This finally removes the tree-entry list from "struct tree", since most of
the users can just use the tree-walk infrastructure to walk the raw tree
buffers instead of the tree-entry list.
The tree-entry list is inefficient, and generates tons of small
allocations for no good reason. The tree-walk infrastructure is generally
no harder to use than following a linked list, and allows us to do most
tree parsing in-place.
Some programs still use the old tree-entry lists, and are a bit painful to
convert without major surgery. For them we have a helper function that
creates a temporary tree-entry list on demand. We can convert those too
eventually, but with this they no longer affect any users who don't need
the explicit lists.

This is preparatory work for further cleanups, where we try to make
tree_entry look more like the more efficient tree-walk descriptor.
Instead of having a union of pointers to blob/tree/objects, this just
makes "struct tree_entry" have the raw SHA1, and makes all the users use
that instead (often that implies adding a "lookup_tree(..)" on the sha1,
but sometimes the user just wanted the SHA1 in the first place, and it
just avoids an unnecessary indirection).

This allows us to avoid allocating information for names etc, because
we can just use the information from the tree buffer directly.
We still keep the old "tree_entry_list" in struct tree as well, so old
users aren't affected, apart from the fact that the allocations are
different (if you free a tree entry, you should no longer free the name
allocation for it, since it's allocated as part of "tree->buffer")

Martin Langhoff points out that "git repack -a" ends up using up a lot of
memory for big archives, and that git cvsimport probably should do only
incremental repacks in order to avoid having repacking flush all the
caches.
The big majority of the memory usage of repacking is from git rev-list
tracking all objects, and this patch should go a long way in avoiding the
excessive memory usage: the bulk of it was due to the object names being
leaked from the tree parser.
For the historic Linux kernel archive, this simple patch does:
Before:
/usr/bin/time git-rev-list --all --objects > /dev/null
72.45user 0.82system 1:13.55elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+125376minor)pagefaults 0swaps
After:
/usr/bin/time git-rev-list --all --objects > /dev/null
75.22user 0.48system 1:16.34elapsed 99%CPU (0avgtext+0avgdata 0maxresident)k
0inputs+0outputs (0major+43921minor)pagefaults 0swaps
where we do end up wasting a bit of time on some extra strdup()s (which
could be avoided, but that would require tracking where the pathnames came
from), but we avoid a lot of memory usage.
Minor page faults track maximum RSS very closely (each page fault maps in
one page into memory), so the reduction from 125376 page faults to 43921
means a rough reduction of VM footprint from almost half a gigabyte to
about a third of that. Those numbers were also double-checked by looking
at "top" while the process was running.
(Side note: at least part of the remaining VM footprint is the mapping of
the 177MB pack-file, so the remaining memory use is at least partly "well
behaved" from a project caching perspective).
For the current git archive itself, the memory usage for a "--all
--objects" rev-list invocation dropped from 7128 pages to 2318 (27MB to
9MB), so the reduction seems to hold for much smaller projects too.
For regular "git-rev-list" usage (ie without the "--objects" flag) this
patch has no impact.

This patch touches a couple of files, because it adds options to print a
custom text just after the subject of a commit, and just after the
diffstat.
[jc: made "many dashes" used as the boundary leader into a single
variable, to reduce the possibility of later tweaks to miscount the
number of dashes to break it.]

This was surprisingly easy. The diff is truly minimal: rename "main()" to
"cmd_rev_list()" in rev-list.c, and rename the whole file to reflect its
new built-in status.
