Continue walking the code path for the >4GB `hash-object --literally`
test. The `hash_object_file_literally()` function internally uses both
`hash_object_file()` and `write_object_file_prepare()`. Both function
signatures use `unsigned long` rather than `size_t` for the mem buffer
sizes. Use `size_t` instead, for LLP64 compatibility.
While at it, convert those function's object's header buffer length to
`size_t` for consistency. The value is already upcast to `uintmax_t` for
print format compatibility.
Note: The hash-object test still does not pass. A subsequent commit
continues to walk the call tree's lower level hash functions to identify
further fixes.

On LLP64 systems, such as Windows, the size of `long`, `int`, etc. is
only 32 bits (for backward compatibility). Git's use of `unsigned long`
for file memory sizes in many places, rather than size_t, limits the
handling of large files on LLP64 systems (commonly given as `>4GB`).
Provide a minimum test for handling a >4GB file. The `hash-object`
command, with the `--literally` and without `-w` option avoids
writing the object, either loose or packed. This avoids the code paths
hitting the `bigFileThreshold` config test code, the zlib code, and the
pack code.
Subsequent patches will walk the test's call chain, converting types to
`size_t` (which is larger in LLP64 data models) where appropriate.

With the preceding changes we now always construct the repository's
object database before applying the repository format. Remove this
duplication by constructing it in `apply_repository_format()` instead.
Note that we create the object database _after_ having set up the
repository's hash algorithm, but _before_ setting the compat hash
algorithm. This is intentional:
- Constructing the object database may require knowledge of its
intended object format.
- Setting up the compatibility hash requires the object database to be
initialized already, because we immediately read the loose object
map.
The first point is sensible, the second maybe a little less so. Ideally,
it should be the responsibility of the object database itself to
initialize any data structures required for the compatibility hash. But
this would require further changes, so this is kept as-is for now.
Further note that this requires us to move handling of the environment
variables GIT_OBJECT_DIRECTORY and GIT_ALTERNATE_OBJECT_DIRECTORIES into
the repository format, as well. This allows the caller more flexibility
around whether or not those environment variables are being honored, as
we want to respect them in "setup.c", but not in "repository.c".

When initializing a repository via `repo_init()` we end up reading the
loose object map twice:
- `apply_repository_format()` calls `repo_set_compat_hash_algo()`,
which in turn calls `repo_read_loose_object_map()` if we have a
compatibility hash configured.
- `repo_init()` calls `repo_read_loose_object_map()` directly a second
time.
Drop the second read of the loose object map in `repo_init()`.

The function `setup_git_directory_gently()` is responsible for
discovering and setting up a Git repository based on various environment
variables and the current working directory. The result is thus a fully
usable Git repository.
One oddity of this function is that we may set up the object database
even in the case where we don't have a repository, namely in the case
where the `GIT_DIR_EXPLICIT` environment variable is set but points to a
non-existent repository. If so, we call `setup_git_env_internal()` with
the value of the environment variable so that the repository's Git
directory is configured, even if it points to a non-existent directory.
Historically though, this function didn't only configure the repository,
but also initialized the object database. We retained this behaviour
from a preceding commit, even though it really doesn't make much sense
in the first place -- there is no repository, so we don't have an object
database either. There seemingly isn't much of a reason to construct the
object database, as we typically won't try to read objects when we don't
have an object database.
There's one exception though: git-index-pack(1) may run outside of a
repository, which can be used to perform consistency checks for a
packfile. The code path is _almost_ working: we already know to call
`parse_object_buffer()`, which can read objects without an object
database being available. And that works for all object types except for
commits, because `parse_commit_buffer()` calls `parse_commit_graph()`,
and that function doesn't handle the case where we don't have an object
database.
Fix this instance to check for the object database instead of checking
for the Git directory having been initialized. With this fixed, we can
now stop constructing an object database completely.

In the preceding commit we have stopped creating the object database in
`repo_set_gitdir()`. But the logic is still somewhat confusing as we
still end up creating it conditionally in `setup_git_dir()`, which is
called multiple times.
Drop the conditional logic and instead create the object database in all
places where we have discovered and configured a repository.
This leads to even more duplication than we already had in the preceding
commit, but an alert reader may notice that we now (almost) always call
`odb_new()` directly before having called `apply_repository_format()`.
The only exception to this is `setup_git_directory_gently()`, where we
also call the function when _not_ applying the repository format. This
will be fixed in the next commit, and once that's done we can then unify
creation of the object database into `apply_repository_format()`.

The function `repo_set_gitdir()` obviously sets the Git directory for a
given repository. Less obviously though, the function also configures a
couple of auxiliary settings.
One such thing is that we create the object database in this function.
This logic only happens conditionally though, as `set_git_dir()` may be
called multiple times during repository setup, and we don't want to
create the object database multiple times. This is somewhat tangled and
hard to follow.
Remove the logic from `repo_set_gitdir()` and instead initialize the
object database outside of it. This leads to some duplication right now,
but that duplication will be removed in a subsequent step where we will
start initializing the object database as part of applying the repo's
format.

After having discovered the repository format we then apply it to the
repository so that it knows to use the proper repository extensions. The
logic to apply the format is duplicated across three callsites, which
makes it rather painfull to add new extensions.
Introduce a new function `apply_repository_format()` that takes a repo
and applies a given format to it and adapt all callsites to use it.
This function is also the new caller of `verify_repository_format()` so
that we can ensure that we never apply an invalid repository format.
The verification we have in `read_and_verify_repository_format()` is
thus redundant now and dropped.
Rename `read_and_verify_repository_format()` accordingly. While at it,
also rename `check_repository_format()` to clarify that it doesn't only
_check_ the format, but that it also applies it.
