Merge branch 'tl/ls-tree-oid-only'
"git ls-tree" learns "--oid-only" option, similar to "--name-only",
and more generalized "--format" option.
* tl/ls-tree-oid-only:
ls-tree: split up "fast path" callbacks
ls-tree: detect and error on --name-only --name-status
ls-tree: support --object-only option for "git-ls-tree"
ls-tree: introduce "--format" option
cocci: allow padding with `strbuf_addf()`
ls-tree: introduce struct "show_tree_data"
ls-tree: slightly refactor `show_tree()`
ls-tree: fix "--name-only" and "--long" combined use bug
ls-tree: simplify nesting if/else logic in "show_tree()"
ls-tree: rename "retval" to "recurse" in "show_tree()"
ls-tree: use "size_t", not "int" for "struct strbuf"'s "len"
ls-tree: use "enum object_type", not {blob,tree,commit}_type
ls-tree: add missing braces to "else" arms
ls-tree: remove commented-out code
ls-tree tests: add tests for --name-status
