It was not being used by any methods (only by malloc and calloc), and
since it needs to be TLS, it cannot be exported on DLLs on Windows.
Burn it with fire. The API always returns error codes!

The constructor to git_repository is now called
'git_repository_open(path)'
and takes a path to a git repository instead of an existing ODB object.
Unit tests have been updated accordingly and the two test repositories
have been merged into one.

On windows, unless we use the O_BINARY flag in the open()
call, the file I/O routines will perform line ending
conversion (\r\n => \n on input, \n => \r\n on output).
In addition to the performance penalty, most files in the
object database are binary and will, therefore, become
corrupted by this conversion.

In particular, using pointer arithmetic on void pointers,
despite being quite useful, is not legal in standard C.
Avoiding non-standard C constructs will help in porting

Win32 has a variant of mmap that is harder to use than POSIX, but
to run natively and efficiently on Win32 we need some form of it.
gitfo_map_ro() provides a basic mmap function for use in locations
where we need read-only random data access to large ranges of a file,
such as a pack-*.idx.

Our fileops API is currently private. We aren't planning on supplying
a cross-platform file API to applications that link to us. If we did,
we'd probably whole-sale publish fileops, not just the dirent code.
By moving it to be private we can also change the call signature to
permit the buffer to be passed down through the call chain. This is
very helpful when we are doing a recursive scan as we can reuse just
one buffer in all stack frames, reducing the impact the recursion has
on the stack frames in the data cache.

This error code indicates the OS error code has a better value
describing the last error, as it is likely a network or local
file IO problem identified by a C library function call.

We now forbid direct use of malloc, strdup or calloc within the
library and instead use wrapper functions git__malloc, etc. to
invoke the underlying library malloc and set git_errno to a no
memory error code if the allocation fails.
In the future once we have pack objects in memory we are likely
to enhance these routines with garbage collection logic to purge
cached pack data when allocations fail. Because the size of the
function will grow somewhat large, we don't want to mark them for
inline as gcc tends to aggressively inline, creating larger than
expected executables.

In particular, when asked to read an empty file, this function
calls malloc() with a zero size allocation request. Standard C
says that the behaviour of malloc() in this case is implementation
defined.
[C99, 7.20.3 says "... If the size of the space requested is zero,
the behavior is implementation-defined: either a null pointer is
returned, or the behavior is as if the size were some nonzero
value, except that the returned pointer shall not be used to
access an object."]
Finesse the issue by over-allocating by one byte. Setting the extra
byte to '\0' may also provide a useful sentinel for text files.

In particular, the gitfo_read_file() routine can be used to slurp
the complete file contents into an gitfo_buf structure. The buffer
content will be allocated by malloc() and may be released by the
gitfo_free_buf() routine. The io buffer type can be initialised
on the stack with the GITFO_BUF_INIT macro.

The PATH_MAX symbol is often, but not always, defined
in the <limits.h> header. In particular, on cygwin you
need to include this header to avoid a compilation error.
However, some systems define PATH_MAX to be something as
small as 256, which POSIX is happy to allow, while others
allow much larger values. In general it can vary from
one filesystem to another.
In order to avoid the vagaries of different systems, define
our own symbol.

Since at least MS have something like GetFirstDirEnt() and
GetNextDirEnt() (presumably with superior performance), we
can let MS hackers add support for a dirent walker using
that API instead, while we stick with the posix-style
readdir() calls.

The idea is taken from Junio's work in read-cache.c, where
it's used for writing out the index without tap-dancing on
the poor harddrive. Since it's almost certainly useful for
cached writing of packfiles too, we turn it into a generic
API, making it perfectly simple to reuse it later.
gitfo_write_cached() has the same contract as gitfo_write(), it
returns GIT_SUCCESS if all bytes are successfully written (or were
at least buffered for later writing), and <0 if an error occurs
during buffer writing.

Since it doesn't make sense to make the disk access stuff
portable *AND* public (that's a job for each application
imo), we can take a shortcut and just support unixy stuff
for now and get away with coding most of it as macros.
Since we go with an internal API for starters and only
provide higher-level API's to the libgit users, we'll be
ok with this approach.
