read-cache: read data in a hash-independent way

Index entries are structured with a variety of fields up front, followed
by a hash and one or two flags fields.  Because the hash field is stored
in the middle of the structure, it's difficult to use one fixed-size
structure that easily allows access to the hash and flags fields.
Adjust the structure to hold the maximum amount of data that may be
needed using a member called "data" and read and write this field
independently in the various places that need to read and write the
structure.
