git_signature_new() and git_signature_now() currently don't return error
codes. Change the API to return error codes and not pointers to let the
user handle errors properly.

This a very packed minor release. The usual guilty parties have been
working harder than usual during the holidays -- thanks to everyone
involved!
As always, the updated API docs can be found at:
http://libgit2.github.com/libgit2/
NEW FEATURES:
- New OS abstraction layer. This should make all POSIX calls much
more reliable under Windows.
- Much faster writes of simple objects (commits, tags, trees) to the
ODB via in-memory buffering and direct writes, instead of streaming.
- Unified & simplified API for object creation. All the `create`
methods now take Objects instead of OIDs to ensure that corrupted
(dangling) objects cannot be created on the repository.
- Fully Git-compilant reference renaming (finally!), with
the already existing `git_reference_rename`.
- Deletion of config keys with `git_config_delete`
- Greatly improved index performance when adding new entries
- Reflog support with the `git_reflog` API
- Remotes support with the `git_remote` API
- First parts of the Networking API, including refspecs and
the transport abstraction layer. (Note that there are no actual
transports implemented yet)
- Status support with the `git_status_foreach` and `git_status_file`
functions.
- Tons of bugfixes, including the outstanding bug #127 (wrong sort
ordering when querying tree entries).
KNOWN ISSUES:
- The reference renaming code leaks memory. This is being worked on
as part of a reference handling overhaul.
- The tree-from-index builder has abysmal performance because it
doesn't handle the Treecache extension yet. This is also being
worked on.

The `hashfile` function has been moved to ODB, next to `git_odb_hash`.
Global state has been removed from the dirent call in `status.c`,
because global state is killing the rainforest and causing global
warming.
Add git_status_hashfile() to get blob's object id for a file without adding
it to the object database or needing a repository at all.
This functionality is similar to `git hash-object` without '-w'.
So far libgit2 didn't support reference logs (reflog). Add a new
git_reflog_* API for basic reading and writing of reflogs:
* git_reflog_read
* git_reflog_write
* git_reflog_free

It removes all entries with equal path except last added.
On large indexes git_index_append() + git_index_uniq() before writing is
*much* faster, than git_index_add().

A bunch of redundant methods have been removed from the external API.
- All the reference/tag creation methods with `_f` are gone. The force
flag is now passed as an argument to the normal create methods.
- All the different commit creation methods are gone; commit creation
now always requires a `git_commit` pointer for parents and a `git_tree`
pointer for tree, to ensure that corrupted commits cannot be generated.
- All the different tag creation methods are gone; tag creation now
always requires a `git_object` pointer to ensure that tags are not
created to inexisting objects.
Remove the unused repo and private pointers and make the direction a
flag, as it can only have two states. Change the connect signature to
use an int instead of git_net_direction and remove that enum.

Rather than an 'private' pointer, make the private structures inherit
from the generic git_transport struct. This way, we only have to worry
about one memory allocation instead of two. The structures are so
simple that this may even make the code use less memory overall.
