The 'struct odb_read_stream' and 'struct odb_write_stream'
structures have been consolidated into a single unified 'struct
odb_stream' structure, simplifying object database streaming APIs
and enabling streaming of arbitrary object types.
* ps/odb-streams:
odb/streaming: unify function names to create new streams
odb/streaming: rename `struct input_zstream_data`
odb/streaming: rename `struct read_object_fd_data`

odb/streaming: rename `struct odb_read_stream`
odb/streaming: support streaming arbitrary object types
odb/streaming: drop `is_finished` field
odb/streaming: track write stream size in the structure
The creation of the on-disk data structures for the object database
has been made pluggable, allowing future backends to customize their
setup. As part of this, the initialization of the object database
has been deferred, and the loading of the loose-object map has been
detangled from repository initialization.
* ps/odb-make-creation-pluggable:
odb: make creation of on-disk structures pluggable
odb/source: introduce function to map source type to name
setup: defer object database creation
setup: handle ODB-related environment variables in `odb_new()`
setup: detangle loading of loose object maps
loose: load loose object map for the correct source
When creating a new "files" object database source we have to create a
couple of directories. These directories are of course specific to this
particular backend, and a different backend may require a setup that is
completely different.
Make the creation of on-disk structures pluggable to accommodate for
this.
Note that there is one exception though: the "objects" directory must
exist in a repository regardless of which backend is in use. If it
doesn't exist then the repository is not treated as a Git repository at
all. Consequently, we create this directory regardless of the backend.

Object database housekeeping in 'git gc' and 'git maintenance' has
been refactored to be pluggable. The files-backend-specific logic,
including incremental and geometric repacking as well as object
pruning, has been moved out of the command implementation and into the
files object database source, enabling future alternative object
database backends to implement their own housekeeping services.
* ps/odb-pluggable-housekeeping:
odb: make optimizations pluggable
builtin/gc: fix signedness issues in ODB-related functionality
builtin/gc: refactor ODB optimizations to operate on "files" source
builtin/gc: introduce `odb_optimize_required()`

t7900: simplify how we check for maintenance tasks
The `struct odb_read_stream` and `struct odb_write_stream` both provide
the same functionality: they allow a caller to read object data from an
arbitrary source. Historically, the only difference was that the read
stream was used to read data out of the object database, whereas the
write stream was used to write data into the object database, but the
interfaces were mostly the same.
Over the preceding commits we have refactored the write stream to have
almost exactly the same interface as the read stream. With these
refactorings we can now easily merge those two streams into a single
interface that's used for both use cases.
While most of the changes are mechanical, there are two sites that need
special mention:
- "builtin/unpack-objects.c" creates a write stream from compressed
object data.
- "odb/streaming.c" creates a write stream from a file descriptor.
Adapting these sites to yield the new stream type requires a couple more
changes. Most importantly, instead of embedding the pointer to the data
in `struct odb_write_stream`, we now allocate a structure that wraps the
new `struct odb_stream` base. Other than that though, the changes are
rather straight forward.
Some of the structures and functions are now somewhat misnamed. These
will be fixed in subsequent commits.

When passing around a `struct odb_write_stream` we typically also have
to pass the number of bytes that the stream will yield. This is required
because the object header itself contains that size, and consequently we
cannot write the header without that information.
Move this information into the stream itself so that it becomes self-
describing. In addition to that, this also brings the `struct
odb_write_stream` a bit closer to the `struct odb_read_stream` so that
we can eventually merge both stream types.

The logic to write loose objects has been refactored and moved from
'object-file.c' to the loose backend source file 'odb/source-loose.c',
making the loose backend more self-contained. This is achieved by
first refactoring force_object_loose() to use generic ODB write
interfaces instead of loose-backend internals.

'git receive-pack' has been refactored to use ODB transaction
interfaces instead of directly managing 'tmp_objdir' for staging
incoming objects, bringing it closer to being ODB backend agnostic.

object-file: rename files transaction prepare function
The function `force_object_loose()` is used to loosen packed objects
before repacking. It passes the pack's mtime along so that the newly
written loose object inherits the same timestamp. This matters for
object pruning, which uses the mtime to determine whether an object is
old enough to be pruned.
In a subsequent commit, `force_object_loose()` will be converted to use
the generic `odb_source_write_object()` interface instead of calling
`write_loose_object()` directly. But the generic interface doesn't yet
support setting a specific mtime, which makes it impossible to implement
the logic as of now.
Prepare for the change by introducing a new `mtime` parameter to this
function that we plumb through the stack. If set, the backends are
instructed to set the object's mtime accordingly. If unset, the backends
are expected to use the current time instead.

Repositories can have a compatibility hash configured, which means that
such a repository is expected to maintain a mapping between canonical
and compatibility object hashes. Maintaining this mapping is the
responsibility of the object database sources, where we either store
them as part of the loose objects map or in packfile indices v3 (once we
gain support for this feature).
But besides storing these compatibility hashes, the sources are also
responsible for generating the compatibility hash in the first place.
This is somewhat unnecessary though, as the compatibility hash should be
computed the same no matter which source is being used. The consequence
is that we need to duplicate this functionality across the different
backends, which does not make a lot of sense.
Refactor the code so that we instead compute the compatibility hash in
`odb_write_object_ext()` and then pass the computed value to the
sources. No callers need adjustment as there are none that write objects
via the source interfaces directly.

The temporary directory used by git-receive-pack(1) to write objects is
managed slightly differently than how it is done via ODB transactions:
- The temporary directory is eagerly created upfront, instead of
waiting for the first object write.
- The prefix name of the temporary directory is "incoming" instead of
"bulk-fsync".
In a subsequent commit, git-receive-pack(1) will use ODB transactions
instead of `tmp_objdir` directly. To provide a means to configure the
same transaction behavior, introduce `enum odb_transaction_flags` and

The `reprepare()` callback function can be used to flush caches of a
given object source and then prepare it anew. This is for example used
when a concurrent process may have written new objects. Ultimately, this
can be seen as doing two separate steps:
1. We drop any caches.
2. We prepare the source.
We have one callsite in git-grep(1) though that really only want to do
(2). This is done by reaching into the "files" backend directly and then
calling `odb_source_packed_prepare()`, which of course may not work with
alternate backends.
We could in theory just call `reprepare()` here, and that would likely
not have any significant downside. But this would certainly feel like a
code smell.
Instead, generalize the `reprepare()` callback to `prepare()` with a
flag that optionally instructs the backend to also flush the caches,
which allows us to drop the external `odb_source_packed_prepare()`
declaration.
