Elijah Newren ef3ca95475 Add missing includes and forward declarations
I looped over the toplevel header files, creating a temporary two-line C
program for each consisting of
  #include "git-compat-util.h"
  #include $HEADER
This patch is the result of manually fixing errors in compiling those
tiny programs.

/*
* Iterate over a directory tree.
*
* Iterate over a directory tree, recursively, including paths of all
* types and hidden paths. Skip "." and ".." entries and don't follow
* symlinks except for the original path.
*
* Every time dir_iterator_advance() is called, update the members of
* the dir_iterator structure to reflect the next path in the
* iteration. The order that paths are iterated over within a
* directory is undefined, but directory paths are always iterated
* over before the subdirectory contents.
*
* A typical iteration looks like this:
*
* int ok;
* struct iterator *iter = dir_iterator_begin(path);
*
* while ((ok = dir_iterator_advance(iter)) == ITER_OK) {
* if (want_to_stop_iteration()) {
* ok = dir_iterator_abort(iter);
* break;
* }
*
* // Access information about the current path:
* if (S_ISDIR(iter->st.st_mode))
* printf("%s is a directory\n", iter->relative_path);
* }
*
* if (ok != ITER_DONE)
* handle_error();
*
* Callers are allowed to modify iter->path while they are working,
* but they must restore it to its original contents before calling
* dir_iterator_advance() again.
