During abbreviation checks, we navigate to the position within a
pack-index that an OID would be inserted and check surrounding OIDs
for the maximum matching prefix. This position may be beyond the
last position, because the given OID is lexicographically larger
than every OID in the pack. Then nth_packed_object_oid() does not
initialize "oid".
Use the return value of nth_packed_object_oid() to prevent these
errors.
Also the comment about checking near-by objects miscounts the
neighbours. If we have a hit at "first", we check "first-1" and
"first+1" to make sure we have sufficiently long abbreviation not to
match either. If we do not have a hit, "first" is the smallest
among the objects that are larger than what we want to name, so we
check that and "first-1" to make sure we have sufficiently long
abbreviation not to match either. In either case, we only check up
to two near-by objects.

Minimize OID comparisons during disambiguation of packfile OIDs.
Teach git to use binary search with the full OID to find the object's
position (or insertion position, if not present) in the pack-index.
The object before and immediately after (or the one at the insertion
position) give the maximum common prefix. No subsequent linear search
is required.
Take care of which two to inspect, in case the object id exists in the
packfile.
If the input to find_unique_abbrev_r() is a partial prefix, then the
OID used for the binary search is padded with zeroes so the object will
not exist in the repo (with high probability) and the same logic
applies.
This commit completes a series of three changes to OID abbreviation
code, and the overall change can be seen using standard commands for
large repos. Below we report performance statistics for perf test 4211.6
from p4211-line-log.sh using three copies of the Linux repo:
| Packs | Loose | HEAD~3 | HEAD | Rel% |
|-------|--------|----------|----------|-------|
| 1 | 0 | 41.27 s | 38.93 s | -4.8% |
| 24 | 0 | 98.04 s | 91.35 s | -5.7% |
| 23 | 323952 | 117.78 s | 112.18 s | -4.8% |

Create get_hex_char_from_oid() to parse oids one hex character at a
time. This prevents unnecessary copying of hex characters in
extend_abbrev_len() when finding the length of a common prefix.

Unroll the while loop inside find_unique_abbrev_r to avoid iterating
through all loose objects and packfiles multiple times when the short
name is longer than the predicted length.
Instead, inspect each object that collides with the estimated
abbreviation to find the longest common prefix.
The focus of this change is to refactor the existing method in a way
that clearly does not change the current behavior. In some cases, the
new method is slower than the previous method. Later changes will
correct all performance loss.

Add a new perf test for testing the performance of log while computing
OID abbreviations. Using --oneline --raw and --parents options maximizes
the number of OIDs to abbreviate while still spending some time computing
diffs.

"git apply" that is used as a better "patch -p1" failed to apply a

endings. The root cause was because it misused convert_to_git()
that tried to do "safe-crlf" processing by looking at the index
entry at the same path, which is a nonsense---in that mode, "apply"
is not working on the data in (or derived from) the index at all.
