Newer regex library macOS stopped enabling GNU-like enhanced BRE,
where '\(A\|B\)' works as alternation, unless explicitly asked with
the REG_ENHANCED flag. "git grep" now can be compiled to do so, to
retain the old behaviour.

On platforms where `size_t` does not have the same width as `unsigned
long`, passing a pointer to the former when a pointer to the latter is
expected can lead to problems.
Windows and 32-bit Linux are among the affected platforms.
In this instance, we want to store the size of the blob that was read in
that variable. However, `read_blob_data_from_index()` passes that
pointer to `read_object_file()` which expects an `unsigned long *`.
Which means that on affected platforms, the variable is not fully
populated and part of its value is left uninitialized. (On Big-Endian
platforms, this problem would be even worse.)
The consequence is that depending on the uninitialized memory's
contents, we may erroneously reject perfectly fine attributes.
Let's address this by passing a pointer to a variable of the expected
data type.

In hash_object(), we open a descriptor for each file to hash (whether we
got the filename from the command line or --stdin-paths), but never
close it. For the traditional code path, which feeds the result to
index_fd(), this is OK; it closes the descriptor for us.
But 5ba9a93b39 (hash-object: add --literally option, 2014-09-11) added a
second code path, which does not close the descriptor. There we need to
do so ourselves.
You can see the problem in a clone of git.git like this:
$ git ls-files -s | grep ^100644 | cut -f2 |
git hash-object --stdin-paths --literally >/dev/null
fatal: could not open 'builtin/var.c' for reading: Too many open files
After this patch, it completes successfully. I didn't bother with a
test, as it's a pain to deal with descriptor limits portably, and the
fix is so trivial.

"git branch -f name start" forces to recreate the named branch, but
the forcing does not defeat the "do not touch a branch that is
checked out elsewhere" safety valve.
