add generic, type aware object chain walker
The requirements are: * it may not crash on NULL pointers * a callback function is needed, as index-pack/unpack-objects need to do different things * the type information is needed to check the expected <-> real type and print better error messages Signed-off-by: Martin Koegler <mkoegler@auto.tuwien.ac.at> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
