sha1_file: fix error message for alternate objects

When we fail to open a corrupt loose object, we report an
error and mention the filename via sha1_file_name().
However, that function will always give us a path in the
local repository, whereas the corrupt object may have come
from an alternate. The result is a very misleading error
message.

Teach the open_sha1_file() and stat_sha1_file() helpers to
pass back the path they found, so that we can report it
correctly.

Note that the pointers we return go to static storage (e.g.,
from sha1_file_name()), which is slightly dangerous.
However, these helpers are static local helpers, and the
names are used for immediately generating error messages.
The simplicity is an acceptable tradeoff for the danger.
