cat-file: teach cat-file a '--allow-unknown-type' option
'git cat-file' throws an error while trying to print the type or
size of a broken/corrupt object. This is because these objects are
usually of unknown types.
Teach git cat-file a '--allow-unknown-type' option where it prints
the type or size of a broken/corrupt object without throwing
an error.
Modify '-t' and '-s' options to call sha1_object_info_extended()
directly to support the '--allow-unknown-type' option.
Add documentation for 'cat-file --allow-unknown-type'.
