type_from_string_gently: make sure length matches
When commit fe8e3b7 refactored type_from_string to allow input that was not NUL-terminated, it switched to using strncmp instead of strcmp. But this means we check only the first "len" bytes of the strings, and ignore any remaining bytes in the object_type_string. We should make sure that it is also "len" bytes, or else we would accept "comm" as "commit", and so forth. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
