logmsg_reencode: lazily load missing commit buffers

Usually a commit that makes it to logmsg_reencode will have
been parsed, and the commit->buffer struct member will be
valid. However, some code paths will free commit buffers
after having used them (for example, the log traversal
machinery will do so to keep memory usage down).

Most of the time this is fine; log should only show a commit
once, and then exits. However, there are some code paths
where this does not work. At least two are known:

  1. A commit may be shown as part of a regular ref, and
     then it may be shown again as part of a submodule diff
     (e.g., if a repo contains refs to both the superproject
     and subproject).

  2. A notes-cache commit may be shown during "log --all",
     and then later used to access a textconv cache during a
     diff.

Lazily loading in logmsg_reencode does not necessarily catch
all such cases, but it should catch most of them. Users of
the commit buffer tend to be either parsing for structure
(in which they will call parse_commit, and either we will
already have parsed, or we will load commit->buffer lazily
there), or outputting (either to the user, or fetching a
part of the commit message via format_commit_message). In
the latter case, we should always be using logmsg_reencode
anyway (and typically we do so via the pretty-print
machinery).

If there are any cases that this misses, we can fix them up
to use logmsg_reencode (or handle them on a case-by-case
basis if that is inappropriate).

diff: cache textconv output

Running a textconv filter can take a long time. It's
particularly bad for a large file which needs to be spooled
to disk, but even for small files, the fork+exec overhead
can add up for something like "git log -p".

This patch uses the notes-cache mechanism to keep a fast
cache of textconv output. Caches are stored in
refs/notes/textconv/$x, where $x is the userdiff driver
defined in gitattributes.

Caching is enabled only if diff.$x.cachetextconv is true.

In my test repo, on a commit with 45 jpg and avi files
changed and a textconv to show their exif tags:

  [before]
  $ time git show >/dev/null
  real    0m13.724s
  user    0m12.057s
  sys     0m1.624s

  [after, first run]
  $ git config diff.mfo.cachetextconv true
  $ time git show >/dev/null
  real    0m14.252s
  user    0m12.197s
  sys     0m1.800s

  [after, subsequent runs]
  $ time git show >/dev/null
  real    0m0.352s
  user    0m0.148s
  sys     0m0.200s

So for a slight (3.8%) cost on the first run, we achieve an
almost 40x speed up on subsequent runs.
