tree_entry(): new tree-walking helper function

This adds a "tree_entry()" function that combines the common operation of
doing a "tree_entry_extract()" + "update_tree_entry()".

It also has a simplified calling convention, designed for simple loops
that traverse over a whole tree: the arguments are pointers to the tree
descriptor and a name_entry structure to fill in, and it returns a boolean
"true" if there was an entry left to be gotten in the tree.

This allows tree traversal with

	struct tree_desc desc;
	struct name_entry entry;

	desc.buf = tree->buffer;
	desc.size = tree->size;
	while (tree_entry(&desc, &entry) {
		... use "entry.{path, sha1, mode, pathlen}" ...
	}

which is not only shorter than writing it out in full, it's hopefully less
error prone too.

[ It's actually a tad faster too - we don't need to recalculate the entry
  pathlength in both extract and update, but need to do it only once.
  Also, some callers can avoid doing a "strlen()" on the result, since
  it's returned as part of the name_entry structure.

  However, by now we're talking just 1% speedup on "git-rev-list --objects
  --all", and we're definitely at the point where tree walking is no
  longer the issue any more. ]

NOTE! Not everybody wants to use this new helper function, since some of
the tree walkers very much on purpose do the descriptor update separately
from the entry extraction. So the "extract + update" sequence still
remains as the core sequence, this is just a simplified interface.

We should probably add a silly two-line inline helper function for
initializing the descriptor from the "struct tree" too, just to cut down
on the noise from that common "desc" initializer.

get_tree_entry(): make it available from tree-walk

tree/diff header cleanup.

Introduce tree-walk.[ch] and move "struct tree_desc" and
associated functions from various places.

Rename DIFF_FILE_CANON_MODE(mode) macro to canon_mode(mode) and
move it to cache.h.  This macro returns the canonicalized
st_mode value in the host byte order for files, symlinks and
directories -- to be compared with a tree_desc entry.
create_ce_mode(mode) in cache.h is similar but is intended to be
used for index entries (so it does not work for directories) and
returns the value in the network byte order.
