replace_object: add mechanism to replace objects found in "refs/replace/"
The code implementing this mechanism has been copied more-or-less from the commit graft code. This mechanism is used in "read_sha1_file". sha1 passed to this function that match a ref name in "refs/replace/" are replaced by the sha1 that has been read in the ref. We "die" if the replacement recursion depth is too high or if we can't read the replacement object.
