Jonathan Tan b4e00f7306 packfile: refactor hash search with fanout table
Subsequent patches will introduce file formats that make use of a fanout
array and a sorted table containing hashes, just like packfiles.
Refactor the hash search in packfile.c into its own function, so that
those patches can make use of it as well.

/*
* Conventional binary search loop looks like this:
*
* do {
* int mi = lo + (hi - lo) / 2;
* int cmp = "entry pointed at by mi" minus "target";
* if (!cmp)
* return (mi is the wanted one)
* if (cmp > 0)
* hi = mi; "mi is larger than target"
* else
* lo = mi+1; "mi is smaller than target"
* } while (lo < hi);
*
* The invariants are:
*
* - When entering the loop, lo points at a slot that is never
* above the target (it could be at the target), hi points at a
* slot that is guaranteed to be above the target (it can never
* be at the target).
*
* - We find a point 'mi' between lo and hi (mi could be the same
* as lo, but never can be the same as hi), and check if it hits
* the target. There are three cases:
*
* - if it is a hit, we are happy.
*
* - if it is strictly higher than the target, we update hi with
* it.
*
* - if it is strictly lower than the target, we update lo to be
* one slot after it, because we allow lo to be at the target.
*
* When choosing 'mi', we do not have to take the "middle" but
* anywhere in between lo and hi, as long as lo <= mi < hi is
* satisfied. When we somehow know that the distance between the
* target and lo is much shorter than the target and hi, we could
* pick mi that is much closer to lo than the midway.
