Identify parts of the code that knows that we use SHA-1 hash to
name our objects too much, and use (1) symbolic constants instead
of hardcoded 20 as byte count and/or (2) use struct object_id
instead of unsigned char [20] for object names.

* bc/object-id:
  apply: convert threeway_stage to object_id
  patch-id: convert to use struct object_id
  commit: convert parts to struct object_id
  diff: convert struct combine_diff_path to object_id
  bulk-checkin.c: convert to use struct object_id
  zip: use GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ for trailers
  archive.c: convert to use struct object_id
  bisect.c: convert leaf functions to use struct object_id
  define utility functions for object IDs
  define a structure for object IDs

Convert struct commit_graft and necessary local parts of commit.c.
Also, convert several constants based on the hex length of an SHA-1 to
use GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ, and move several magic constants into variables for
readability.

The get_merge_bases*() API was easy to misuse by careless
copy&paste coders, leaving object flags tainted in the commits that
needed to be traversed.

* jc/merge-bases:
  get_merge_bases(): always clean-up object flags
  bisect: clean flags after checking merge bases

"git interpret-trailers" learned to properly handle the
"Conflicts:" block at the end.

* cc/interpret-trailers-more:
  trailer: add test with an old style conflict block
  trailer: reuse ignore_non_trailer() to ignore conflict lines
  commit: make ignore_non_trailer() non static
  merge & sequencer: turn "Conflicts:" hint into a comment
  builtin/commit.c: extract ignore_non_trailer() helper function
  merge & sequencer: unify codepaths that write "Conflicts:" hint
  builtin/merge.c: drop a parameter that is never used

The callers of get_merge_bases() can choose to leave object flags
used during the merge-base traversal by passing cleanup=0 as a
parameter, but in practice a very few callers can afford to do so
(namely, "git merge-base"), as they need to compute merge base in
preparation for other processing of their own and they need to see
the object without contaminate flags.

Change the function signature of get_merge_bases_many() and
get_merge_bases() to drop the cleanup parameter, so that the
majority of the callers do not have to say ", 1" at the end.

Give a new get_merge_bases_many_dirty() API to support only a few
callers that know they do not need to spend cycles cleaning up the
object flags.

* da/styles:
  stylefix: asterisks stick to the variable, not the type

Code clean-up.

* jk/commit-author-parsing:
  determine_author_info(): copy getenv output
  determine_author_info(): reuse parsing functions
  date: use strbufs in date-formatting functions
  record_author_date(): use find_commit_header()
  record_author_date(): fix memory leak on malformed commit
  commit: provide a function to find a header in a buffer

The API to allocate the structure to keep track of commit
decoration was cumbersome to use, inviting lazy code to
overallocate memory.

* jk/name-decoration-alloc:
  log-tree: use FLEX_ARRAY in name_decoration
  log-tree: make name_decoration hash static
  log-tree: make add_name_decoration a public function
