add `ignore_missing_links` mode to revwalk
When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not have, but we may have a tip object without all of its ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its reachable objects did get pruned). In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all). When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite different. The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is calculated in two separate steps: First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us to terminate early. Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs, which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit with an existing bitmap. Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects we need to pack. When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker does not know that we are walking it only to mark the results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag, because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of reachable objects if we can. We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new `ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which we set only for the HAVE walk. It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two cases caused us to die(). Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test: 1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk. 2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing. Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do so).
