Convert all instances of get_object_hash to use an appropriate reference
to the hash member of the oid member of struct object.  This provides no
functional change, as it is essentially a macro substitution.

struct object is one of the major data structures dealing with object
IDs.  Convert it to use struct object_id instead of an unsigned char
array.  Convert get_object_hash to refer to the new member as well.

We dynamically allocate a buffer and then strcpy and strcat
into it. This isn't buggy, but we'd prefer to avoid these
suspicious functions.

This would be a good candidate for converstion to xstrfmt,
but we need to record the length for dealing with index
entries. A strbuf handles that for us.

<title>find_short_object_filename: convert sprintf to xsnprintf</title>

We use sprintf() to format some hex data into a buffer. The
buffer is clearly long enough, and using snprintf here is
not necessary. And in fact, it does not really make anything
easier to audit, as the size we feed to snprintf accounts
for the magic extra 42 bytes found in each alt-&gt;name field
of struct alternate_object_database (which is there exactly
to do this formatting).

Still, it is nice to remove an sprintf call and replace it
with an xsnprintf and explanatory comment, which makes it
easier to audit the code base for overflows.

<title>add reentrant variants of sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev</title>

<id>af49c6d0918bf04aad89bd885a4eef5767a33d0e</id>
<content type='text'>
The sha1_to_hex and find_unique_abbrev functions always
write into reusable static buffers. There are a few problems
with this:

  - future calls overwrite our result. This is especially
    annoying with find_unique_abbrev, which does not have a
    ring of buffers, so you cannot even printf() a result
    that has two abbreviated sha1s.

  - if you want to put the result into another buffer, we
    often strcpy, which looks suspicious when auditing for
    overflows.

This patch introduces sha1_to_hex_r and find_unique_abbrev_r,
which write into a user-provided buffer. Of course this is
just punting on the overflow-auditing, as the buffer
obviously needs to be GIT_SHA1_HEXSZ + 1 bytes. But it is
much easier to audit, since that is a well-known size.

We retain the non-reentrant forms, which just become thin
wrappers around the reentrant ones. This patch also adds a
strbuf variant of find_unique_abbrev, which will be handy in
later patches.

<title>convert "enum date_mode" into a struct</title>
<updated>2015-06-29T18:39:07+00:00</updated>

<id>a5481a6c9438cbd9c246cfa59ff49c31a0926fb6</id>
<content type='text'>
In preparation for adding date modes that may carry extra
information beyond the mode itself, this patch converts the
date_mode enum into a struct.

Most of the conversion is fairly straightforward; we pass
the struct as a pointer and dereference the type field where
necessary. Locations that declare a date_mode can use a "{}"
constructor.  However, the tricky case is where we use the
enum labels as constants, like:

  show_date(t, tz, DATE_NORMAL);

Ideally we could say:

  show_date(t, tz, &amp;{ DATE_NORMAL });

but of course C does not allow that. Likewise, we cannot
cast the constant to a struct, because we need to pass an
actual address. Our options are basically:

  1. Manually add a "struct date_mode d = { DATE_NORMAL }"
     definition to each caller, and pass "&amp;d". This makes
     the callers uglier, because they sometimes do not even
     have their own scope (e.g., they are inside a switch
     statement).

  2. Provide a pre-made global "date_normal" struct that can
     be passed by address. We'd also need "date_rfc2822",
     "date_iso8601", and so forth. But at least the ugliness
     is defined in one place.

  3. Provide a wrapper that generates the correct struct on
     the fly. The big downside is that we end up pointing to
     a single global, which makes our wrapper non-reentrant.
     But show_date is already not reentrant, so it does not
     matter.

This patch implements 3, along with a minor macro to keep
the size of the callers sane.
