Add function to look up an object which is entirely unknown, so that
it can be put in a list. Various other functions related to lists of
objects.

In particular, warn about things like zero-padding of the mode bits,
which is a big no-no, since it makes otherwise identical trees have
different representations (and thus different SHA1 numbers).

Also make the warnings more regular.

This is a complete rewrite of ls-tree to make it behave more
like what "/bin/ls -a" does in the current working directory.

Namely, the changes are:

 - Unlike the old ls-tree behaviour that used paths arguments to
   restrict output (not that it worked as intended---as pointed
   out in the mailing list discussion, it was quite incoherent),
   this rewrite uses paths arguments to specify what to show.

 - Without arguments, it implicitly uses the root level as its
   sole argument ("/bin/ls -a" behaves as if "." is given
   without argument).

 - Without -r (recursive) flag, it shows the named blob (either
   file or symlink), or the named tree and its immediate
   children.

 - With -r flag, it shows the named path, and recursively
   descends into it if it is a tree.

 - With -d flag, it shows the named path and does not show its
   children even if the path is a tree, nor descends into it
   recursively.

This is still request-for-comments patch.  There is no mailing
list consensus that this proposed new behaviour is a good one.

The patch to t/t3100-ls-tree-restrict.sh illustrates
user-visible behaviour changes.  Namely:

 * "git-ls-tree $tree path1 path0" lists path1 first and then
   path0.  It used to use paths as an output restrictor and
   showed output in cache entry order (i.e. path0 first and then
   path1) regardless of the order of paths arguments.

 * "git-ls-tree $tree path2" lists path2 and its immediate
   children but having explicit paths argument does not imply
   recursive behaviour anymore, hence paths/baz is shown but not
   paths/baz/b.

It turns out that parse_object() is loading and decompressing given
object to free it just before calling the specific object parsing
function which does mmap and decompress the same object again. This
patch introduces the ability to parse specific objects directly from a
memory buffer.

Without this patch, running git-fsck-cache on the kernel repositorytake:

	real    0m13.006s
	user    0m11.421s
	sys     0m1.218s

With this patch applied:

	real    0m8.060s
	user    0m7.071s
	sys     0m0.710s

The performance increase is significant, and this is kind of a
prerequisite for sane delta object support with fsck.

The tree object parsing used to get the executable bit wrong,
and didn't know about symlinks. Also, fsck really wants the
full mode value so that it can verify the other bits for sanity,
so save it all in struct tree_entry.

We check the ordering of the entries, and we verify that none
of the entries has a slash in it (this allows us to remove the
hacky "has_full_path" member from the tree structure, since we
now just test it by walking the tree entries instead).

This adds the contents of trees to struct tree.
