neither does it reload packfiles if an
    object wasn't found by default. This ensures that it becomes
    immediately obvious when a simple object existence check may result
    in expensive actions.

Most importantly though, it is confusing that we have two sets of
functions that ultimately do the same thing, but with different
defaults.

Start sunsetting `repo_has_object_file()` and its `_with_flags()`
sibling by replacing all callsites with `has_object()`:

  - `repo_has_object_file(...)` is equivalent to
    `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_RECHECK_PACKED | HAS_OBJECT_FETCH_PROMISOR)`.

  - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_QUICK | OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT)`
    is equivalent to `has_object(..., 0)`.

  - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_SKIP_FETCH_OBJECT)`
    is equivalent to `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_RECHECK_PACKED)`.

  - `repo_has_object_file_with_flags(..., OBJECT_INFO_QUICK)`
    is equivalent to `has_object(..., HAS_OBJECT_FETCH_PROMISOR)`.

The replacements should be functionally equivalent.

<title>object-store: merge "object-store-ll.h" and "object-store.h"</title>

<content type='text'>
The "object-store-ll.h" header has been introduced to keep transitive
header dependendcies and compile times at bay. Now that we have created
a new "object-store.c" file though we can easily move the last remaining
additional bit of "object-store.h", the `odb_path_map`, out of the
header.

Do so. As the "object-store.h" header is now equivalent to its low-level
alternative we drop the latter and inline it into the former.

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.

<title>packfile: pass down repository to `for_each_packed_object`</title>

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>
<updated>2024-06-14T17:26:33Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.shady.money/git/commit/?id=e7da9385708accf518a80a1e17969020fb361048'/>
<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.
