When creating a thin pack, which allows objects to be made into a
delta against another object that is not in the resulting pack but
is known to be present on the receiving end, the code learned to
take advantage of the reachability bitmap; this allows the server
to send a delta against a base beyond the "boundary" commit.

t/perf: factor out percent calculations
t/perf: factor boilerplate out of test_perf
In the early days of the bitmap code, there was a single
static bitmap_index struct that was used behind the scenes,
and any bitmap-related functions could lazily check
bitmap_git.loaded to see if they needed to read the on-disk
data.
But since 3ae5fa0768 (pack-bitmap: remove bitmap_git global
variable, 2018-06-07), the caller is responsible for the
lifetime of the bitmap_index struct, and we return it from
prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk(), both of
which load the on-disk data (or return NULL).
So outside of these functions, it's not possible to have a
bitmap_index for which the loaded flag is not true. Nor is
it possible to accidentally pass an already-loaded
bitmap_index to the loading function (which is static-local
to the file).
We can drop this unnecessary and confusing flag.

Since it was introduced in fff42755ef (pack-bitmap: add
support for bitmap indexes, 2013-12-21), this function has
freed the result after traversing it. That is an artifact of
the early days of the bitmap code, when we had a single
static "struct bitmap_index". Back then, it was intended
that you would do:
prepare_bitmap_walk(&revs);
traverse_bitmap_commit_list(&revs);
Since the actual bitmap_index struct was totally behind the
scenes, it was convenient for traverse_bitmap_commit_list()
to clean it up, clearing the way for another traversal.
But since 3ae5fa0768 (pack-bitmap: remove bitmap_git global
variable, 2018-06-07), the caller explicitly manages the
bitmap_index struct itself, like this:
b = prepare_bitmap_walk(&revs);
traverse_bitmap_commit_list(b, &revs);
free_bitmap_index(b);
It no longer makes sense to auto-free the result after the
traversal. If you want to do another traversal, you'd just
create a new bitmap_index. And while nobody tries to call
traverse_bitmap_commit_list() twice, the fact that it throws
away the result might be surprising, and is better avoided.
Note that in the "old" way it was possible for two walks to
amortize the cost of opening the on-disk .bitmap file (since
it was stored in the global bitmap_index), but we lost that
in 3ae5fa0768. However, no code actually does this, so it's
not worth addressing now. The solution might involve a new:
reset_bitmap_walk(b, &revs);
call. Or we might even attach the bitmap data to its
matching packed_git struct, so that multiple
prepare_bitmap_walk() calls could use it. That can wait
until somebody actually has need of the optimization (and
until then, we'll do the correct, unsurprising thing).

Commit 30cdc33fba (pack-bitmap: save "have" bitmap from
walk, 2018-08-21) introduced a new function for looking at
the "have" side of a bitmap walk. Because it only makes
sense to do so after we've finished the walk, we added an
extra safety assertion, making sure that bitmap_git->result
is non-NULL.
However, this safety is misguided. It was trying to catch
the case where we had called prepare_bitmap_walk() to give
us a "struct bitmap_index", but had not yet called
traverse_bitmap_commit_list() to walk it. But all of the
interesting computation (including setting up the result and
"have" bitmaps) happens in the first function! The latter
function only delivers the result to a callback function.
So the case we were worried about is impossible; if you get
a non-NULL result from prepare_bitmap_walk(), then its
"have" field will be fully formed.
But much worse, traverse_bitmap_commit_list() actually frees
the result field as it finishes. Which means that this
assertion is worse than useless: it's almost guaranteed to
trigger!
Our test suite didn't catch this because the function isn't
actually exercised at all. The only caller comes from
6a1e32d532 (pack-objects: reuse on-disk deltas for thin
"have" objects, 2018-08-21), and that's triggered only when
you fetch or push history that contains an object with a
base that is found deep in history. Our test suite fetches
and pushes either don't use bitmaps, or use too-small
example repositories. But any reasonably-sized real-world
push or fetch (with bitmaps) would trigger this.
This patch drops the harmful assertion and tweaks the
docstring for the function to make the precondition clear.
The tests need to be improved to exercise this new
pack-objects feature, but we'll do that in a separate
commit.

When we do a bitmap walk, we save the result, which
represents (WANTs & ~HAVEs); i.e., every object we care
about visiting in our walk. However, we throw away the
haves bitmap, which can sometimes be useful, too. Save it
and provide an access function so code which has performed a
walk can query it.
A few notes on the accessor interface:
- the bitmap code calls these "haves" because it grew out
of the want/have negotiation for fetches. But really,
these are simply the objects that would be flagged
UNINTERESTING in a regular traversal. Let's use that
more universal nomenclature for the external module
interface. We may want to change the internal naming
inside the bitmap code, but that's outside the scope of
this patch.
- it still uses a bare "sha1" rather than "oid". That's
true of all of the bitmap code. And in this particular
instance, our caller in pack-objects is dealing with the
bare sha1 that comes from a packed REF_DELTA (we're
pointing directly to the mmap'd pack on disk). That's
something we'll have to deal with as we transition to a
new hash, but we can wait and see how the caller ends up
being fixed and adjust this interface accordingly.

