<title>t: move reftable/record_test.c to the unit testing framework</title>

<content type='text'>
reftable/record_test.c exercises the functions defined in
reftable/record.{c, h}. Migrate reftable/record_test.c to the
unit testing framework. Migration involves refactoring the tests
to use the unit testing framework instead of reftable's test
framework, and renaming the tests to fit unit-tests' naming scheme.

While at it, change the type of index variable 'i' to 'size_t'
from 'int'. This is because 'i' is used in comparison against
'ARRAY_SIZE(x)' which is of type 'size_t'.

Also, use set_hash() which is defined locally in the test file
instead of set_test_hash() which is defined by
reftable/test_framework.{c, h}. This is fine to do as both these
functions are similarly implemented, and
reftable/test_framework.{c, h} is not #included in the ported test.

Get rid of reftable_record_print() from the tests as well, because
it clutters the test framework's output and we have no way of
verifying the output.

The "hash-ll.h" header was introduced via d1cbe1e6d8 (hash-ll.h: split
out of hash.h to remove dependency on repository.h, 2023-04-22) to make
explicit the split between hash-related functions that rely on the
global `the_repository`, and those that don't. This split is no longer
necessary now that we we have removed the reliance on `the_repository`.

Merge "hash-ll.h" back into "hash.h". This causes some code units to not
include "repository.h" anymore, which requires us to add some forward
declarations.

<title>reftable: cast away constness when assigning constants to records</title>

The reftable records are used in multiple ways throughout the reftable
library. In many of those cases they merely act as input to a function
without getting modified by it at all. Most importantly, this happens
when writing records and when querying for records.

We rely on this in our tests and thus assign string constants to those
fields, which is about to generate warnings as those fields are of type
`char *`. While we could go through the process and instead allocate
those strings in all of our tests, this feels quite unnecessary.

Instead, add casts to `char *` for all of those strings. As this is part
of our tests, this also nicely serves as a demonstration that nothing
writes or frees those string constants, which would otherwise lead to
segfaults.

We're about to enable `-Wwrite-strings`, which changes the type of
string constants to `const char[]`. Fix various sites where we assign
such constants to non-const variables.
