Add a new function, get_tree_entry_follow_symlinks, to tree-walk.[ch].
The function is not yet used.  It will be used to implement git
cat-file --batch --follow-symlinks.

The function locates an object by path, following symlinks in the
repository.  If the symlinks lead outside the repository, the function
reports this to the caller.

We often represent our strings as a counted string, i.e. a pair of
the pointer to the beginning of the string and its length, and the
string may not be NUL terminated to that length.

To compare a pair of such counted strings, unpack-trees.c and
read-cache.c implement their own name_compare() functions
identically.  In addition, the cache_name_compare() function in
read-cache.c is nearly identical.  The only difference is when one
string is the prefix of the other string, in which case
name_compare() returns -1/+1 to show which one is longer, and
cache_name_compare() returns the difference of the lengths to show
the same information.

Unify these three functions by using the implementation from
cache_name_compare().  This does not make any difference to the
existing and future callers, as they must be paying attention only
to the sign of the returned value (and not the magnitude) because
the original implementations of these two functions return values
returned by memcmp(3) when the one string is not a prefix of the
other string, and the only thing memcmp(3) guarantees its callers is
the sign of the returned value, not the magnitude.

<title>tree-walk: finally switch over tree descriptors to contain a pre-parsed entry</title>

This continues 4651ece8 (Switch over tree descriptors to contain a
pre-parsed entry) and moves the only rest computational part

    mode = canon_mode(mode)

from tree_entry_extract() to tree entry decode phase - to
decode_tree_entry().

The reason to do it, is that canon_mode() is at least 2 conditional
jumps for regular files, and that could be noticeable should canon_mode()
be invoked several times.

That does not matter for current Git codebase, where typical tree
traversal is

    while (t-&gt;size) {
        sha1 = tree_entry_extract(t, &amp;path, &amp;mode);
        ...
        update_tree_entry(t);
    }

i.e. we do t -&gt; sha1,path.mode "extraction" only once per entry. In such
cases, it does not matter performance-wise, where that mode
canonicalization is done - either once in tree_entry_extract(), or once
in decode_tree_entry() called by update_tree_entry() - it is
approximately the same.

But for future code, which could need to work with several tree_desc's
in parallel, it could be handy to operate on tree_desc descriptors, and
do "extracts" only when needed, or at all, access only relevant part of
it through structure fields directly.

And for such situations, having canon_mode() be done once in decode
phase is better - we won't need to pay the performance price of 2 extra
conditional jumps on every t-&gt;mode access.

So let's move mode canonicalization to decode_tree_entry(). That was the
final bit. Now after tree entry is decoded, it is fully ready and could
be accessed either directly via field, or through tree_entry_extract()
which this time got really "totally trivial".

The current basedir compare aborts early in order to avoid futile
recursive searches. However, a match may still be found by another
pathspec. This can cause an error while checking out files from a branch
when using multiple pathspecs:

$ git checkout master -- 'a/*.txt' 'b/*.txt'
error: pathspec 'a/*.txt' did not match any file(s) known to git.

We do ignore trailing slash on a directory, so pathspec "abc/" matches
directory "abc". A submodule is also a directory. Apply the same logic
to it. This makes "git log submodule-path" and "git log submodule-path/"
produce the same output.

The variable name "ret" sounds like the variable to be returned, but
since e6c111b4 we return error, and it is misleading.

As this variable tells us which trees in t[] array were used in the
callback function, so that this caller can know the entries in which
of the trees need advancing, "trees_used" is a better name.

Also the assignment to 0 was removed at the start of the function as
well after the "if (interesting)" block.  Those are unneeded as that
variable is set to the callback return value any time we enter the
"if (interesting)" block, so we'd overwrite old values anyway.
