notes: disallow reusing non-blob as a note objectjh/note-trees-record-blobs
Currently "git notes add -C $object" will read the raw bytes from $object, and then copy those bytes into the note object, which is hardcoded to be of type blob. This means that if the given $object is a non-blob (e.g. tree or commit), the raw bytes from that object is copied into a blob object. This is probably not useful, and certainly not what any sane user would expect. So disallow it, by erroring out if the $object passed to the -C option is not a blob. The fix also applies to the -c option (in which the user is prompted to edit/verify the note contents in a text editor), and also when -c/-C is passed to "git notes append" (which appends the $object contents to an existing note object). In both cases, passing a non-blob $object does not make sense. Also add a couple of tests demonstrating expected behavior.
