The ".git/obects/17/" shard is somewhat special because it is used by
git-gc(1) to estimate how many objects there are by extrapolating the
number of objects in that shard, only. In t6500 we thus have a hard
coded set of data that, when written to the object database, result in
blobs starting with that prefix.
We are about to need such "17"-prefixed objects in another test suite.
Extract them into "t/oid-info/hash-info" so that they can be reused by
other tests.

When we look up a missing object with cat_one_file() what error we
print out currently depends on whether we'll error out early in
get_oid_with_context(), or if we'll get an error later from
oid_object_info_extended().
The --allow-unknown-type flag then changes whether we pass the
"OBJECT_INFO_ALLOW_UNKNOWN_TYPE" flag to get_oid_with_context() or
not.
The "-p" flag is yet another special-case in printing the same output
on the deadbeef OID as we'd emit on the deadbeef_short OID for the
"-s" and "-t" options, it also doesn't support the
"--allow-unknown-type" flag at all.
Let's test the combination of the two sets of [-t, -s, -p] and
[--{no-}allow-unknown-type] (the --no-allow-unknown-type is implicit
in not supplying it), as well as a [missing,bogus] object pair.
This extends tests added in 3e370f9faf (t1006: add tests for git
cat-file --allow-unknown-type, 2015-05-03).

Drop the last remnant of "sha1" in this file and rename it to reflect
that we're not just able to handle SHA-1 these days.

The testsuite will eventually learn how to run using an algorithm other
than SHA-1. In preparation for this, teach the test_oid family of
functions how to look up the empty blob and empty tree values so they
can be used.

The test_oid function provides a mechanism for looking up hash algorithm
information, but it doesn't specify a way to discover the hash algorithm
name. Knowing this information is useful if one wants to invoke the
test-tool helper for the algorithm in use, such as in our pack
generation library.
While it's currently possible to inspect the global variable holding
this value, in the future we'll allow specifying an algorithm for
storage and an algorithm for display, so it's better to abstract this
value away. To assist with this, provide a named entry in the
algorithm-specific lookup table that prints the algorithm in use.

Add several test functions to make working with various hash-related
values easier.
Add test_oid_init, which loads common hash-related constants and
placeholder object IDs from the newly added files in t/oid-info.
Provide values for these constants for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Add test_oid_cache, which accepts data on standard input in the form of
hash-specific key-value pairs that can be looked up later, using the
same format as the files in t/oid-info. Document this format in a
t/oid-info/README directory so that it's easier to use in the future.
Add test_oid, which is used to specify look up a per-hash value
(produced on standard output) based on the key specified as its
argument. Usually the data to be looked up will be a hash-related
constant (such as the size of the hash in binary or hexadecimal), a
well-known or placeholder object ID (such as the all-zeros object ID or
one consisting of "deadbeef" repeated), or something similar. For these
reasons, test_oid will usually be used within a command substitution.
Consequently, redirect the error output to standard error, since
otherwise it will not be displayed.
Add test_detect_hash, which currently only detects SHA-1, and
test_set_hash, which can be used to set a different hash algorithm for
test purposes. In the future, test_detect_hash will learn to actually
detect the hash depending on how the testsuite is to be run.
Use the local keyword within these functions to avoid overwriting other
shell variables. We have had a test balloon in place for a couple of
releases to catch shells that don't have this keyword and have not
received any reports of failure. Note that the varying usages of local
used here are supported by all common open-source shells supporting the
local keyword.
Test these new functions as part of t0000, which also serves to
demonstrate basic usage of them. In addition, add documentation on how
to format the lookup data and how to use the test functions.
Implement two basic lookup charts, one for common invalid or synthesized
object IDs, and one for various facts about the hash function in use.
Provide versions of the data for both SHA-1 and SHA-256.
Since we use shell variables for storage, names used for lookup can
currently consist only of shell identifier characters. If this is a
problem in the future, we can hash the names before use.
