Use of the `the_repository` variable is deprecated nowadays, and we
slowly but steadily convert the codebase to not use it anymore. Instead,
callers should be passing down the repository to work on via parameters.
It is hard though to prove that a given code unit does not use this
variable anymore. The most trivial case, merely demonstrating that there
is no direct use of `the_repository`, is already a bit of a pain during
code reviews as the reviewer needs to manually verify claims made by the
patch author. The bigger problem though is that we have many interfaces
that implicitly rely on `the_repository`.
Introduce a new `USE_THE_REPOSITORY_VARIABLE` macro that allows code
units to opt into usage of `the_repository`. The intent of this macro is
to demonstrate that a certain code unit does not use this variable
anymore, and to keep it from new dependencies on it in future changes,
be it explicit or implicit
For now, the macro only guards `the_repository` itself as well as
`the_hash_algo`. There are many more known interfaces where we have an
implicit dependency on `the_repository`, but those are not guarded at
the current point in time. Over time though, we should start to add
guards as required (or even better, just remove them).
Define the macro as required in our code units. As expected, most of our
code still relies on the global variable. Nearly all of our builtins
rely on the variable as there is no way yet to pass `the_repository` to
their entry point. For now, declare the macro in "biultin.h" to keep the
required changes at least a little bit more contained.

Since this header showed up in some places besides just #include
statements, update/clean-up/remove those other places as well.
Note that compat/fsmonitor/fsm-path-utils-darwin.c previously got
away with violating the rule that all files must start with an include
of git-compat-util.h (or a short-list of alternate headers that happen
to include it first). This change exposed the violation and caused it
to stop building correctly; fix it by having it include
git-compat-util.h first, as per policy.

For the functions defined in read-cache.c, move their declarations from
cache.h to a new header, read-cache-ll.h. Also move some related inline
functions from cache.h to read-cache.h. The purpose of the
read-cache-ll.h/read-cache.h split is that about 70% of the sites don't
need the inline functions and the extra headers they include.

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.

Dozens of files made use of gettext functions, without explicitly
including gettext.h. This made it more difficult to find which files
could remove a dependence on cache.h. Make C files explicitly include
gettext.h if they are using it.
However, while compat/fsmonitor/fsm-ipc-darwin.c should also gain an
include of gettext.h, it was left out to avoid conflicting with an
in-flight topic.

In a preceding commit we fully applied the
"index-compatibility.pending.cocci" rule to "t/helper/*".
Let's now stop defining "USE_THE_INDEX_COMPATIBILITY_MACROS" in
test-tool.h itself, and instead instead define
"USE_THE_INDEX_VARIABLE" in the individual test helpers that need
it. This mirrors how we do the same thing in the "builtin/" directory.

Add a performance test comparing the execution times of 'prime_cache_tree()'
and 'cache_tree_update(_, WRITE_TREE_SILENT | WRITE_TREE_REPAIR)'. The goal
of comparing these two is to identify which is the faster method for
rebuilding an invalid cache tree, ultimately to remove one when both are
(reundantly) called in immediate succession.
Both methods are fast, so the new tests in 'p0090-cache-tree.sh' must call
each tested function multiple times to ensure the reported times (to 0.01s
resolution) convey the differences between them.
The tests compare the timing of a 'test-tool cache-tree' run as a no-op (to
capture a baseline for the overhead associated with running the tool),
'cache_tree_update()', and 'prime_cache_tree()' on four scenarios:
- A completely valid cache tree
- A cache tree with 2 invalid paths
- A cache tree with 50 invalid paths
- A completely empty cache tree
Example results:
Test this tree
-----------------------------------------------------------
0090.2: no-op, clean 1.27(0.48+0.52)
0090.3: prime_cache_tree, clean 2.02(0.83+0.85)
0090.4: cache_tree_update, clean 1.30(0.49+0.54)
0090.5: no-op, invalidate 2 1.29(0.48+0.54)
0090.6: prime_cache_tree, invalidate 2 1.98(0.81+0.83)
0090.7: cache_tree_update, invalidate 2 2.12(0.94+0.86)
0090.8: no-op, invalidate 50 1.32(0.50+0.55)
0090.9: prime_cache_tree, invalidate 50 2.10(0.86+0.89)
0090.10: cache_tree_update, invalidate 50 2.35(1.14+0.90)
0090.11: no-op, empty 1.33(0.50+0.54)
0090.12: prime_cache_tree, empty 2.04(0.84+0.87)
0090.13: cache_tree_update, empty 2.51(1.27+0.92)
These timings show that, while 'cache_tree_update()' is faster when the
cache tree is completely valid, it is equal to or slower than
'prime_cache_tree()' when there are any invalid paths. Since the redundant
calls are mostly in scenarios where the cache tree will be at least
partially invalid (e.g., 'git reset --hard'), 'prime_cache_tree()' will
likely perform better than 'cache_tree_update()' in typical cases.
