In order to further reduce all-in-one headers, separate out functions in
hex.h that do not operate on object hashes into its own file, hex-ll.h,
and update the include directives in the .c files that need only such
functions accordingly.

The naming convention around get_sha1_hex() and its friends is
awkward these days, after "struct object_id" was introduced.
There are three public functions around this area:
* get_sha1_hex() - use the implied the_hash_algo, fill uchar *
* get_oid_hex() - use the implied the_hash_algo, fill oid *
* get_oid_hex_algop() - use the passed algop, fill oid *
Between the latter two, the "_algop" suffix signals whether the
the_hash_algo is used as the implied algorithm or the caller should
pass an algorithm explicitly. That is very much understandable and
is a good convention.
Between the former two, however, the "SHA1" vs "OID" in the names
differentiate in what type of variable the result is stored.
We could argue that it makes sense to use "SHA1" to mean "flat byte
buffer" to honor the historical practice in the days before "struct
object_id" was invented, but the natural fourth friend of the above
group would take an algop and fill a flat byte buffer, and it would
be strange to name it get_sha1_hex_algop(). Do we use the passed in
algo, or are we limited to SHA-1 ;-)?
In fact, such a function exists, albeit as a private helper function
used by the implementation of these functions, and is named a lot
more sensibly: get_hash_hex_algop().
Correct the misnomer of get_sha1_hex() and use "hash", instead of
"sha1", as "flat byte buffer that stores binary (as opposed to
hexadecimal) representation of the hash".
The four (2x2) friends now become:
* get_hash_hex() - use the implied the_hash_algo, fill uchar *
* get_oid_hex() - use the implied the_hash_algo, fill oid *
* get_hash_hex_algop() - use the passed algop, fill uchar *
* get_oid_hex_algop() - use the passed algop, fill oid *
As there are only two remaining calls to get_sha1_hex() in the
codebase right now, the blast radious of this change is fairly
small.

hash.h depends upon and includes repository.h, due to the definition and
use of the_hash_algo (defined as the_repository->hash_algo). However,
most headers trying to include hash.h are only interested in the layout
of the structs like object_id. Move the parts of hash.h that do not
depend upon repository.h into a new file hash-ll.h (the "low level"
parts of hash.h), and adjust other files to use this new header where
the convenience inline functions aren't needed.
This allows hash.h and object.h to be fairly small, minimal headers. It
also exposes a lot of hidden dependencies on both path.h (which was
brought in by repository.h) and repository.h (which was previously
implicitly brought in by object.h), so also adjust other files to be
more explicit about what they depend upon.

hex.c contains code for hex-related functions, but for some reason these
functions were declared in the catch-all cache.h. Move the function
declarations into a hex.h header instead.
This also allows us to remove includes of cache.h from a few C files.
For now, we make cache.h include hex.h, so that it is easier to review
the direct changes being made by this patch. In the next patch, we will
remove that, and add the necessary direct '#include "hex.h"' in the
hundreds of C files that need it.
Note that reviewing the header changes in this commit might be
simplified via
git log --no-walk -p --color-moved $COMMIT -- '*.h'`
In particular, it highlights the simple movement of code in .h files
rather nicely.