Remove the bitmap_git global variable. Instead, generate on demand an
instance of struct bitmap_index for code that needs to access it.
This allows us significant control over the lifetime of instances of
struct bitmap_index. In particular, packs can now be closed without
worrying if an unnecessarily long-lived "pack" field in struct
bitmap_index still points to it.
The bitmap API is also clearer in that we need to first obtain a struct
bitmap_index, then we use it.
This patch raises two potential issues: (1) memory for the struct
bitmap_index is allocated without being freed, and (2)
prepare_bitmap_git() and prepare_bitmap_walk() can reuse a previously
loaded bitmap. For (1), this will be dealt with in a subsequent patch in
this patch set that also deals with freeing the contents of the struct
bitmap_index (which were not freed previously, because they have global
scope). For (2), current bitmap users only load the bitmap once at most
(note that pack-objects can use bitmaps or write bitmaps, but not both
at the same time), so support for reuse has no effect - and future users
can pass around the struct bitmap_index * obtained if they need to do 2
or more things with the same bitmap.

When we find a blob at "a/b/c", we currently pass this to
our show_object_fn callbacks as two components: "a/b/" and
"c". Callbacks which want the full value then call
path_name(), which concatenates the two. But this is an
inefficient interface; the path is a strbuf, and we could
simply append "c" to it temporarily, then roll back the
length, without creating a new copy.
So we could improve this by teaching the callsites of
path_name() this trick (and there are only 3). But we can
also notice that no callback actually cares about the
broken-down representation, and simply pass each callback
the full path "a/b/c" as a string. The callback code becomes
even simpler, then, as we do not have to worry about freeing
an allocated buffer, nor rolling back our modification to
the strbuf.
This is theoretically less efficient, as some callbacks
would not bother to format the final path component. But in
practice this is not measurable. Since we use the same
strbuf over and over, our work to grow it is amortized, and
we really only pay to memcpy a few bytes.

In-core storage of the reverse index for .pack files (which lets
you go from a pack offset to an object name) has been streamlined.
* jk/pack-revindex:
pack-revindex: store entries directly in packed_git
pack-revindex: drop hash table
A pack_revindex struct has two elements: the revindex
entries themselves, and a pointer to the packed_git. We need
both to do lookups, because only the latter knows things
like the number of objects in the pack.
Now that packed_git contains the pack_revindex struct it's
just as easy to pass around the packed_git itself, and we do
not need the extra back-pointer.
We can instead just store the entries directly in the pack.
All functions which took a pack_revindex now just take a
packed_git. We still lazy-load in find_pack_revindex, so
most callers are unaffected.
The exception is the bitmap code, which computes the
revindex and caches the pointer when we load the bitmaps. We
can continue to load, drop the extra cache pointer, and just
access bitmap_git.pack.revindex directly.

When pack-objects is computing the reachability bitmap to
serve a fetch request, it can erroneously die() if some of
the UNINTERESTING objects are not present. Upload-pack
throws away HAVE lines from the client for objects we do not
have, but we may have a tip object without all of its
ancestors (e.g., if the tip is no longer reachable and was
new enough to survive a `git prune`, but some of its
reachable objects did get pruned).
In the non-bitmap case, we do a revision walk with the HAVE
objects marked as UNINTERESTING. The revision walker
explicitly ignores errors in accessing UNINTERESTING commits
to handle this case (and we do not bother looking at
UNINTERESTING trees or blobs at all).
When we have bitmaps, however, the process is quite
different. The bitmap index for a pack-objects run is
calculated in two separate steps:
First, we perform an extensive walk from all the HAVEs to
find the full set of objects reachable from them. This walk
is usually optimized away because we are expected to hit an
object with a bitmap during the traversal, which allows us
to terminate early.
Secondly, we perform an extensive walk from all the WANTs,
which usually also terminates early because we hit a commit
with an existing bitmap.
Once we have the resulting bitmaps from the two walks, we
AND-NOT them together to obtain the resulting set of objects
we need to pack.
When we are walking the HAVE objects, the revision walker
does not know that we are walking it only to mark the
results as uninteresting. We strip out the UNINTERESTING flag,
because those objects _are_ interesting to us during the
first walk. We want to keep going to get a complete set of
reachable objects if we can.
We need some way to tell the revision walker that it's OK to
silently truncate the HAVE walk, just like it does for the
UNINTERESTING case. This patch introduces a new
`ignore_missing_links` flag to the `rev_info` struct, which
we set only for the HAVE walk.
It also adds tests to cover UNINTERESTING objects missing
from several positions: a missing blob, a missing tree, and
a missing parent commit. The missing blob already worked (as
we do not care about its contents at all), but the other two
cases caused us to die().
Note that there are a few cases we do not need to test:
1. We do not need to test a missing tree, with the blob
still present. Without the tree that refers to it, we
would not know that the blob is relevant to our walk.
2. We do not need to test a tip commit that is missing.
Upload-pack omits these for us (and in fact, we
complain even in the non-bitmap case if it fails to do
so).
